Relax and enjoy an afternoon with family and good friends in the Cady Inn.  Feast on a delicious assortment of tea sandwiches, delectable scones and decadent desserts along with our signature Cady House Tea served on our finest china.  Tea catered by Victoria’s Tea Salon.  


Stroll down to the church for an interesting and informative talk by Susan Nenadic.  Learn the facts about the love lives of Victorian women. Were they prepared for the marriage bed?
