Tea Party Birthday Favors
Tea Party Bridal Shower
Are you planning a bridal shower but want to make it a bit different than the usual shower? Consider incorporating an afternoon tea theme into your plans. The event doesn't need to be a serious high tea with straight faces all around. Make it fun for the bride and the guests by going all out and helping everyone to get involved.
If you want your guests to arrive prepared, make sure their invitation states that they are invited for an afternoon tea party. Hint that they bring items to help lighten the mood, such as fancy gloves, hankies or hats that they can use all through the shower. Getting the guests involved before the shower means fewer surprises during the shower and gives them a heads up as to what they can expect. There will often be some guests who won't feel comfortable participating, so don't let them get you down.
It's also a thoughtful idea to have some extra costume pieces for guests who don't have anything at home that they can bring.

Tea Party For Kids
A children's tea party does not need to be limited to fancy
dresses, gloves, and quiet chit-chat around the table-
although this type of tea party can be great fun! If you are
interested in hosting multiple tea parties or creating one
special event, having a variety of themes to choose from
may help get the creative juices flowing. Tea parties can
focus around any of the following themes:
o Birthdays
o Seasons
o Holidays
o Special events (graduations, celebrations, etc.)
o Favorite things (dolls, stuffed animals)
o Special people (such as grandparents, friends)
o Much, much more!
Choose decorations that compliment your theme,
and if possible, find invitations that are either theme-or
tea-related, such as cups and saucers or teapots.
Supplies
Depending on your needs, you will need to have a certain
amount of supplies for the designated party, or, if you are
interested in hosting children's tea parties as a business
venture, a variety of supplies. Some ideas include
