We have something special brewing for our little girls and the special male figures in their lives! Our Father-Daughter Royal Tea Party will feature a "Wonderland" theme as well as tea party refreshments, stories and crafts, and a father-daughter dance to close the night out! There will also be a visit from the Azalea Trail Maids, who will be present to teach the girls how to curtsy! Keep in mind, that "father figures" are not extended to fathers only! It could be a step-father, family friend, guardian, uncle or any male relative! We just want to highlight the importance of positive male role models in a young girls life, and create a space for a magical and memorable evening!
