I would love to go to this. Sadly, the Springs are too far for me at the moment. I don't know if I could pay the gas there.
Good luck with this, though. It has potential to be really lovely.
If this gets a good response, I'm definitely going to look into doing this more often, and possibly in other cities, such as Denver.
Moving onto other things, here's more info.
Location: It seems the location will be at the private meeting room in Panera Bread at 7344 N Academy Blvd
Colorado Springs, CO 80920 for reference, that's close to the Chapel Hills Mall.
Dress code: Cosplay is open. However cosplays that fit a tea party setting are strongly encouraged, such as Pandora Hearts, Alice in Wonderland, Kuroshitsuji and others, but if you want to cosplay say... Hatsune Miku, or someone from Kingdom Hearts, that's allowed as well. Feel free to go all out with your cosplays (wigs, make up, etc) in fact, this is also encouraged! But leave props at home. Sorry Sora, you can't bring your keyblade to the party. Alternative fashions such as Lolita are also welcome, as are normal clothes. Also, be mindful of dress codes, please don't come in your bikini armor.
Rules: Mind your Ps and Qs. By no means am I saying that we must all sit quietly and sip tea with our pinkies extended, but be mindful. No screaming, no throwing food, no reenacting battle scenes... You get the idea.
Other: Bring your camera! Pictures will be taken!
If it's allowed, I'll be bringing a music player.
I MAY require a small entrance fee. This is dependent on the overall costs, and if it costs anything to use the room. I hate to do this, but considering that the party will require usage of a room, food, drinks, and possibly decorations, I would have to offset the cost somehow. However I will try to keep it as low as possible. (within the $5-$10 range, depending) Of course there may be no fee at all.
thoughts? suggestions? When would you guys like to see this done?
