Everyone who knows me personally, knows just how much, I ABSOLUTELY! adore all things high tea and girly. Pretty and pink with lots of beautiful feminine things is totally my thing! It was only fitting that I just couldn’t wait to attend The High Tea Party for 2019 in Brisbane! I loved everything about the event and could honestly not speak more highly of the event. It was 5-star all of the way and a must-see and do for ladies all around the country! Mark it in your diaries gals, you don’t want to miss out on this one! You will be guaranteed to have the best day with your nearest and dearest. Special memories will be formed, selfies will be taken, champers will be sipped and let’s face it girls, shopping will be an essential must-do!
The High Tea Party provides a beautiful high tea with sparkling wine within a gorgeous ballroom at five star venues around the country! Attendees can sit back, and relax with their girlfriends or closest family and enjoy watching an amazing fashion parade, all whilst you sip away on bubbles and enjoy scrumptious petite fours!
The shopping also is an absolute must! There are so many fantastic offers on the day and the retail markets are definitely my fave part of the day, aside from the high tea and fashion parade itself, of course! The Mini Pamper stations are an absolute must too! Doors open at 9am sharp and close at approximately 7pm.

So many amazing exhibitors were at the event! Loved meeting all of the beautiful business owners and seeing their amazing products.
I just adore pearls! Girls and their pearls as they say. Did you know? Once I actually found a real life pearl in an Oyster on Christmas Eve! Unfortunately I don’t have it anymore, but the experience I will never ever forget!
Jewellery, jewellery and more jewellery! Loved the range, loved all of the stalls on offer. It was so great that before you enjoyed high tea, you could enjoy wondering the exhibitors pop-up shop stalls before heading in to the main ballroom.
‘The Pink Carpet’ was such a sweet touch to the event! I just loved it. Who doesn’t love a dash of pink everywhere they go? Anyone who knows me knows how much I just adore everything pink. Pink makes the world go around in my eyes!
The Luxe Lounge was so amazing! There were some beautiful treats on offer for the guests who upgraded to the Luxe Lounge Package. You felt like a real VIP High Tea Party goer. It was so very beautiful inside, very pretty with lots of pink!
The gorgeous cheese platter which Luxe Lounge Guests received.
The Luxe Lounge is a must-do ladies! I know that I will definitely be doing it next year with my ticket.
Rose – the perfect drop for a girls afternoon at The Hilton, Brisbane. It’s so nice to have time out and about. Being a busy mum with the two boys, I hardly ever get out at the moment. I savoured every single moment. Would love to do it all again soon!
Being a former journo, I just can’t go past reading the latest Brisbane News magazine! I am so in love with magazines. The best part is that Brisbane News is absolutely free and jam-packed with all of the latest local news and events around town.
The decor styling was just beautiful. High tea, pink, pretty little things, cocktails and the most beautiful decor furniture that I ever did see! I was in heaven all afternoon.
Birdsnest was on-hand for the beautiful fashion show to showcase their gorgeous range. The beautiful Stacey Mcgregs was there as one of the beautiful models, the fashion was all just beautiful and I totally wanted to buy up big!
The customised cheese platters were simply amazing! With three compartments, it had everything that you would ever want in a cheese platter. It was pure perfection! Another must-experience at the Luxe Lounge.
So much pretty lighting and decor. Shine bright like a diamond. The whole event space had you feeling really inspired, feminine and girly. It really was such an enjoyable afternoon. One which I will always remember.
One of my favourite moments of the day was checking out the gorgeous pink forest backdrop wall inside the Luxe Lounge. It was so very beautiful, one of my fave spots on the day!
The venue simply was divine in every way and totally lived up to it’s 5-star status. The venue exceeded my expectations. I hope to return again to bring my family and stay a night one day!

*I attended the event as a blogger and was kindly gifted two tickets. Thank you so much to the beautiful team at The High Tea Party. I feel so very blessed to have been able to attend. I’ll definitely be back again next year! Thank you also to the amazing venue host, Hilton Brisbane! It’s such an exquisite hotel in the heart of the city. I have always had a soft spot for the hotel and I can’t wait to return to experience the hotel overnight one day. Take note, hubby, hint, hint for our anniversary! 🙂
