Simple Spring Colors
Mother’s Day is the perfect spring holiday. For your upcoming brunch, tie the season and the holiday together with seasonal colors, cocktails, and fun bites like fresh fruit and simple snacks. Some of our favorite bites like these? Melon-balled fruit, fruit-based cocktails, mini quiches, and small danishes. Not only are these dishes simple and delicious, they go perfectly with seasonal colors such as yellow, lush green, light pink, and soft peach.

Colorful & Curated
To take things to the next level, curate your Mother’s Day brunch to become a true event. First, be sure to adorn the table with things that are fitting to your guests’s style. If they love to use fine china, use those in the place settings along with classic floral centerpieces like hydrangeas. If they are women of simplicity, have the place settings consist of a decorative name card and just one of their favorite flowers. When it comes to the menu, simply serve their favorite dishes.

Breakfast in Bed
Mother’s day is for pampering and appreciating the women who raised us! One of the best ways to spoil them is with a breakfast-in-bed-style brunch. The key to executing this theme perfectly is to make the decor classy and the setting very comfortable. Once you’ve set the table with classic farm style dishes and vintage crystal goblets, you can then encourage your guests to dress up in their finest pajamas and host the brunch on the outside sofas for a cozier feel.

Cocktails & Charcuterie
We love a tablescape filled with charcuterie and other smorgasbord dishes. It makes for such a simple yet appetizing layout. Add simple and fresh cocktails like sangria, mimosas, or white wine options and your guests are sure to love the simply chic effort put into the brunch. Instead of individual place settings, use quality butcher blocks and other bold serving boards along with stainless steel flatware and serving ware.

Nature Inspired Details
One of the best things about brunch is that it’s traditionally held outdoors. With this, you’re able to include almost any type of decor. Our favorite outdoor table top idea includes nature-inspired settings and decor. We recommend sticking to a subtle design with linens and plates, a unique color of flatware, and pops of color in your centerpieces and glassware. Utilizing wooden plates paired with colors such as blues, greens, and soft pinks are sure to bring the whole look together in a natural and fresh way.
