Why Afternoon Tea Is Great:

Afternoon Tea is the perfect activity for a hen party looking for a classy and sophisticated experience. It’s a little different from the norm but it promises an amazingly luxurious afternoon for all. Despite what the name says, some venues provide more than just tea. If you fancy something a little stronger than tea, there are menus available that include things such as Prosecco and cocktails. It’s also found in a different variation as a Vintage Tea Party. The choice is completely yours on which type of Afternoon Tea you choose. But one thing is certain...you’ll have a fantastic experience either way!

It’s An Activity That’s Suitable For Everyone:

If the bride has family of all ages that she wants at the hen party then Afternoon Tea is just the thing. It’s a highly inclusive activity that caters for anyone and everyone.
