~A Romantic Tea Party~
 I am joining Cielo at http://houseinroses.blogspot.com/  for a Victorian Tea Party and Martha at http://www.marthasfavorites.com/ ! The sweet memory of my wedding is lingering with me today.
I have chosen to invite you for tea and share with you some sweet memories of my wedding day.
My husband and I were blessed to find each other a bit later in life...3 children and some life lessons under our belts.
We had a gorgeous wedding in early October set in the prettiest country woods with flowers blooming and love bursting forth...
We were married at my childhood home in the dreamiest setting alongside a babbling brook!
I chose a beautiful formal gown with a long flowing veil. I felt like a sweet fairy princess on this day lucky enough to have met my prince charming!
Please have a sip of tea and relax...aren't these pretty German teacups just delightful and dainty...
I also love these pretty iron chairs they remind me of the vibrant reds I used in my sweet October wedding...
This is a pretty bridal purse my neighbor made...
I wish I would have it for my day but never the less it is pretty for decoration.
My pretty favorite romantic teapot...it is rather shabby because I had to rescue it and put it back together...
That is us in a silver frame that I recieved as a gift from my Aunt Carol for our wedding.
My favorite vintage gloves... they are the softest leather with the prettiest of details...

I can imagine the pretty romantic dress that might have been worn with this sweet vintage hat...
Oh my, it looks as if I need a refill on my tea...
Thank you for letting me share some of my memories with you and please stop by again for a cup of tea and more romantic treasures.
I also want to give a sweet hug and thank you to Cielo for hosting this beautiful Victorian Tea Party
you can find her at http://houseinroses.blogspot.com/.
Martha at http://www.marthasfavorites.com/  has also invited me to participate in her tea party, thank you so much it is an honor! Enjoy your tea time!
Hugs,
Olivia

  5. Hi Oliva, You always make everything look so dreamy and romantic. I love your photos of you and your "prince" from your wedding. Perhaps some day we will see pictures of a littel prince or princess. Thank you for visiting and leaving your sweet comment on my Pink Saturday photo/memory jar project. I had so much fun glittering the starfish and shells in pink. I hope you are inspired to do the same. Please be sure to share with us if you do.
