# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Bethi’s First Platonic Cuddle Puddle
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 22 Mar, 2026 at 03:00 pm – Sun, 22 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: I’m fresh out of the Asheville Cuddle Collective’s Facilitator training and I’m ready to try my hand at hosting my very first platonic cuddle event ? This is by invitation only and RSVP’s are necessary, as space is limited!

*My home is shared with two cats, so please be aware if you are allergic ??*

Please join me for an evening of safe, consensual connection, as I practice the techniques I learned to create a trusting container, guide us through a series of ice breakers, and then open the space up for some free form cuddling. Show up as you are—no masks, no pressure. Together, we’ll create a sanctuary where personal boundaries are celebrated, hearts may open, and everyone feels seen.

Platonic touch among friends (let alone strangers!) is sadly not commonly explored nor enjoyed in our culture, and my goal is to provide a safe, cozy space where individuals may connect with like-minded folks in practicing enthusiastic verbal consent to comfortably and respectfully fulfill the touch needs many of us are yearning for. ?

As a platonic event, all erogenous zones should be covered and we’ll refrain from interacting in any ways that might make our grandparents blush ?

Below is a rough outline you can expect from the evening:

2:50 pm - Arrive and settle in! Grab a snack, some hydration and find your spot in the cuddle cave.

3:00 pm - Welcome Circle; this is imperative, as we will set our container together, discuss personal boundaries, communication, and consent.

3:10 pm - Ice Breaker Activities

3:50 pm - Sharing Intentions

4:00 pm - Open Cuddling!

6:45 pm - Closing Circle, Group processing, and clean up

Some of my asks are:

PLEASE arrive on time!!! Our welcoming circle will ensure the comfort of all participants, as we will introduce ourselves and discuss the agreements of the group
PLEASE arrive sober!!! This event is focused on safety and consent, which is impaired if you’re impaired ?
PLEASE be mindful of any strong scents!!! This includes perfume or cologne, sweat, cigarette smoke, essential oils, strong breath, strong body odors, etc. A clean body is much much appreciated by all cuddlers involved ✨

Because this is being held at my home, parking is limited near my front door, but there is the Cyzner Institute on the corner of Sardis Rd and Sardis Ln that has ample parking and I will have signs up guiding guests from the parking lot to my property! Please let me know if there are any special accommodations needed and I will see what I can do to provide those. The address will be provided upon RSVP ??

As an up-and-coming cuddle facilitator, I’m asking for donations of any blankets, pillows, sheets, stuffies, or soft thingies that may be taking up space in your closet unused, and that will contribute to a cuddly environment, or up to $10 if you feel so inclined ??

Thank you for being a part of my community! I hope to see you for some cuddles and connection soon ?
