Eggstraordinary Hosting Hacks: Easter Edition

Easter is the perfect time for family gatherings of all ages, but it can feel like a lot of pressure on the household tasked with hosting. To make things easier, we have gathered some of our top tips and tricks on how to make Easter lunch a Spring breeze.

1. Decoration Time!

We often attribute decorations to Christmas, but Easter decorations are grossly underrated. You may not have them up for quite so long, but they are easy to DIY with items you either already own or will be able to keep and repurpose without needing to create storage space for the rest of the year. You can even make decorations once your guests have arrived to entertain kids and bigger kids alike!

2. Tablescaping

Having so many options for decorations means you don’t have to think too hard on your tablescaping. Use decorated eggs to dot around the table as a fun point of interest, or make an Easter wreath into a centrepiece with a candle in the middle. Another easy way to make your table look ready for the season is by using flowers. A simple arrangement can elevate your dining table and bring a pastel Spring palette to your space, no matter your décor.

3. Seating Plans

A seating plan might feel a little bit formal for a family gathering but sometimes it’s the only way to keep family politics at bay! There are fun ways to designate where everybody sits so that your feuding Aunt and Uncle can keep their domestics to their home dining table instead of yours, so pop a cute party favour in everyone’s place and keep the smiles going throughout the meal.

4. Food, Glorious Food!

Ah yes, the main event… Food! (Easter Egg Hunt, who?!) A delicious roast dinner, a buffet of devilled eggs and mini cornflake cake nests, huge chocolate desserts; Easter is a theme that just lends itself to great grub. Spend the day around the table (with an extending table you can fit even more of you!), from brunch to board games, and canapes to cocktails, your dining table will almost do the hosting for you!
