Par-Tea anyone? We hosted our first ticketed event, and it was simply splendid! With pastel decor and gold accents that shimmered, our Darling Duo Tea Party was a true delight for all those who attended. Tea foods and treats that were simply divine, our guests were left with an experience that was simply sublime. We offered a DIY bracelet and bouquet bar and professional photos. Laughs and fun were in the air, as we sipped our tea without a single care. View a video of our event here.
• ENGRAVED DRINK TOPPERS •
Raise your glass to the finer things in life! 502 Engravings made the most stunning lilac acrylic name engraved drink toppers to serve as our place-cards. Personalized, polished, and oh so chic, our guests were impressed with every sip and took them home as a keepsake.
• CAKES + COOKIES •
Our guests indulged in bite-sized treats, with cookie sandwiches and cakes that can't be beat. Locally baked with love and care, each pastry was a perfect pair. We made DIY tiered stands with odd and end tea cups and plates found at local thrift stores. They made our food table eye catching and left us sighing with delight. A tea party dream come true, Beautiful Things Bakery sweetened our day with every chew.
• BALLOONS •
Step into a world of pastel delight, where every detail is a sheer delight. Our tea party entrance and flower cart were decorated with organic balloon garlands that stole our heart. With pops of color and playful fun, our organic garlands are second to none.
Balloons are a must for every event we host and our Darling Duo Tea was no exception! We paired a 13ft organic garland with our newest rental, a white metal vendors cart. It set the perfect tone for our DIY Bouquet Bar. We also installed a 16 ft organic garland at our entry way to welcome our guests and set the atmosphere for them to sip tea and bask in our whimsy Darling Duo Tea. Our full catalog of balloon installs can be found here. Full catalog of furniture rentals coming soon!
• LUXURY PICNIC •
A picnic of grandeur and grace, where every detail is a sight to embrace! We set up four 4 foot picnic tables together to create a long table for 16 which included thrifted china, pastel linens, and menus we printed at home and added a gold wax seal too. Our gold silverware and pastel pillows make for a glamorous touch, while flickering candles added a warm, romantic rush. Our pink floral arrangements by River Blossoms Flower Farm left us in awe as they added a stunning finishing touch. A long table that stretches far and wide, this picnic table took us on a magical ride.
Our luxury picnic details and pricing can be found here.
• FOOD + DRINKS •
The Storehouse Coffee and Gifts catering is the talk of the town, serving up tea sandwiches and salads that never let you down. With a blend of flavors that's simply divine, their culinary skills are simply one of a kind. Three tea sandwiches that will melt in your mouth, and two salads that will leave you no doubt. We paired our menu with our current favorite Storehouse drink the strawberry refresher. This menu left us with a taste that's hard to beat!

• BOUQUET BAR •
Sip, Sip, Hooray! Our guests created their own bouquet! With pastel blooms in every shade, our tea party will never fade thanks to River Blossoms Flower Farm. These locally grown blooms are grown with care. Madison, with River Blossoms, encouraged our guests to pick their favorite blooms and create a bouquet to take home. With every stem and petal our guests created a piece of nature's art building their own masterpiece straight from the heart.
We decorated our white vendor cart with balloons and a fun "parTEA" banner made by Celebration & Co..They are our secret weapon for all party decor! Jessica is always bringing our Pinterest dreams to life in the papers, colors, and textures needed for our events.
