As Mother’s Day approaches, it’s time to celebrate the strong, fabulous, and independent women in our lives. Treating mom to a lavish brunch is one of the many ways that we have chosen to celebrate the special women in our lives. Whether you’re a seasoned chef/ host or a novice in the kitchen, here’s a guide that we have created to help you craft a memorable and fabulous Mother's Day that will make Mom feel truly cherished.
The cornerstone of any great brunch is, of course, the food. Planning a menu that balances both savory and sweet flavors while remembering to incorporate Mom’s favorite dishes. You can never go wrong with classics like pancakes, eggs Benedict, fresh French toast, and decadent pastries.
Setting the scene for a luxurious brunch experience can only be done by paying attention to extreme detail of the ambiance. Glam up your table with posh linens, fresh flowers, candles and candelabras, and stylish tableware. Background music can also enhance the atmosphere, whether it’s a soothing instrumental playlist or jamming to Mom’s favorite tunes.
Incorporate thoughtful touches throughout your space to make Mom feel extra special. A photo collage featuring cherished memories, or set up a DIY Bloody Mary bar where guests can customize their drinks with an array of juices and fruit garnishes.
No brunch is complete without a selection of delightful spirits. Impress Mom and guests by serving up some signature cocktails or mocktails. Classics like mimosas and Bloody Mary’s are always a hit, but don’t be afraid to get creative with unique flavor combinations and garnishes.
Mother’s Day is all about pampering your Mom, so don’t skimp on any indulgences. Our suggestion is to add a dessert course featuring Mom’s favorite sweets, such as chocolate-covered strawberries, rich cheesecake, or gourmet truffles.
Finally, be sure to capture the memories of this special occasion with plenty of photos. Snapping candid shots of Mom enjoying her party or posing for a formal family portrait, these pics will serve as cherished mementos for years to come.
