How to Host the Perfect Easter Brunch

The Easter Bunny is just around the corner, carrying a basket full of goodies and chocolate eggs, just waiting to usher in the start of the Easter Season. Easter has always been about new beginnings and a celebration of life, making it the perfect time to get together with distant family members and old friends.

Meeting up at various Restaurants and Cafes around the city may be a good option for a couple of laughs and a quick meal, but why not host your own party? An Easter Brunch at home is the best way to make new lasting memories with those near and dear to your heart, as it allows everyone to feel more relaxed and at ease.

In this edition of the Archives, we aim to highlight pieces from our impressive collection to show you How to Host the Perfect Easter Brunch.

Comfortable Seating

Before putting up colourful decorations, hiding your easter eggs and more foreshadowing, your home should have a comfortable atmosphere for family and future guests. Increasing everyone's comfort level leads to a more relaxed atmosphere, wherein everyone can be carefree and enjoy time with one another. The first and most important thing in fostering a comfortable atmosphere is to have enough seats for everyone. No one ever wants to be left standing by the wall or sitting on the floor while other guests get to sit down comfortably. Now you could have a dozen or so foldable chairs arranged neatly for everyone, or you could take the Koala Living route of using world-class Fabric Sofas and Occasional Chairs to make everyone feel comfortable.

Our Riviera III Modular Sofa is one of the many pieces from our gorgeous collection that's absolutely perfect for hosting events like an Easter Brunch. Its outstanding design made up of a collection of chairs, chaise’s and ottomans makes it an all-in-one package of comfort wrapped in modish white fabric. It can comfortably sit from five to six people at a time, which can lead to more relaxed moments and conversations for everyone. The Riviera's enchanting white colour perfectly ties in with the Easter Season's theme of purity and new beginnings.

Choosing The Right Table

When it comes to the perfect Easter Brunch, it's best to plan your menu and tailor it according to your guests and family members, as some may have dietary preferences and restrictions. One can never go wrong with having delectable Ham and Lamb as your main course dishes. A variety of Eggs and Bread recipes can also serve as great appetizers for your celebration. We should skip desserts for now, as we'll cover them later.

Your dining room furniture plays a big role in making the perfect Easter Brunch. A table too small or too wide can mess with the festive aesthetics, but luckily Koala Living has a wide selection of Dining Tables that'll put the feast in Easter.

Decorating your Dining Room with the colours of nature can help capture the festive Easter ambience. An excellent choice would be The Ascot II Medium Brown Mango Wood Dining Table. It glows with a natural brown hue that looks splendid when paired with the Wilderness Paining. The Ascott can also comfortably accommodate 8-10 people at a time, giving enough room for all your guests.

Add a more modern and chic look to your Perfect Easter Brunch with our Greta White Wooden Dining Table and its all white-aesthetic. The Lillian Natural White Marble Dining Table is also an excellent choice as it features a luxurious marble table top that looks great when paired with vibrant cutlery and decorations.

Sweet Decor

Now that everyone is full of all the Ham and Lamb, it's now time to talk about everyone's favourite part. Desserts. 

From beautiful layered cakes to creative cupcakes to the ever-present chocolate Easter Eggs, everyone has a favourite when it comes to Easter-themed desserts. You can never go wrong with the aforementioned choices, but your Perfect Easter Brunch could use stand-out selections from our Decorative Trays and Bowls to take your festive style a notch higher.

The Chantal Antique Gold Bowl Decorative is a great way to present your offering of sweets to your guests and family members. This exciting piece pairs nicely with The Tobin Gilded Dark Bronze Deep Bowl Decorative. If you need more space for cakes, then the Everleigh Antique Gold 2-Tier Cake Stand and its wider surfaces are an excellent choice. Another great idea would be to display your colourful Easter Eggs on the stunning Botanical Tiered Cake Stand.

Easter Lights

Having celebrations over Brunch is a great way to save daylight. In most cases, however, time can actually fly when everyone is having fun, and before you know it, the sun has set on your Perfect Easter Brunch.

Setting up pendant lights around the home in advance helps to create the right mood, while using table lamps near food stations and floor lamps near points of interest is a great way to stay illuminated while also creating an atmosphere. But why not add a little more panache to your Perfect Easter Brunch Lighting with the help of Koala Living's luxurious lighting options?

The Tristan Gilded Dark Bronze Metal 3-Light Chandelier is a great way to set the mood, while the Camryn Satin Brass Table Lamp and Alpha Antique Gold Table Lamp are luxurious pieces that illuminate the event's desks and tables while serving as great conversation starters for friends.
