Treasured Tea Parties FAQ’s

(Frequently asked questions)

What is the deposit amount required?

There is a $100 deposit that will be collected at the time the party reservation is made. The balance of the party price will be paid in full one week prior to the party.

What happens if I have to cancel my party?

Cancellations made more than one week prior to the party date will forfeit the $100 deposit. Cancellations made within a week of the party date will forfeit the entire purchase price of the party. If a cancellation needs to be made due to an illness or emergency the party can be re-scheduled for a later date without forfeiting any deposits.

Do adults stay during the party?

One adult is required to attend the parties and we recommend that they bring up to two guests of their choice to help with getting the girls dressed and the make-up sessions.  We will not have room for all the parents at the party. Parents will be asked to drop off their children in time for the party and pick them up promptly when the party ends.  An adult will also need to stay until all girls have been picked up by their parents.

What happens if a guest has food allergies?

It will be your responsibility to check for food allergies. Should any of your guests have food allergies, we will try our best to be accommodating. If a guest should have severe allergies, we recommend that either you or the child’s parent provide an alternate menu for that child. 

Who takes care of a guest if they become ill, are a behavior problem, or do not want to participate?

Children will be expected to behave appropriately throughout the party to ensure the guest of honor has the best party experience possible. It will be your responsibility to monitor and take charge if a child is not behaving, becomes ill, or does not want to participate.    

How do I reserve a party date?

Parties are booked on a first come, first serve basis. When a party date and time have been selected, a deposit will be necessary to secure your reservation.  We suggest booking parties at least 4-6 weeks in advance.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept checks, money orders, cash and credit cards.

Where are the parties held?

Parties are held at Treasured Tea Parties in the tea party house at 61960 janalee pl Bend, OR.

What time can I have my party?

We will work to accommodate your schedule.

What ages are you parties for?

Parties are for children ages 4 to 10 years of age.

How long are the parties?

Parties are one and a half hour in length.

Do you have a minimum/maximum attendance?

Parties may be scheduled for up to 8  or more children. If less than 8 attend your party, you will still be charged for 8 children. Maximum attendance is 12 but we recommend no more than 10 for the best party experience for your child.

Are invitations included?

Custom invitations are included in the party package price.  You supply us with the guest list, and we will create invitations for you to send or hand deliver to invited guests.

What should the children wear?

Girls should wear white hosiery or tights for the ballerina and fairy parties. Light colored hosiery or tights should be worn with the dress up and princess parties. Slips or bathing suits can also be worn under the dresses and costumes.

When do you need the final R.S.V.P. count?

You will need to contact me at least 4 days prior to your party with a RSVP count to determine the headcount for the event. This will be the number we use to plan appropriate quantities of food for the party.

Can siblings of the guest stay?

As long as they are supervised. We provide many accessories that contain small parts at many of the parties and they may not be appropriate for very small children. The parties are planned for only the guest of honor and their guests and we are not able to accommodate unexpected guests or siblings of guests, as we prepare parties based on the final headcount given to us prior to the party. Siblings, who are not guests of the guest of honor will not be permitted to use any equipment at the party. Our goal is to make the party a special treasured day for your child and having them be the center of attention without distractions from younger siblings can be the best way to have the perfect party for them.

What happens if guests arrive late?

Because our parties are based on a schedule, they work best when all guests arrive on time. Those guests coming late may join the party at whatever point the party has progressed to.
