Afternoon tea ideas for a child's birthday
A flowery haven in east Marseille, treats to share and a beautifully laid table: everything you need to imagine the party your child dreams of.
The afternoon tea is the heart of the party
At Yona, in La Valentine (13011), a birthday tea party is designed as a gentle moment: you gather the little crew around one table, share sweet treats and let the party settle in, unhurried.
Pink pancakes crowned with red berries, girly pastries and gourmet drinks: the first idea, and the simplest, is to build an afternoon tea that little ones and grown-ups dip into together.
Six birthday tea party ideas
The all-pink tea party
Match the table to the setting: pink treats, girly drinks and garlands. An easy theme to hold, and one that always shines in the photos.
Sweet & savoury
Not every child has a sweet tooth: a few savoury bites alongside the pastries, and everyone builds the plate that suits them.
The gift corner
A little table dedicated to parcels and cards: the children open, marvel, and the tea party quietly picks up where it left off.
The photo tea party
The flower wall and gilded frames work as a studio: capture the table, the candles and the whole gang pulling faces.
Tea with friends
A big table for the class or the neighbourhood crew: you book, you settle in, and the team takes care of the service.
Tea party at home
Not in the mood to go out? Our catering service builds a girly, generous afternoon tea to take away, and the party happens at your place.
A birthday tea party, step by step
Pick the date
A weekday or weekend afternoon: book the table in advance, especially from Friday to Sunday.
Build the menu
Sweet, savoury or both: choose from the menu according to the age, appetite and mood of your guests.
Lay the table
Candles, garlands, little touches: you bring the personal detail, the flowery setting does the rest.
Blow out the candles
The team handles the service and you simply enjoy: all that's left is to sing and open the gifts.
A room already dressed for the occasion
A ceiling of pink flowers, gilded frames and soft light: at Yona, there is nothing to decorate. The setting is already here — all you have to add are the candles.
It is also the clever idea for parents: no living room to prepare beforehand, no crumbs to sweep afterwards. You arrive, you celebrate, you leave with memories to treasure.
