Looking for something unique and different to serve your guests? Why not offer a tea bar? This is not only perfect for bridal showers, but it's a great addition to dessert time at weddings. Along with loose leaf tea making great individual favors for your guests - you can set up a display of loose leaf teas for a "tea bar". Consider it a healthy alternative to the standard candy bar. If you happen to prefer tea bags, no worries, you can offer those instead.

Above is a sample idea for a tea bar set-up from Davidson's Teas {their loose leaf tea is often used for individual wedding favors}. Simply let your guests create their own personal blend of tea to drink at the party. You can even offer glassine envelopes or mini tins so your guests can create another blend to bring home and enjoy later. PS: If you're looking for a unique way to present the loose tea, you won't want to miss the next post coming up in just a bit. It's the perfect solution!

A tea party theme is a wonderfully versatile choice for a bridal shower. This adaptable theme can create a sophisticated and elegant event but easily lends itself to an outdoor party that is whimsical and fun. The Tea Party theme coordinates well with classic white or ivory colors, lace and doilies or can be spruced up with bold flares, feathers and floral arrangements. Infusing the bride-to-be's personality can make a tea party theme right for a variety of settings from a small afternoon tea at home to more formal locations such as a historical mansion or landmark.

I recently came across this beautiful blog called One Charming Blog and love it! While these photos are from a baby shower, I thought they would also be perfect for a tea themed bridal shower. How cute to use teapots for vases!!! And, the pink and red color combo is a great choice for a ladies-only themed party/shower.
