The first day of spring is almost here, but in some parts of the world, it already feels like spring. This is the season where we start to see brunches, teas, and women’s day programs. Not to mention Easter celebrations. Here’s how you can plan your women’s group spring brunch.
In this post, you’ll find simple ideas for: venue choices, spring tea party décor, brunch menu items, entertainment ideas, and invitations.
Venue Choices
Pick a venue suitable for the size of the attendees.
- The church fellowship hall should have plenty of room.
- Home gatherings for smaller groups
- Restaurant, coffeehouse, or tea room: If you have a larger budget
Decor
- Flowers are always suitable decorations for a brunch
- Pearls or seashells
- Pastel or white tablecloths are appealing
- Floral centerpieces or get creative with candles
Menu
For the menu, include an assortment of dishes. For brunch, you want to have a combination of breakfast food and lunch. This usually involves both sweet and savory items.
You can have continental breakfast items, such as:
- pastries
- croissants
- muffins
- bagels
- fruit
You can also have lunch items such as:
- finger sandwiches
- smoked salmon
- deviled eggs
- quiche
- a veggie tray
Depending on the time of day, you can even offer heavier items, such as:
- meatballs
- pasta salad
- wings
Don’t forget desserts such as:
- an assortment of cookies
- pastries
- cake
And last but not least, drink options:
- An assortment of tea (the main event)
- Coffee
- Lemonade
- Water
Just keep in mind that if you have the brunch at a restaurant, they will most likely require you to purchase food from their restaurant instead of bringing your own.
Entertainment
For the entertainment, you can have:
- a guest speaker
- a scripture reading
- a musician to play an instrument or sing
- a poetry reading
You can even play light music as everyone eats. The point is for everyone to enjoy the food and fellowship.
Invitations
Nowadays, you can create beautiful invitations using Canva, or you can use online invitation services. If this is a church function, a simple church announcement with RSVP contact information could be used as well.
