Vaux-Le-Vicomte: Le Rendez-Vous Grand Siècle

Ok all you francophiles out there, this is a very specific question so hoping maybe someone has information.
The once a year Rendez-vous Grand Siecle event is happening at Vaux-Le-Vicomte in May and luckily my itinerary worked out that I can attend.

Questions:
1) has anyone rented period costumes on site and was it easy? The website has a link to a local shop that appears to require fitting appointments which seems a bit onerous.
2) Has anyone purchased the optional "After Prestige" tickets and if so, was that part of the day worth 60 euros?
Thanks!

I'm sorry, I can't answer your question, but I will say that I'm dead jealous that you're going. I've always wanted to.

Having visited the Vaux several times, I think it would be a gorgeous event. I do hope you'll come back and report on your experience. I'd look forward to it!

Enjoy!
