FAQs
Renting a tea room out for an event might sound like an extravagant undertaking, but while it might seem expensive in theory, all in all, these tea room events are surprisingly affordable. On average these events usually run around $20-$50/person, and while this might not strictly be considered cheap, many venues offer a variety of packages and food options, which is what allows the average’s per person charge to vary so drastically. Some venues might also charge extra based on how long your event lasts, many might have a two-hour window during which you can host your event, but many also charge an extra fee based on how many hours you go over your allotted time. Overall, these venues are affordable and can fit a variety of budgets, and while these locations can still be a tad bit expensive, the memories made at your tea room event will be more than worth it.
While hosting an event at a tea room might sound like a unique and memorable experience, there are many aspects to account for when planning an event in a tea room, both positive and negative: Pros - Hosting a tea room event will ensure a memorable experience for your guests, its budget is flexible based on your guest list, it gives you and your guests an opportunity to dress up (even in costume if your event is themed), you will not have to oversee or take care of making or cleaning up any of the food, and you get the opportunity to enjoy your party rather than stress about playing the attentive host. Cons - While the event might be memorable, it might also be expensive, the guest list might end up being smaller than you’d like (or larger if the venue has a minimum number of guests requirement), if it’s not a private room you might have to share the room with others, and while it might be 2021 since tea parties are stereotypically feminine, the men you might invite might decline to attend.
