Flashback Friday: Alice in Wonderland Tea Party

Marc and I attended SBA and Oakland Grown‘s mixer last night.  It was really wonderful meeting with fellow “local lovers” and small business owners.  During my conversation with Lisa of High Spirits Event Planning about my Farewell to my Roaring 20’s party, I mentioned how I celebrated my 26th birthday by throwing an Alice in Wonderland Tea Party.  Hope you don’t mind a quick trip down memory lane!

My birthday was right in the middle of finals during my first year of law school and it was so wonderful to take a break from it and celebrate with my dearest friends.   Most of our costumes were purchased at local thrift stores.
