Please read the details, darling . . .
DETAILS:
Non-Sponsor Reservations - PayPal buttons will be posted for non-sponsor reservations payable with all credit cards, no PayPal account required
Mystery - Owing to the expected warmth of the season and the fact we will be sitting outside, in addition to our hosting a silent auction & drawing, we've decided to drastically curtail the whodunnit aspect of the event. In fact, it you blink or go powder your nose, you might miss it!
Parking - The French Estate is in a residential area where parking can be difficult. The venue will be giving us parking suggestions based on our total number of guests. We'll include that information in the final confirmation email about a week prior to the event
What to Wear - A Little Black Dress if you please. Gents, feel free to have at it!
Silent Auction & Drawing - We hope to have at least 6 silent auction items & 12 drawing baskets available. If you'd like to contribute, we'd be so grateful we'd promise not to bump you off during the mystery
Ads in Program - Business card-size ads (3.5"x2") are available for $25. Email us at whimsicalitea2017@gmail.com if you'd like to participate
Dietary Restrictions - Because this is an off-site, catered event, the menu is set, and thus we are unable to accommodate any dietary requests. See picture below for the menu.
Proceeds - The standard $125 reservation covers catering, venue rental, and a $25 donation. Additional costs such as centerpieces, party favors, payment fees, and so on require underwriting. All proceeds go to Whimsicalitea—a 501(c)(3) arts nonprofit
Cancellations/Refunds - All reservations are final, and there are no refunds. If you are unable to attend, please feel free to give your spot to a loved one, or you may elect to donate your seat back to us and take a full $125 tax deduction on your payment
There are more opportunities to help a worthy cause . . .
You may want to consider underwriting or a sponsorship.
There are several options.
We are just dying to see you!
