You may remember an article posted here previously about a second “Downton Abbey” weekend at Sea Island, Georgia. Jessica Fellowes, niece of Julian Fellowes, will be returning and will be bringing Raquel Cassidy (Ms. Baxter) and Kevin Doyle (Mr. Moseley) with her. Last week, Sea Island announced they will be tripling the drama with the addition of Laura Carmichael (Lady Edith Crawley) to this star-studded lineup!

Ms. Carmichael will be joining Ms. Cassidy, Mr. Doyle and Ms. Fellowes for the full lineup of events at Sea Island. Some events have sold out or are otherwise not available, but many of the complimentary events (Q&A sessions, for example) and the costume party and episode viewing ($125/pp, includes a three course dinner, wine pairing and cocktail hour) are still open for booking. You can visit the Sea Island website or call 1-855-604-1313 for reservations.

I’m also happy to announce that both "Desperate for Downton" bloggers will be attending the "Downton Abbey" weekend at Sea Island this year! If you are attending, please feel free to say hello to Rosemary Jean-Louis or me, Rachel Buchman. 

I’d recommend not missing the costume party and screening! I attended this fantastic event last year with Jessica Fellowes and Allen Leech (Tom Branson) and had an amazing time. You can check out my photo gallery and full report right here on GPB.

See you at Sea Island!
