Since we are back from our honeymoon and do not yet have the pics from our photographer (we should have them by Wednesday), I thought I would share some pics of the tea I hosted for my bridesmaids the day before the wedding.
Here is a pic of the table all set pretty…
Some of the sandwiches - egg salad and tuna salad
Smoked salmon spread on cucumbers
Stuffed Crimini Mushrooms
Homegrown red and black raspberries on a lemon tart
Blue cheese and figs on radiccio leaves
Grapefruit curd tarts with candied violets
Mini Quiche
Banana Bread Sandwiches with orange cream cheese
More quiches
Chocolate sandwiches with a peanut butter mousse
Key Lime Bars with violets from my mom’s garden
And last, but not least, here we all are in our tea dresses and hats!
It’s so lovely. I wish I was invited. 
It shows how much care you put into it and I’m sure your party was much appreciated and a success. Each dish looks so pretty and delicious. Congratulations!
I too want to know — did you make all of that?! What a thoughtful thing to for your girls. Hmm…gets me thinking, what could I do for my girls and when? They won’t arrive in Burlington until the rehearsal which doesn’t leave much time.
looks amazing (the food and the decoration!).
I’m hungry now. 
WOW! It all looks mouth-wateringly good!
What a beautiful tea party..;-)
Time for lunch! Gorgeous and what a sweet and thoughtful thing to do. I’m doing a bridal tea as well and you’ve given me inspiration!
Mmm..all of that looks delish! Did you make all of it?? And do you have any recipes to share…? =)
Yes, I did make all of the food. I am working on putting together the recipes to post…. I will keep you posted
How much fun it must have been to make all of that! Those pinwheel toothpicks are too much.
Wow, looks delicious! My stomach is grumbling.
Nummy! The pink floral dishes are to die for! Where are those from?? I would love a set myself!
Oh my god, it’s all so adorable! I wish I had enough “girly” friends to host one of those for! I love miniature food…
Cute idea w/ the hats!
mrs. raspberry everything looks soooo delicious and i love that everyone wore hats! you really outdid yourself - if i were a bridesmaid, i’d love such a tea! 
Oh yum.. I wish I was one of your bridesmaids too.
That looks like it was a lovely party and the food pics are making me hungry. I would like a tea party for a bridal shower but I know my funky, punkster sister/MOH would have nothing to do with such a theme. *sigh*
wow, i can’t believe you had the wear with-all to do that the day before your wedding. i’m not a baker or a cook, so doing something as extravagant as that the day before my wedding would be enough to do me in.
