You’re all mad!

28May10

The highly anticipated Mad Tea Party is ALMOST HERE!  I know it’s still over a week away, and I know it’s been raining all week, but I want to go decorate and set up for the party right this second.

Here’s a look at the full invitation system.

We’ve sent out 3 pieces of mail leading up to the event (which will be held on Sunday, June 6).  First we had the “You are cordially invited” set that went out.  No specific event details were given at that point.

A few weeks later, the 11″x 17″ “Calling Card” was mailed to each guest in a mailing tube (return address from Wonderland, of course).  On the bottom of the poster was the riddle, “Why is the Raven like a Writing Desk?” and each person was given a specific time for when they’d be phoned and asked for their answer to the riddle.  When the answer was given, the guest was told more event details.

A week later, “Drink Me” glass bottles were hand delivered to each guests’ front door, and the specific event details were rolled up and placed inside the bottles.

There will be more photos from the actual Tea Party in the next few weeks..there will be LOTS to photograph.  Can’t wait!
