MULTI-DAY
IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE
COMMUNITY
INTENTIONAL & GENUINE
Not a vacation. A homecoming.
Our Fantasy & Mermaid Retreats are multi-day immersive experiences designed for women who have forgotten what it feels like to play, create, and simply be. Or for those looking to get away, have fun, and connect with other bright women.
We blend healing workshops, costumed photoshoots, storytelling, confidence work, connection, and a whole lot of magic into a few days that will stay with you for years.
This isn’t about performing. It’s about remembering who you were before the world told you to be practical. It’s about community and genuine relationships that will last for years, and it’s about the
What you'll actually do
Every element of the retreat is chosen with intention. Here’s what’s woven into each gathering.
Fantasy Photoshoots
Leave the ordinary behind. Arrive in your most enchanting attire (mermaid tails available to rent), and step into photoshoots that don’t just capture how you look, but who you truly are.
Healing Workshops
Select retreats include gentle guided workshops: think confidence, creativity, and emotional expression, minus the buzzwords and the pressure. Just good conversation, and the breakthroughs that tend to follow.
Storytelling & Play
This isn’t a retreat you watch from the sidelines. You’re part of the story from the moment you arrive. You’ll discover a version of yourself that’s been quietly waiting in the wings.
Nourishment & Rest
Real meals, real rest, and real downtime. We believe retreat means actually retreating. No hustle energy allowed inside these walls. Fun, comforting, peaceful, & renewing vibes only.
Community & Connection
Small groups. Intentional connection. The women you meet here tend to become the ones you call years later. That’s not an accident, it’s by design.
Rituals & Ceremony
Opening and closing ceremonies that hold the container of the experience. You arrive as yourself and you’ll leave with something you can’t quite name, but you’ll feel it.
You belong here if...
- You've been running on empty and need to do something for you
- You're a creative (writer, performer, artist, dreamer) who's lost the spark
- You've always been secretly enchanted by mermaids, fairies, and magic
- You want real connection with women who actually get it
- You're in the middle of a chapter transition and need space to figure out what comes next
- You've never done anything like this and that's exactly why you should
- You saw this page and felt something. That feeling is your answer
“For the woman who has always felt the pull of something more. Who grew up believing in magic and never fully stopped, even when the world asked her to. Who reads fantasy, collects crystals, cries at sunsets, and feels things deeper than she can always explain. You were never too much. You were just waiting for your people.”
-Shannon Scott, Founder
Every kind of woman. One thing in common.
The Burned-Out Creative
She used to make things. Write things. Dream things. Life got loud and her creativity went quiet. She’s ready to find it again.
The Woman in Transition
New chapter. Career shift. Empty nest. Divorce. She needs space to hear herself think, and people around her who won’t rush her.
The One Who Just Knows
She can’t fully explain it. She just saw this and knew she needed to be here. That gut feeling has never steered her wrong before.
The Starlight Gathering House of Stories
The Starlight Gathering: House of Stories is the largest, most immersive experience we offer at The Bright Stars Greenroom, and we built it that way on purpose.
One breathtaking private house. Eighteen bright, beautiful souls. A fully realized fantasy world wrapped around all of it. Built on community, story, and the kind of magic that only happens when the right women end up in the same space at the same time.
Think costumed photoshoots, dancing, swimming, and fantasy events that feel like they were pulled straight from the pages of a story you’ve always wanted to live in. Think community that wraps around you like a warm cloak on the first cool night of autumn. Think every detail taken care of, because it is. Everything is included. All you have to do is show up and let yourself be enchanted.
Shannon and Jackie have poured themselves into every detail of this experience, working side by side to make sure your stay feels magical from the moment you arrive to the moment you reluctantly have to leave.
Eighteen spots. One house. One story, and you’re in it.
Fantasy Photoshoots
Fantasy photoshoots that will excite your soul. These are images you will treasure for the rest of your life that will capture your full magic!
Stay in a Beautiful House
You won’t be in a hotel room. You’ll be living inside the story: a gorgeous private home that sets the tone from the moment you arrive.
Dance the Night Away
An evening to celebrate you, exactly as you are, in all your glory. Come as your character. Come as yourself. Both are welcome.
Fantasy Activities & Community
Themed experiences, creative play, and genuine connection woven throughout every day. You’ll leave with a community, not just memories.
All Meals Included
Every meal, every snack, every gathering around the table is all taken care of. Your only job is to be present and enjoy.
And More Magic in the Works
Additional fantasy experiences are being woven into the program as we speak. Stay tuned, becuase the story is still being written.
“You will never know how far you will go until you start taking chances on yourself.”
Into the Water The Mermaid Experience
Small. Intimate. Deeply magical. This is the retreat for the woman who has always felt most like herself near the water, and is finally ready to step all the way in.
Right here in Florida, a small circle of women will gather for a water-focused fantasy experience built around connection, confidence, and the particular kind of freedom that only comes from floating in something bigger than yourself.
Styled mermaid photoshoots, gentle healing workshops, community around the water’s edge, and the space to simply breathe. No rushing. No performing. Just you, the water, and women who get it.
Already a mermaid? Bring your tail. Just becoming one? We have silicone tail rentals waiting for you.
Either way, you belong in this water.
Mermaid Photoshoots
Fully styled, in and around the water. Images that show you who you’ve always been underneath it all.
Water Therapy
Time in, on, and beside the water woven throughout. Florida was made for this kind of healing magic.
Healing & Rest
Gentle workshops, Restorative Sound Healing Therapy, and real downtime. Small group means deeper breakthroughs.
Intimate Community
This group is small by design. 6 to 10 women, maximum. You’ll actually know everyone’s name by the end of the first evening.
“The smallest circles hold the most magic. This one was made for women who want to go deep, in every sense of the word.”
Deep Magic The VIP Siren Experience
This is not a retreat you stumble into.
This is the one you’ve been circling for years… The one that felt too much, too beautiful, too far outside the life you’d been told to want. The one you bookmarked at midnight and talked yourself out of by morning.
Not this time beautiful dreamer! You apply, and if selected, you step into something that most women only ever dream about. Because most women never give themselves permission to say yes to something this extraordinary.
Underwater photoshoots that capture a version of you the world hasn’t seen yet. Keynote speakers who will quietly, permanently change the way you see yourself. Sound healing so restorative it moves through you like the tide. Ocean excursions that remind your body what it feels like to be wildly, unapologetically alive. And a group of women so carefully chosen that you’ll spend the rest of your life grateful they exist.
Nothing is left to chance. Nothing is accidental. Every detail has been held, considered, and placed with intention, so that all you have to do is show up.
Show up ready to go deeper than you ever have before. Whether you are a mermaid, fairy, or You deserve it!

Intimate Community
This group is small by design. 6 to 10 women, maximum. You’ll actually know everyone’s name by the end of the first evening.
“This experience was built for the woman who is ready to stop watching other people live extraordinarily, and finally step into it herself.”
“A European castle retreat is being dreamed into existence.
The women who get in will be the ones who raised their hand early.”
Think cobblestones, gowns, ancient walls, and an ocean crossed with women who became family.
