SUMMARY:Holiday Tea and Tour
DESCRIPTION:Holiday Tea &amp; Tour\nCelebrate the season with us at our Holiday Tea &amp; Tour! Join us on Sunday, December 6, at 10 am or 1 pm in the Lake Shore Room.\nA glass of champagne greets you when you arrive. Then, the Florella Strings fill the room with music while you enjoy a holiday tea from The Spice and Tea Exchange of Grosse Pointe. Our team serves seasonal savories, pastries, and sweets with the same warm care Eleanor Ford brought to her own holiday table. At your table, you will find a handout on Albert Kahn, the famous architect who designed the estate. Take it with you on your tour to spot his work in the rooms, rooflines, and details all around you.\nAfter tea, explore the Main Residence and grounds at your own pace. Eleanor decorated her home in a simple, elegant holiday style, and you will see it just as she liked it. Along the way, you can:\n\nSee Eleanor’s tea caddies on display in the Drawing Room.\nShop the Vendor Market in the Cove.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Spice and Tea Exchange of Grosse Pointe: Take home your favorite tea from the event.\nThe Beaute Loft: Treat yourself or a loved one to handmade soaps and fragrances.\nMerrick and Maupin Mercantile: Try a “blind date with a book.” Each book comes wrapped, so the story is a surprise. It makes the perfect gift!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStroll the winter gardens and enjoy the quiet beauty of the grounds.\n\nGather your friends and family for a holiday tradition you will remember.\nTicketsWe sell tickets by the table, and seats are limited. Buy early to save your spot! We plan table sizes and placements ahead of time to give every guest a great experience, so we cannot change them.\nMenu\nClick here to view the menu.
