Mid Winter Adventures

Teatime has discovered a delightful new facility in Stafford VA, Rock Hill Plantation, www.rockhillplantation.com. Located approximately an hour south of Washington DC, the facility provides a lovely backdrop for a indoor or outdoor ceremony. Check out their site, we were there Sunday March 4th, with a reception of 100 guests. The weather was too chilly for the ceremony to be held outside in the gazebo, but the reception grand room could accommodate both the ceremony and the reception. Guests were particularly enamored with the white chocolate and raspberry filled wedding cake!

Another find earlier this month is the American Legion right in the heart of Fairfax City, VA. While they don’t have a website describing the space, you can get general information at www.post177.org, and the contact person is Cindy@post177.org. We did a police officer retirement party March 2, and the space is very pretty, the ballroom can accommodate at least 150 plus guests. In the warm weather, there is a wrap around balcony that provides even more guest accommodations. I didn’t even know this property was there!

Trend setting appetizer of 2007? Can it possibly be pigs in a blanket? Stranger things have happened!
