Victorian Bridal Tea Party
Here are some tips for a lovely "Victorian Bridal Tea Party":
It
is customary for the bride to host a luncheon or tea for her
bridesmaids. Close friends of the bride’s family may, also host a
"Bridal Tea". This is a special time for the bridesmaids to get
acquainted. You might want to include the old tradition of serving a
pink cake for dessert that has a ring, coin, or thimble baked inside.
The old story says that the bridesmaids who gets the slice of cake
containing the trinket will be the next to marry! Your tea can include
the other traditions and use of fine or antique china, setting out a
pretty lace table cloth with dainty napkins, adding candles, etc. Make
sure this is a special time!
Invitations: Whether the invitation
is computer-generated, formal or personal, it is a good idea to address
the envelope with calligraphy-style hand writing for that elegant
special touch.
