My sister, Christina, and I hosted a tea-themed bridal shower for a friend a couple of summers ago. With the abundance of flowers from my cutting garden we knew there would be in late summer, we immediately settled on our theme. We put together a sweets & savories menu, served bubbly and a special black vanilla blend tea, and tucked teacups and flowers on every surface. My favorite detail was the last-minute flower crown we put together to surprise our bride when she walked in the door!
