This beautiful rosewood carved trolley from Amazon, which comes complete with a detachable serving tray, and opens up as a table is ideal to make you the host or hostess with the mostess.

8. Shade with sartorial conscience
In true English garden party style, weather is bound to be a topic of conversation, so offer your guests a little shade from the sun, with a decorative vintage-style sun parasol. Make a bold and glamorous vintage statement with this Victoriana-shaped cream umbrella with tassels, from Burford.

These pretty glass lanterns from Not on the High Street bear the words 'Fete au Jardin,' and have room for a tea light. What better way to leave a lasting impression on guests than with a little candlelit chic.

Need a charming name for a fictional, wealthy town.?

I'm writing a book and the main characters are Arielle Montgomery and Colin Sinclair. They are both from wealthy families and I'm making up a fictional wealthy town for the story to take place in, but I'm having trouble coming up with names. I want something cute and charming like "Stars Hollow" (from Gilmore Girls) or "Rosewood" (from Pretty Little Liars). Any suggestions would be great!
