Tea for {the loved} two ~ an inspiration for a fall wedding!

Looking for an inspirational sweetheart table? Well here is just the post for you (and table for you done by Tessa from Tie The Knot using our fine crockery!). We did this some time ago but I had never posted it. Isn’t this perfect for a fall wedding inspiration!!

Perfectly happy and contended – the couple will take their first tea {as husband and wife} on this romantic, charming tea table –  big enough for just two! The table is adorned with our delicate china sitting on dreamy dressy linen from past eras…the setting is beautiful wood deck in a vintage home – Felch Inn. This all emanates a much-needed serenity to the ones tying the knot. Enjoy the table with two styles – one done with place settings for dinner and the other with macrons for the tea afterwards. Buck from Buck Dietz Photography captured this decidedly romantic view so beautifully – stilled thoughts, dusky light, the tranquility – in short, a dream scene for many couples about to wed!

About Author

Hi and welcome to my blog!

My name is Riffat and I am the writer behind this blog. Through this blog I share many things I am enthusiastic about – my curated items from old era, passion for tea and tea parties, book reviews, glimpse into my occasional travels, some design and décor, DIY projects. I specifically like to create themed and seasonal parties incorporating vintage treasures.

I am mother of 3 amazing boys – the oldest is neuro-diverse and his being on the spectrum has given a different and incredible meaning to our family! I would be a very different person without him. Besides enjoying my family and this blog, I am a full-time speech and language pathologist.

After living in the sunny Arizona for almost 14 years, my husband and I moved the family to Frisco, TX few year back! In 2009, when vintage china and tea parties were gaining popularity, I ventured into the world of event rentals, offering my eclectic garage-full collection for vintage-themed gatherings - tea parties, weddings, showers and other private and business events. I had the pleasure of working with some amazing vendors in the event industry and got featured on many international and national blogs. While my initial focus was on the rental business, I eventually shifted gears to lifestyle blogging to encompass a broader spectrum of life's facets. In 2020, bidding farewell to the rental business, I returned to my primary profession. The transition prompted a hiatus from blogging, but now, with a semblance of balance restored (or perhaps just better time management skills acquired), I'm rediscovering the joy of penning down my thoughts.

Originally from Pakistan, I am a multicultural and multilingual person and enjoy diversity to its fullest. I welcome new things and ways and learn from them but believe in restoring and preserving as well. I love people who inspire each other, are successful holistically, spread positive vibes and make a difference in this world for themselves and individuals around them. Overall, I strive to be a very well-balanced person and this blog plays some part in achieving that!

I absolutely love to team up with creative minds! Feel free to contact me for collaboration ideas, guest blogging opportunities or any other fun idea!

    Especially when it is dressed in such lavish dreamyness. This shoot was a wonderful way to show couples what they can do with your crockery.
