With Season 3 on the way and interest in the Netflix series running red hot, this is the time to jump right on that bandwagon, and entertain your friends with our Bridgerton-inspired murder mystery game. Here are just a few of the reasons why…
The challenge
Play the Ton’s Tea Party and you will experience the challenge of finding who killed the Duke at his own ball, but also who the elusive Lady Thistledown, the scandal sheet writer, truly is. With double the secrets to uncover, this game will provide a real test for all you aspiring detectives out there. While also filling the gap until the next season drops in May, of course!
The costumes
One of the things that gets people so excited about the Netflix show is how visually stunning it is, and you don’t have to break the bank to achieve a beautiful looking party this spring. Having a garden full of your friends dressed up with elbow length gloves, fans, top hats, and more is an epic way to spend a warm spring afternoon.
You don’t have to go out and buy full ball gowns to look fabulous, and with our costume suggestions and helpful extras, you will be dressed to kill and finding the killer in no time.
The music
Who doesn’t adore the orchestral and beautiful versions of songs that feature throughout this show? Each of our murder mystery games comes with its own Spotify playlist, and the one that comes with the Ton’s Tea Party is full of all the best songs that the soundtrack has to offer. As well as a few additions that go perfectly with the theme.
The right ambience is essential when throwing a party like this, and the right music will soon have your guests swooning and fanning themselves in delight.
The decorations and props
Enjoy our suggested cocktails served from a teapot and sipped from a cup and saucer, set the table with tiered cake stands full of delicacies, and get ready to eat and drink in style with this Bridgerton-themed set-up.
