Your entrance way to your home looks so welcoming, Bernideen. Your tearoom looks so organized and perfectly wonderful for your first tea. Oh how I'd love to be a lucky guest at your party!

What a welcoming, festive setting you've created!! And what a happy occasion this will be. You've really prepared a beautiful welcoming for all your guests. I knew you were serious about your guests, but this level of hospitality, with all the chairs in their lovely prom dresses, and all the dainty teacups awaiting---this is not just a serious dedication, but practically NUCLEAR---what lucky friends and what a sweet memory to give them.
ReplyDeleteAll that work and planning and you've accomplished SO MUCH---how I'd love to do such creative, beautiful parties again! I Know the work that goes into such an occasion at home.
Looking forward to LOTS of photos of this marvelous tea.

So far so good, the front entrance looks welcoming and the tea room, inviting. A lot of work to prepare the food yourself but I know you'll enjoy every minute.
