Tips To Help Plan a Mother’s Day Luncheon and Food Ideas

#1 – First, set the mood.

Make sure the table is set nicely, and there are flowers on the table. Create a table that your family will reminisce about for years to come.

We shared 6 Creative Table Ideas for a Mother’s Day Luncheon on Thursday. These table ideas are sure to inspire you.

# 2 – Start planning early.

This will give you ample time to shop for ingredients and cook meals.

However, you don’t have to do all the work yourself.

Just like our Supper Club Meals, enlist the help of family and friends.

If you have a big family, why not have everyone pitch in and make a dish? This will take the pressure off of you and make it more fun for everyone.

# 3 – Most importantly, relax and have fun.

Mother’s Day is a day to celebrate Mom, so make sure she has a day she’ll never forget.

So the tables are set and now it’s time to plan the meal.

Supper Club Mother’s Day Theme

Our Supper Club series plans a full menu and recipes for a virtual gathering each month. I am sharing our Supper Club Menu and Recipes, as well as some additional recipes that are perfect for Mother’s Day.

If you are joining us for the first time, we are a group of friends who love to entertain, and when entertaining in person wasn’t recommended, we started a virtual supper club in January 2021.

We are from different areas of the country, and it’s always fun to see each person’s interpretation of the monthly theme. Meet the Supper Club Hosts.
