Setting the Scene: Tableware & Table Settings
The foundation of any great tea party starts with beautiful tableware. Our Alice in Wonderland Paper Dinner Plates feature beloved characters including Alice, the March Hare, Mad Hatter, and Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum—perfect for bringing the story to life at each place setting. For a more elegant touch, layer them with our Tea Party Chintz Paper Plates in soft pastel colors or the classic White Scalloped Plates with Gold Edge for that premium, editorial look.
Don't forget the linens! Our Tea Party Floral Luncheon Napkins with scalloped edges and gold foil accents add a sophisticated touch, while the Let's Par-Tea Cocktail Napkins featuring vintage teacup designs are both charming and practical.
Choose between the Blue Alice in Wonderland Tablecloth with character illustrations or the Tea Party Table Cover in yellow and pink chintz for your base layer.
Tea Time Essentials
No Wonderland tea party is complete without proper tea service! Our Paper Tea Cups with Saucers in chintz floral designs (available in pastel pink and aqua) are both beautiful and practical. Create a stunning centerpiece with the Three Tier Cake Stand—perfect for displaying cupcakes, scones, and petit fours in true tea party fashion.
For an extra touch of whimsy, add the Teapot Vase featuring the iconic "It's always tea time" quote, or use our Tea Pot Mini Cupcake Stands complete with "Eat Me" tags to display individual treats. The Mini Dessert Stands with Domes are perfect for showcasing macarons and miniature confections while keeping them fresh.
Decorative Touches That Dazzle
Transform your space into Wonderland with our collection of themed decorations. The Alice in Wonderland Signs set includes 12 directional signs featuring beloved quotes like "Curiouser and Curiouser"—perfect for creating photo opportunities and guiding guests through your party space.
Our Alice in Wonderland Party Props set features 8 XL props including the White Rabbit, pocket watch, flamingo, Mad Hatter card, top hat, rose, and Queen of Hearts card. These make fantastic photo booth accessories and conversation starters!
String up the "We're All Mad Here" Paper Bunting with its playful playing card design, or opt for the Tea Party Teapot Banner proclaiming "It's always tea time." The Tea Party Bunting spans 4 meters with 16 floral pennants, creating a soft, romantic backdrop.
The Queen of Hearts Theme
For those who want to embrace the Queen of Hearts aesthetic, incorporate our Heart Napkins in Red and Red Heart Cups throughout your tablescape. The bold red pops beautifully against softer pastels and creates dramatic visual interest.
