Holiday Tea
December 7th, and 8th
$85 plus fees
December 7th and December 8th from 11am – 12:30pm and 3pm – 4:30pm
For over a century, several of the families who once called Lyndhurst home, infused the mansion with the magic of the holiday season.
Lavishly decorated, Lyndhurst would come alive with holiday dishes gracing the tables as music filled the rooms with the sounds of Christmas.
Inspired by these traditions, the Holiday Tea will celebrate the genre of music that accompanied the families’ gatherings, with a short program highlighting the history of carols and melodies with a special focus on those with seasonal fare references.
Led by Bridget Bray, owner of the Puddings and Biscakes teas and the creator of custom-crafted tea experiences, the Holiday Tea experience promises to capture the spirit of the season, and we invite you to join in the merriment.
Ideally suited for guests to join on their own or with others, the Holiday Tea will take place on Saturday December 7 and Sunday December 8 from 11am – 12:30pm and 3pm-4:30pm. Fine teas from the Puddings and Biscakes collection will be offered alongside a selection of holiday sweets that will include scones with jam, clotted cream and seasonal spreads; mince pies, gingerbread cookies, sugar cookies – and figgy pudding. The Holiday Tea is comprised of a short program, an array of sweet offerings and tea, and will take place within the Carriage House.
