An Easter Ladies Luncheon is the perfect way to celebrate the arrival of spring while spending time with your favorite ladies. Now and then, it’s fun to do something really girly—you know, bouquets of flowers, dainty china, girly drinks, petite fours, and fancy napkins. Easter is the perfect holiday for this so here are some creative ideas for hosting a sophisticated yet fun-filled luncheon that celebrates friendships and the beauty of spring.
Menu:
- Sausage-Cheese Strata
- French toast
- Fried Potatoes and Onions
- Wheat toast with homemade strawberry jam
- Easter Petite Fours
- Fruit Tart
Drinks:
- Fresh Juices: Orange, Grapefruit, and/or Pineapple
- Bloody Marys
- Mimosas
Decorations:
- Simple holiday and/or springtime decorations such as bouquets of white or pastel flowers in matching vases.
- Baskets of pastel Easter eggs are perfect for your table setting or food buffet.
- A dyed egg that matches the placemats for each place setting adds a nice touch
Tips:
As with any event, do as much as possible the day before. For instance, arrange the flowers, set the table, and prepare as much of the food as you can (like the strata and the petite fours) the night before. This will make your morning run much more smoothly.
