Greetings everyone! The Netlink of Eorzean Taverns is please to present the second annual Lalafell Tea Party. Unfortunately, because of Rowena's hectic schedule with the success of her business, we were not able to secure the location used in the previous year. However, the Black Rabbit Traders have kindly invited us to host the tea party at the Mih Khetto's Amphiteatre! The theme for this year will be inspired by Lewis Caroll's & Tom Burton's Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass, and features light/bold/pastel colors, florae and the season of Spring.

 

In additional to the new location, we will also be implementing something new this year called a "currency exchange". Our guests and patrons will need to exchange gil in order to participate in all the activities and games, as well as, to purchase items at the cafe and from our vendors at the tea party. The currency exchange pricing can be found in the details below.

 

*** Please note that you don't have to be a roleplayer nor a Lalafell to attend or participate in the event, but having proper dining etiquette is appreciated. Thank you for your understand. Hope to see you at the tea party!

First of all, Thanks for inviting GP, we love attending social events.

 Second of all, Raeje is extremely intrigued by "Queen of Linguistics" 

What exactly does this position involve? 

Raeje is splendid with syntzax, 

She is a lyrical lexicon,

She's a major wordy nerdy, and a bard to boot, so please contact me with whatever this position entails, whether it be a competition that she must enter, or just something she has to show up and do.

Yea... Sorry that you won't be able to attend the tea party. An event is always better with more people. Honestly, when I was planning this, I was debating if I should or shouldn't move it to a weekend, but I was also trying to avoid overlapping over other roleplaying events. /comfort =c

Thanks for registering early! W'aelwyn should have given you a Bronze Ingot so that you can exchange for Pearl Chocolates to use at the event. Good luck on your performance!

[Raeje]

She didn't yet, but I think we're going to go into more detail about it all in this week's meeting, so she probably will give us all of the details then.

I have a few good shots. Nothing from before the fashion show, because I couldn't be there, but I have quite a few shots of the fashion show, a couple of Ms Fury's fight, and a few of the dance off at the end. I also have some shots of the audience that I can post too. I'm heading to bed, but I have to stay off work tomorrow, so I will make sure I get them on the tumblr.

 

I had fun though. Thanks again for another event.
