    Your Go-To Guide for Spring Celebrations

    The birds are chirping, the buds are blooming and the weather is warming up – spring is here!

    There’s no better way to mark the change in seasons than with a calendar full of fun events and joyful get togethers. Whether you partake in Ramadan, Passover, Easter, or simply the joy of spring itself, there is no shortage of reasons to celebrate.

    Master the spring brunch spread

    Spring beckons with bright flavours and delicious seasonal dishes. No matter your culinary skill level, these simple tricks take the stress out of hosting a successful spring brunch.

     

     

    For the top chef

    If you’re a whiz in the kitchen, don your apron and put your culinary prowess to the test with complex dishes like homemade eggs benedict (and a perfectly silky hollandaise) or a show stopping savoury cheese souffle. If pastry is where you shine, hot cross buns are a classic choice, while marshmallowy pavlova makes a stunning statement.

    For the kitchen novice

    Plan a meal around items you can easily assemble – charcuterie boards are an ideal example. Same goes for dessert. Why not pick up pastries from your favourite bakery?  Or leave the responsibilities of cooking a delicious spread to one of our restaurants.

    Make your event extra special by focusing your efforts on the tablescape. Layering flowers, candles and intricately embellished eggs (displayed in egg cups, of course) are easy ways to add drama.

    How to Host a Successful Seder

    To celebrate a beautiful tradition of welcoming family and friends around the dining table, we recommend the planning process to start with a colour or theme to help inspire you in choosing your table design and tablescape.

    A Celebratory Tablescape

    Create a beautiful tablescape with your favourite flatware, intricate Seder plates and seasonal flowers as centre pieces to help accentuate the colours. Bring out the unique wine glasses to impress your friends and family.

    Find your perfect easter outfit

    Dress to impress at your Easter event with on-trend hues, sweet blooms and sunshine-ready styles.

    Modern pastel perfection

    Perfectly timed for Easter, light-as-air shades of pink, yellow, lilac and green found their way onto the spring runways (it’s no coincidence that Very Peri, a soft periwinkle blue, was also named Pantone’s 2022 colour of the year). Keep the saccharine level dialed back by sticking to pastel pieces brimming with structure like blazers, wide-leg pants, jumpsuits and clean-lined dresses.

    Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking

    It’s hard not to fall for beautiful blooms each spring. The joyfulness they bring is infectious, so why not wear them! Go for full-on feminine in a flounced dress with a micro floral print or lean on accessories like a petal-printed pump, mini bag or stud earring to show off your best buds.
