Hi! So my wedding will be vintage themed and I am looking to order sets of porcelain tea cups, pots, and sugar bowls. I will use the tea pot as my bridal shower centerpiece and display fresh flowers in it (play a game and have one person per table win it). Then I will give out tea cups to each person as a bridal shower favor. The sugar bowls will be the wedding favors. I am looking to have mix and match sets so that the guests can have unique collections. I will also be having 250-300 guests so I am trying to keep prices as low as possible. Does anyone know where I can buy something like this in bulk/for cheap? http://31.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2ugx1s9ob1qj2u1wo1_400.jpg

I'm not sure if it would be more financially practical to rent but check out http://www.littlevintagerentals.com

Thanks for the suggestion! However, I am looking to actually purchase these so that I can give them to my guests

I'm not sure where you can get them in bulk. I used to work for a tea room and I know they got alot of their sets from auctions and antique shops.

Vintage Tea Cup Sets
I went to a tea party bridal shower last year and the bride did something like that (tea cup set with some shortbread cookies, a little jar of honey and some tea bags.) I wish I could say where she got them from, but they looked vintage-y
I basically informed my bridal party and close family to keep an eye out at yard sales, and have been going to thrift shops and salvation armies myself in order to collect all of the cups, teapots, etc. that I want to have for the wedding. We started looking way in advance so we have the time to collect enough, and get them for cheap! Good luck
