Chris and I hosted the Easter dinner with an extended family for some time. In the past 15+ years, we picked up a few tips and tricks to make it fun, a small stressful event. We usually move into church in the morning, we do children’s activity like a Hunt for Easter Egg, then has a family. It is basically a routine at this time!
We had a lot of practice, but that wasn’t always like that. Over time, I picked up some tricks of trade. If you start a new tradition from zero, I want to help ask you for success – which looks like you enjoy the time of low emphasis with people who care.
You really don’t have to go to the tables and plan a menu with 6 items. These things are great if you bring you joy, but sometimes it’s just about the beginning of small. Maybe just host your immediate family. Or you have neighbors. These are my tips to look like you are a professional, even if your first time hosting is Easter:
1. Make it a Potluka

Don’t just do it for you – do it for them. The people you call woman to bring something. They also want Easter and Activity during the day – something to complete the time between the exchange of Easter baskets and is displayed for the holiday dinner.
Ask someone to bring the eggs. Tell your sister, who likes to roast, to look forward to her carrot cake. And speaking of dinner …
2 Make lunch

Or lunch. Or an early dinner. Believe me – everyone will get dressed in their spring pastels and feel so living early in the day. This is one of these holiday meals that you can have early in the day. I love the idea of fresh fruit coasters or lemonade lavender to go in my season.
You can get small bite from the bakery and fertile plate, and then return to Step 1 and ask others to bring a small dish to share. Everyone has a favorite dish for breakfast or picnic salad to be shared!
3. Set it up and forget
My no. 1 Hosting Tip Any rest meal is to choose the main right. Easter ham is a classic for a reason. Growing up, my grandmother served lasagna on the risen week. She wasn’t a doll. The bottom line is that you do not want a lot of preparation across the entire kitchen counters when your guests arrive. You are rests for a clean kitchen and spend your time to set the table instead.
Other ideas for meals in advance: Hash breakfast with maple chicken sausage, Rotisserie-smoked leg lamband 8-syllable salad.
4. Change one thing on your desk setting
Pinterest is just flooded with pictures of fairly Easter tables settings, and if you make your heart sing – I say, go for it. But if you want to be easy, just turn off salad. Seriously. You can have the same classic device for each holiday and if you replaced the salad, each table you set would look seasoned and fresh and fresh.
I love cabbage, blue blue and white samples, and rattan elements (find my courier collection Here is Easter decor). If you change two things, replace someone Spring stems. If you change three things, get them Pastel cone candle.
5. Have an activity at the table
After a great delicious holiday meal, sometimes we don’t even want to leave the table. Easter hunt for egg or craft may look a lot. Instead, clean the plates (and leave them in the sink) and pass the deer. You can start with a circle Easter Bingo (Using Jellibeans as your markers) while children are still at the table.
Once the young springs, go ahead and get away with playing cards. You can only play about any card game, using Jelly beans for chips. If you feel weird in adding iron beans, he touched the communal “pot”, just ahead and eat the beans that lose your loss 🙂
