The idea caught on. Everyone wanted to give teas. However, only the dommes had submissive servers to do the serving, and most of the ladies had only one server. The group had grown to the point where one server wasn't able to adequately serve all the ladies who attended Especially since part of the program had become showcasing the main service talents of the server belonging to the hostess whether it be cooking, or foot massage.
Then, the crisis. Domina and Diva were cohosting a tea to be held at WinterSwan's house. Unfortunately, Diva was forced to release her sub, and Domina's other playmate was unavailable. Due to previous commitments and mishaps and because of the short notice, no other sub was available and Feynman ended up serving the tea alone. During the hunt to find a second sub just for the tea, the idea of forming a tea society and training servers JUST for the teas was formed. Domina meanwhile had found the website for the Ladies Tea and Rhetoric Society, and Lady C's sub, R, had also mentioned that he found the idea of simply serving with no other interest being paid to him to be very enticing. So, at the March tea, it was formally decided to begin a Northern California Society for the express purpose of holding monthly teas.
The majority of the teas are held in Hayward or San Jose but some are held in the San Francisco, Sacramento, or other places. Of such events, history is made.
The ladies now have tea parties and, on occasion, the teaservers are invited to serve at other types of parties where the rules of behavior may be a bit less formal. Still, the tradition of good service and good manners is expected.
