The Biltmore Hotel, in the affluent Miami suburb of Coral Gables, was a dreamlike setting for an all-girl’s Vintage High Tea. The 273-room hotel is an elegant prominent historic landmark in Miami. I love the hand-painted fresco’s and barrel vaulted ceilings. As a result, I was very excited to photograph here.
Farrah was celebrating a monumental birthday. Therefore, she wanted to organize something special to remember the occasion. As a result, she engaged in the creative help of Events By Carmen. Carmen designed a beautifully feminine, blush pink high tea in one of the hotel’s historic, dreamlike ballrooms. Probably one of the most beautifully designed events I’ve photographed to date.
The guests dined at the table with unique place settings. The vintage-style bone china tableware and antique-inspired water glasses and cutlery were so gorgeous. The most beautiful pink and blush floral displays I’ve ever seen adorned the table.
ENJOY THESE PICTURES FROM THIS VINTAGE HIGH TEA
A floral backdrop was set up so guests can enjoy taking selfies and group photographs.
Farrah’s guests enjoyed a selection of tasty bites including curried chicken salad, lamb carpaccio, and anise toasted pumpernickel. The climax of all the details from this high tea was the gorgeous dessert table. The cute-as-a-button desserts were displayed on a pink antique dresser complete with an antique-inspired mirror and chalk-board. Most of all, the star of the show was the pink floral birthday cake.
A harpist played during the high tea. Such a classy event!
