if you are getting a full blown kimono (all the underwear, himo and etc) then you are gonna really need to have someone teach you how to wear it. If you live in a major city see if there are any Japan Societies in your area. Contact them and maybe you can find someone who is certified in dressing and teaching others how to wear kimono.
(If you have a yukata then there are tons of sites that show you step by step to dress yourself).

Tea ceremonies in Japan are very complex and cultural. I think you actually need a Japanese style home/room to do one, but I'm not sure. It's a difficult process and I don't think there's just a 'simple' way that anyone can learn easily. Then again, I may be wrong.

I just like to point out that if you are going to have one with guests and everything, then you need to practice alot. Because if I remember my global history class correctly it has to be done exactly perfect

eek Im sorry Da Mint. I read your post the wrong way. The numbers threw me off.
Tea Ceremony is a step by step process and it is very rigid down to the color socks you wear when entering a tea ceremony room (they must be white!!). It would probably be best to find someone who teachs tea ceremony and what how he or she directs their student during the lesson. I went to a practice tea ceremony and found if fascinating but rigid. Each move is practiced over and over agan and your guests have to be seated a certain way and they too drink a certain way.
I say have a tea ceremony that you are comfortable with. Go to a Japanese restaurant tell them you want a private tatami room and enjoy eating awesome Japanese food and drinking tea with your friends in your kimono or yukata.

I've only seen a tea ceremony on video - those moves are as complicated as 'Naruto' ninjutsu. xd
