I've also been thinking about a tea-party-themed wedding, and after an afternoon tea at Mackenzie King Estate in the Gatineau Hills, I thought it would be brilliant to use three-tiered tea trays as centrepieces!
One girl at the table with me said she wanted to use them for the meal, but I couldn't see everyone behind their trays, so I think one in the centre will suffice. I would put cupcakes on the bottom tray (one for each guest at the table, but with reserves somewhere else), homemade cookies and treats on the centre tray, and bite-sized candies and mints on the top tray.
Colourful, casual, cute, UNcommon. It's simple, but sooooooo me! And after realizing a simple (but snazzy) solitaire was the way to go diamond-wise, I think it appropriate to apply that across the board in my life -- or at least to my Fake (but one-day-will-be-real) Wedding.
Ladies, I think this one is a winner ;)
This my friend, is a brilliant idea! I love tea parties and have thrown a few of my own in the past. I even used my ligitimate, old fashioned tea cups that my grandmother left for me.
