The Vintage Queen does tea...............

With much anticipation the day of the Vintage Tea Party arrived... when I booked it with my lovely friend Vici from Dragonfly Bakery her status on facebook read....

"Have had a lovely couple of out door days with the kids but one of the highlights was definitely a suprise visit from a lovely friend who was a vision in vintage! A living walking beautiful homage to Cath Kidston! Xxx"

I spent the afternoon running up vintage looking Peter Rabbit bunting for a baby shower pressie .....

First, the styling of the windowsills with relevant vintage bits and pieces including gorgeous flower hairslides for all the guests to wear.....

The fireplace adorned with floral bunting......

More styling....

A china pram, a baby picture..........

Everything was vintage, the plates, cups, even the cutlery and the napkins.............

Then the food, we had a choice of menus and we chose retro mushroom and prawn vol au vents....

 Vintage summer fruit jellies served in mis-matched retro glasses..........

Traditional sandwiches - with the crusts cut off obviously....cupcakes, a large victoria sandwich cake, muffins, pasta salad and filo goats cheese parcel,a quiche and a gorgeous lemon cheesecake with summer fruit compote.....



And to wash it all down a choice of fruit juice and different teas all served in large vintage teapots and pretty mismatched cups..............

The mum to be with the buffet.............

One final note, the company was amazing we laughed 'til we cried, the food was gorgeous and the styling brilliant - it was everything I dreamed off and more.........
