Planning a Bridal Shower Tea Party!

Hey all!

In about four months my cousin will be getting married!

April 2 , 2010 to be exact!

Being in a wedding makes me think what if I get married...

who would I choose to me my girls?

What theme will I go for? How will I find a dress? All that jazzz!

but anyways, sorry side tracking...

I am happy to say she picked me to be her Maid Of Honor!

So far, I think I have been doing very good.

She thought up the wedding to be a
1940's Hollywood Glam Theme.

Everything she has planned already matches the theme perfect!

She is even having in an old mansion. very cute!

So of course me being maid of honor,
I need to be the H.B.I.C (head bitch in charged)

 for her bridal shower.

I thought, what better theme than a tea party!

I would like to go all the way but I have to compromise with ideas only

because people ARE picky! 

I got some great ideas but I am still very open for any suggestions.

Here is what I got so far:

Finger Sandwiches

Cucumber

Chicken Salad

Ham & Cheese

Cheese

Apps

Cheese

Crackers

Fruit

Veggies
Quiche

Sweets:

Cupcakes (of course)

brownies

Sugar cookies with frosting & sprinkles

macaroons

petit fours

Tea! & Drinks

Green Tea

Iced Passion Tea

Water with Lemon Slices

Strawberry Lemonade?

Decor:

Teapot/tea cup center pieces w/ daisys or gerber flowers.

lace table cloths

A Pretty Banner

Lastly, I was hoping I can encourge just brides maids to dress in tea party attire.

(dress, gloves, hat) and suprise the bride with all this plus a very special hat & gloves.

Does anyone have any tips or places where I can go to get these thing?

or maybe gifts for the games? I have the games in mind, very good ones.

Help a sista' out♥

love,

kristin.
