Throw a Victorian Era Style Tea Party in 5 Steps

Throw a Victorian Era Style Tea Party in 5 Steps

26th Aug 2016

When people think Victorian, they often think high tea or garden party. For just a few hours, take a break from fast-paced, practical modern life and transport yourself and loved ones to a more genteel time, where ladies wore gloves and men wore coattails, and tea was a daily royal ritual in the mid-1800s to the early 1900s.

Of course when people think Victorian, they often think of extravagant table settings with doilies, ballrooms with chandeliers or classical music. But a Victorian Era Style Tea Party doesn’t have to be a grand affair. You can host high tea without converting your house into Downtown Abbey. Here are five simple steps to keep in mind when you planning your Tea Party:
