Morocan Inspired Kitchen Tea!








Two weekends ago my sisters bridal party (me included!) successfully hosted her Moroccan Inspired Kitchen Tea! It was exciting to have a different theme, and everything to be a complete surprise for the bride to be! We wanted to stay true to theme, using rich colours of red, orange, pink and gold, and then also taking on the homemade antique vibe.


In the first image you can see our theme table, which just had decoration to set the mood and no main food on it. It backed on to the amazing pool and garden area, really setting a relaxed environment. Each table setting had a centre piece, just as the bottom images display. This kept the theme consistent through the entire party area. The decor was a mixture of great op shop finds! And ornaments I've been collecting over time and handmade pieces. A few little homemade art projects always give a great touch. Together I think it had an amazing feel!

It was a joy to see our visions come to life, and get busy with a few homemade art projects.

To make the day pass, we had plenty of food and desert, also played a few games; a great one for any one organising a kitchen tea, or any shower in this case is, Bingo! Traditionally presents are opened in front of all your guests, so giving everyone a bingo card to play along whilst opening presents keeps it fun for everyone. Great idea for young and old, I’ve given an example of the simple cards above!

She had an amazing time! I Hope everyone out there gets to organise a fun themed event for someone special soon!
