An ESU Tea Party Fit for a King

Saturday, August 17, 2024
10:30 am or 2:30 pm Seatings

All ESU Members and Friends of ESU are cordially invited to attend one of our biggest social gatherings of the year—a tea to celebrate King Charles III's birthday. We will miss our wonderful Tea Parties for the Queen but our King's Teas will be equally regal. We will be celebrating HRH King Charles' 75th birthday. This will be an ESU Tea Party fit for a King! 

Our tea party will include a variety of tea sandwiches, sweets, Brenda's signature scones, Mock Devonshire cream, fine fruit butter or fruit jams and premium tea.  Brenda Hedrick, the owner and proprietress of Anna Marie's Teas proudly proclaims, "This is not just any tea party--our tea experiences are delightfully extravagant!"  This is a special occasion not to be missed!

The English teas will be held in the Bohnet House in Liberty, Mo., which is a stately 3-story, 5,000 square foot home built in 1913. The house boasts Frank Lloyd Wright details--oak trim, 3 fireplaces and large open spaces. Its large wraparound porch and period American, French and English antique furnishings create the perfect setting for tea parties--served on a special collection of china and silver. 

Our teas will include a special champagne toast to HRH King Charles' 75th birthday and we will again have our popular Trivia Quiz as well as some special door prizes.

When: Saturday, August 17, 2024. Choose either 10:30 am or 2:30 pm seatings.
