How To Organize A Best Vintage Tea Party

A tea party is a great way to celebrate special occasions like christenings, baby showers, wedding stylist, anniversaries and birthdays, and is the easiest way to catch up with your friends and relatives.  All of us have a very busy schedule these days and a tea party gives the perfect chance to meet our near and dear ones and share our joy with them. And, to make matters more interesting you can add a rustic twist by organizing a Vintage Tea Party! It gives a special touch and makes your event a memorable one.

Some important points keep in mind before organizing a Vintage Tea Party to make it more beautiful.

Hire a Vintage Organiser and Caterer : 

If you wish to organise a classic vintage tea party, then you can consider hiring a reasonable vintage tea party organiser like PrettyVintageThings which is based in Berkshire (UK).  Pretty Vintage Things provides vintage crockery for hire which is embellished with gold gilt edgings and flowery designs, and is reminiscent of the traditional English culture. You can choose from a fine selection of vintage tea pots, cups and saucers, cake plates, milk jugs, cutlery and much more.

Don’t forget the drinks : 

Do not serve only freshly, brewed tea. Get creative and serve a variety of tea drinks like iced tea, herbal tea, and tea with different flavours. Even if you are organising a tea party, it is important to serve other drinks on arrival to your guests. You can choose from fresh lemonade, ginger ale or fruit juices (fresh or canned).

Simple Vintage Menu : 

Tea parties are a success with a vintage yet simple spread. Keep elegant bites of a variety of cakes, patisserie, finger sandwiches, biscuits, scones and eggs. These are all-time-traditional-favourites and a hit for any type of tea party menu. If you are organising a vintage party, then your menu should match the theme. If you wish, you can take only suggestions from Pretty Vintage Things for the menu or take the entire equipment hire catering service from us. Whatever you choose, keep this thumb rule in mind- keep the menu SIMPLE.

Give a vintage touch to the venue : 

If you have invited people for a vintage tea party, then your venue should also have a traditional makeover. You can think about fishing out your grandmother’s treasures or think about your friends who have antique items which you can borrow. Of course, you always have the option to hire vintage props from Petty Vintage Things. They offer a variety of props from old-fashioned post boxes, retro gramophones, sewing machines, typewriters, quaint village bicycles to traditional sweet carts. For inspiration, we suggest you to have a look at their collection of antique props.

Try to invite limited people : 

A tea party is best restricted to your close friends and relatives. A limited number of guests will lend special warmth to your occasion. If you do choose to invite many people, think about how many people you can serve, the number of seats at the table, the number of vintage crockery items which you have, your budget, etc.

Make the table attractive : 

The table is a center of attraction of a tea party. Make the table look inviting for your guests. Think out-of-the-box ways to decorate the table and give it an attractive look. Maybe a mix and match of tablecloths (dug out of your grandmother’s collection) or an attractive vintage centrepiece would do.

Decorate the venue : 

Apart from the vintage crockery and the table layout, you should set time aside to decorate the venue. Keep in mind the theme you have chosen. The crockery, decor and accessories should match each other. Pretty Vintage Things can give you many suggestions for creating a perfect theme and giving a vintage look to your venue. If you wish, they can even decorate the entire venue for you.
