Vintage picnics



A vintage picnic - what a romantic, original way to propose to your loved one! Just picture a lovely sunny day, a picnic basket filled with delicious food and sparkling wine, bunting in the trees and no sound apart from the birds and perhaps a babbling brook nearby, ok sorry that was a little cheesy but still very lovely!



I am now offering a vintage picnic service, you can hire all of my lovely vintage china to take on your picnic, plus a set up service at the location of your choice (or ours if you wish!) and gorgeous food too; consisting of salmon and cream cheese bellinis, sandwiches with a choice of 3 fillings, a cupcake, a pot of tea, milk and sugar, scones with jam and cream, elderflower cordial and a punnet of fresh strawberries. All you need to do is chat to us about your menu and we can put it together for you.







All of the fruit is home grown by us at the Vintage and Cake allotment and everything will of course be home made, so you can guarantee fresh, lovely, home baked tastes.




It is a novel way to propose to your loved one or even for a hen do, no matter what your occasion a vintage picnic is the way to do it this summer.

The tea dance is on!


My meeting with The Moorside Grange Hotel went really well today, we met with the lovely Rebecca Massey the events manager and chatted about tea, cakes and dancing! I took along some lovely vintage china to show her and we got a date in the diary for the event. It is to be Sunday 9th May 2010 from 2pm - 5pm, the band will play from 3pm and there will be a dance workshop including The Jive, Quickstep, Waltz, Tango, Cha Cha Cha and many more!!! It will be fabulous. I will be providing china for each table, teacups and saucers and 3 tier cake stands all laden with scones, finger sandwiches plus there will be some classic cakes such as Victoria sponge and coffee and walnut all provided by Vintage and Cake aka ME! Tickets will work out to be £20.00 each and the hotel is working on a weekend deal, so an over night stay, dinner, breakfast and the tea dance with a few more bits and bobs included, details TBC. The hotel is beautiful, the views are to die for, the sweeping countryside is breathtaking on the drive up and the room that the tea dance will be held in is very in keeping with this wonderful tradition. I am just a little bit excited can you tell? I will keep you posted about this event as everyone is welcome!
