For Mother’s Day, hotel buffets are a no-go. It's all about the Labour of Love, so set up something cuter, cosier, and way more her. We’re talking fresh blooms, soft sunlight, and a table that says “I love you” with every little detail.
1. Lay It On (the Table):
Start with a tablecloth that feels like a hug—think breezy linen, cheeky gingham, or something pastel and punchy. Layer it up with joyful plates, printed napkins, and glassware that clinks with charm.
2. Pick a Palette, Stick to It (Kind Of):
A little colour theory never hurt anyone. Go full softie with blush and butter yellow, or dial it up with coral, blue, and berry tones. Flowers help tie it all together—stick ‘em in anything from mason jars to mum’s old teacups.
3. Add the Schmaltz:
Mini love notes, old photos tucked under napkin rings, or place cards with inside jokes = instant tearjerker. Cute wins. Always.
4. Brunch Food, But Make It Pretty:
Stack your croissants high, add edible flowers to pancakes (yes, really), and pour OJ in a wine glass like it’s Dom. A little drama never hurt the brunch scene.
5. Candles at Brunch? Why not
Soft flicker, big mood. Pop in a couple of pretty candleholders and boom—your table is glowing like mum after her second mimosa.
The final goal? Make her feel spoiled. And maybe make her tear up, just a little.
