Thursday, a bridal shower tea party, and Etsy

I love the idea of a bridal shower tea party. It could be classic and beautiful, fun and girly, all at once. 

I would start with an invitation like this-

The next order of business would be the table. It would be set with an elegant tea service, fine china and linens, and charming place cards.

I think these flowered sugar cubes and sparkling champagne glasses will suit the occasion perfectly....

There has to be sweets- and this trio of cake stands will make an ideal display for cupcakes decked out in the best wrappers.

I imagine these delicate paper lanterns, with their folded butterflies, hanging at different lengths over the table.

This branch sculpture will be an amazing addition and could serve as a wishing tree- plus it would be a wonderful gift for the guest of honor.

Guests would be asked to jot down their well wishes and advice for the bride-to-be on these bird tags that can hang from the tree and be gathered after the celebration.

Favors for the guests? Tea, of course! These monogrammed tins make the prettiest presentation....
