9 Tea Party Ideas for Adults

Whether you’re looking for tea party ideas for a bridal shower, a budget-friendly tea party, or a ladies’ afternoon tea with your girlfriends, you’re sure to find something that suits your needs.

Here are some of my favorite tea party ideas that you can use to inspire your special event.

1. Authentic Afternoon Tea Bridal Shower – To make this afternoon tea more realistic, I used real porcelain china, glass and crystal goblets, lace tablecloths, authentic food, British teapots, real flowers, and 3-tiered Victorian tea stands.

2. British Afternoon Tea – This afternoon tea theme was based on British movies and novels about England – especially during the Victorian Era.

3. Vintage Tea Party Decoration – It’s an easy event to plan for kids or adults and can include typical elements like tea sets, linens, and picnic baskets.

4. Traditional Tea Party – This is a perfect setting for an afternoon event for a wedding or baby shower.

5. French Style High Tea Party – A Romantic French-style high Tea recreates an event from an era of opulence and luxurious elegance.

6. Retro Tea Party – A great theme for a luncheon tea, that is served with glamour in this style.

7. Downtown Abbey-Themed Tea Party – A perfect tea-themed party for a fan of Downton Abbey.

8. Pink Vintage Tea Party – Use vintage tea cups and teapots for the centerpiece and table decor. A piece of vintage rose-looking fabric for the table runners.
