Kim and the Empress Tea Room are wonderful, this venue has all the ambiance you need for a bridal shower or elegant wedding reception, ceremonies out on the courtyard in the evening are especially beautiful. A bridal shower at this location would be perfect to have a great time for everyone!!!! Love you Kim!
