If you’re craving a holiday night out that blends beautiful homes, incredible food, and deep local roots, Elegant Progressions is back for its 34th edition on Friday, Dec. 5 and Saturday, Dec. 6, and this year’s theme is:
“Crossing to Bridgeport: A Holiday in Lemoyne!”
For 2025, the celebrated progressive dinner heads to the West Shore, highlighting Lemoyne’s origins as “Bridgeport,” the historic landing point of the first bridge across the Susquehanna. All proceeds benefit The Kidney Foundation of Central Pennsylvania and Historic Harrisburg Association, two organizations doing meaningful work in our region.
What to Expect
Elegant Progressions is a chauffeured, multi-course evening where guests travel by Unique Limousine motorcoach to three private residences — each hosting a different part of the night. You’ll choose between Friday or Saturday, both beginning at 6 p.m.
Stop 1: The Osborne Estate
Kick off the evening at the hilltop White Oaks estate of Mary Beth and Kevin Osborne, with Mountain Laurel Catering serving a festive first course of passed and stationed hors d’oeuvres, curated wines, and craft beer.
Stop 2: Dinner at the Page Residence
Travel past historic Fort Couch to the contemporary home of Shelly and Michael Page, featuring an elegant candlelight dinner and thoughtfully paired wines.
Stop 3: Dessert with a View at the Alexander Home
End the night at the home of Marion and Bill Alexander, founders of Elegant Progressions, offering a decadent dessert buffet and stunning views of the Harrisburg skyline and river. Guests will also have the chance to see Bill’s antique model trains, a cherished heirloom.
Guests will gather at Camp Hill Corporate Center for easy parking, a champagne welcome toast, and brief announcements before boarding the coaches.
