The Detroit Bridgerton Ball has been criticized as a fraudulent event.
The highly anticipated Bridgerton Ball event, which took place in Detroit on September 22, has left many guests feeling scammed and disappointed. The event had been heavily promoted, promising a night of sophistication, grace, and historical charm in the enchanting world of the Regency era. However, the reality was far from what was advertised.

Nita Morton, a devoted fan of the popular Netflix show Bridgerton, was one of the many guests who were left in tears after attending the event. She described being greeted by minimal decorations, a lone violin player, and a pole dancer, along with undercooked chicken and soggy food. "It was the worst event I've been to," Nita told BBC. "Even my high school parties were better. I was expecting a grand feast with turkey, ham, and an array of desserts like macaroons, but all we got was soggy noodles and small chicken wings covered in tomato sauce."

The disappointment of the Bridgerton Ball quickly spread like wildfire on social media, with guests paying up to $200 for their tickets and even more for custom-made dresses and shoes to fit the theme. Pictures and videos of guests sitting on the floor in their fancy ball gowns due to a lack of chairs, and leaving early once the food ran out, were circulating online. According to some attendees, dinner was finished within an hour, and some of the dishes were barely cooked.

Uncle & Me LLC, the company responsible for organizing the event, was quick to respond to the backlash. They clarified that the event was not affiliated with Netflix or Shondaland, the production company behind Bridgerton, and that they were working to address the concerns raised by the disappointed guests. "We apologize to those who did not have the experience they were hoping for at our event on Sunday night at The Harmonie Club," they stated. "We wanted to provide a magical evening, but we acknowledge that there were some organizational challenges that affected the enjoyment of our guests. We take full responsibility for these shortcomings and are currently reviewing options to make things right."

Despite their efforts to make amends, guests who had purchased tickets were disappointed with the lack of communication from Uncle & Me LLC. The company's website was inaccessible since the event, and the event site had been taken down amidst the growing backlash. One couple, Pedro Soto and his wife, had attended the Bridgerton Ball as a celebration of their recent elopement. They were expecting to be transported into the world of their favorite show, but instead, they were met with disorganization and disappointment. "We were promised food, a bar, and at least a table and chair to enjoy our evening. We were even told there would be an orchestra. But all we got was Kool-Aid from a bottle and not enough seats and chairs," Soto recalled. "We had to reuse cups and plates, and the backdrops were just paper. It was nothing like what was advertised. Even the photographs were an extra cost."

In addition to the lack of organization, many guests were also disappointed with the entertainment for the night. Some described being greeted by an "exotic dancer on a pole," which was not what they were expecting for a Regency-themed event.

Aerial performer and dancer Tink, who had been hired to perform at the Bridgerton Ball, spoke out about her experience with the company after receiving backlash from disappointed guests. Tink revealed that she had been hired just three hours before the event and was asked to perform a pole routine. Despite the criticism she received, Tink made it clear that her performance and her outfit, which had stirred controversy, were both approved by the company. "As a performer, my goal is to bring happiness and joy to everyone. So it was disheartening to know that the patrons were unhappy with the outcome," she stated.

It's unfortunate that such a highly anticipated event turned out to be a disappointment for many guests. The Bridgerton Ball was an opportunity for fans to immerse themselves in the world of their favorite show, but instead, it left many feeling scammed and let down. Hopefully, the company behind the event will take responsibility and make things right for those who attended.
