The High Tea Experience

What A Dainty Day
Sunday, August 23, 2009

We hosted a High Tea at the Empress Lounge located inside the Mandarin Oriental in Washington, DC.  The concept was a unique experience showcasing our femininity, chic hats and favorite teas. The High Tea catered to 19 socialites and they were dressed in their fancy attire, draped in vintage pearls, and provided the positive aura that made this event a huge success.

We indulged in a selection of artistically crafted cakes, finger sandwiches, tarts and mouth-watering scones. The desserts were accompanied by an international menu of rare teas and coffee blends. The highlights of the afternoon were all the fun photos, the tea swap, true sisterhood, and the fab hat contest.

The three winners of the chic hat contest were presented with $50 gift certificates to the Mandarin's Spa by hostess Lerkia Lee-Tidball, of Savvy Soirées.
