      Add a little throwback magic to February 14 with a romantic evening set among two of Pasadena’s most iconic historic homes.

      By Melanie Hooks

      This Valentine’s Day, the Fényes Mansion and the Gamble House will welcome guests for a vintage-style celebration featuring romantic music, sparkling toasts, sweet and savory treats, and a rich array of architectural and decorative delights.

      Visitors to the Victorian-inspired Fényes Mansion can wander through its elegant interiors while learning about the Language of Flowers and enjoying light classical music performed on a 1907 Steinway & Sons grand piano.

      At the Gamble House, guests will be immersed in the warmth of Craftsman architecture and invited to compose a custom typewritten poem with a local poet.

      Designed for couples, friends, and loved ones alike, the evening offers an opportunity to explore both Pasadena landmarks while receiving heartfelt souvenirs from each enchanting venue. Tickets for the event are available for purchase through Eventbrite.
