Mad Hatter Tea Party

In : Real Parties, Posted by Jana on Jul.07, 2010

On Saturday we had a wonderful Alice in Wonderland birthday party. Check out the photos below! Many thanks to Beaufort Catering for the delicious tea party food and precious teapot cake. Prop World/ Meeting Dynamics provided many of the props we used. Their crew was professional and did a great job! Ben Wilson took all of these photos.

I made this sign for the birthday girls. The images are all from graphicsfairy.blogspot.com. What a cool site!

Prop World provided the giant playing cards. We collected teapots and teacups to use for the flower arrangements.

Here is a close up of the teapot cake and the cupcakes. The cupcake toppers are from LCcakes on Etsy.

I made the favor bags using orange and green bags from Michaels. I then folded a decorative piece of scrapbook paper around the top, punched the edge with a craft punch, and sealed it with a birthday cake sticker.

We used an eclectic assortment of teacups to serve water and lemonade. It was much too hot for tea!

We served yummy tea party food. Ham biscuits, pigs in a blanket, open faced tomato sandwiches, little sandwiches and cheese and crackers. We used the saucers from the teacups for the plates.

Here is another shot of the food.

Prop World hung all these lanterns and umbrellas on the deck for a very wonderland feel.

We had face painting for the kids under a tent.

What a beautiful day for a party! We had trouble tearing people away from the view to eat dinner. Here are some photos from the May 8th Spring Dance. Many thanks to Amazing Event Rentals for the beautiful tent and Sally Hendricks at Outrageous Floral Design for the always fabulous flowers. We used flowers to cover an ugly sign in the park.What a difference. Enjoy!

Now that the weather is getting warmer, it is the perfect time to have a picnic! Here are some photos from a few weekends ago of a picnic some friends and I put together.We served quinoa salad with cucumbers and tomatoes, smoked salmon, and fresh fruit and cheese with a baguette. It was delicious and so much fun.
