Traditional Tea Houses – Quintessential Tea Party Experience. Want to indulge in the timeless tradition of afternoon tea? Similar to tasting rooms where you can sample a variety of wine, beer, and appetizers, a traditional tea house helps you focus on the experience of brewing and tasting various flavors of tea.
Hotels – Luxury Selection. Hotels turn simple tea time into an extravagant affair and can help you unwind and disconnect from everything. From the formal presentation and the preparation ritual to the professional service and luxurious surroundings, hotel afternoon teas are all the hype.
Manors – Authentic Atmosphere. If you envision a picturesque, historical setting where people will sip on tea with their pinkies out, a landed estate with lush landscapes and flower gardens fits the bill. Manors are ideal for parties of any kind, whether you want to surprise your bestie with a bridal shower afternoon tea or host a wedding rehearsal high tea.
Gardens – Gorgeous Landscapes. There's nothing like blooming gardens, the smell of flowers, and an elegant tea party tablescape to celebrate a special event with friends and family. Imagine a botanical garden with a glasshouse, ponds, colorful flower beds, orchids, and a Japanese tea house where you can enjoy a traditional tea ceremony.
Tea Rooms – Exceptional Variety. A tea room can be your local cafe, a dining room in a restaurant, or a designated area in a hotel where you can enjoy a wide selection of tea, finger foods, scones, cakes, and other treats. Find your favorite tea room on Giggster, and book in advance.
Top Features to Look for in a Tea Party Venue
From thoughtful details to make guests feel special to the tablescape, music, and decor, there are many elements that make a tea party a gathering to remember. Pick from the many fantastic locations on Giggster that already have almost everything you need for a memorable event.
Ambiance is key. The party atmosphere can make all the difference. Wow your guests from the moment they step foot on the venue with an eye-catching table setup, unique chairs, lighting, or charming flower arrangements.
Is there enough space for everyone? A good host will make sure everyone feels comfortable at an afternoon tea gathering, and that means having enough space without invading anyone's personal space.
Porcelain, silver, or fine china? Delicate tea cups and teapots are essential for a tea party. You can choose whatever you like, but pick colors that match the tea party theme or the season.
Planning Your Tea Party
Whether you want to host a Downton Abbey-themed celebration, elegant Bridgerton afternoon tea, or children's tea by the pool, being prepared well in advance is the key. Use these tea party-planning trips to keep you on the right track.
Decide on the Tea Party Location – When choosing the perfect tea room or a tea house, there are several factors to consider, the most important being comfort, ambiance, and accessibility. Many of our venues have everything you need for a successful tea party, including cozy seating and decor to which you can put a unique twist.
Choose a Theme – Having a tea party theme gives you something to work around, plus it'll make other decisions easier. Opt for a vintage tea party with armchairs, lanterns, and unique tea sets and teapots, or a modern afternoon tea with a selection of artisan sandwiches and a modern spin on scones and desserts.
Gather Supplies – You can't call it a proper tea party without nice tea cups and a beautiful tablescape. Start with the table and chair setup, linen, and fine china, followed by centerpieces and details like flowers, candles, and whimsical lights. Offer an assortment of flavorful teas, including Earl Grey, green tea, cream tea, Asian-inspired fruit-infused teas, and more.
Pick the Food – Party food can be anything you want it to be. For traditional afternoon tea, opt for finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream, and desserts. If you want to put a modern spin on a high tea party, serve food like mini quiches, croquettes, smoked salmon, sushi, or mini stuffed bagels.
Tea Party Expense to Plan For
Whether you're hosting a bridal shower high tea or a summer garden party and cream tea, be prepared to spend. Between the variety of quality teas, desserts, drinks, and decorations, the cost of setting up a memorable afternoon tea can quickly deplete your savings.
Don't forget the flowers.
An English high tea is not complete without pretty blooms such as peonies, roses, and daisies. Use delicate flowers in vintage teapots and teacups as centerpieces to give your party a high-end look. Opt for artificial flowers if you don't have a garden where you can pick them for free.
Dress attire.
Tea parties are elegant, and if you want to follow it through, dress the part. The accepted look is smart casual. Midi or maxi dresses for women, while slacks or a suit, vests, and collared shirts complete a man's tea party attire. This could be an unexpected cost if you want to wear something new.
Decoration is everything.
You don't need much to decorate a tea party, especially if it's held outdoors. The major expenses for decoration include flowers, table runners, linen, centerpieces, and, of course, the tea sets. Reserving a tea party venue with Giggster can get you a place that is already decorated and ready for your tea party.
