We all lead such busy lives, but occasions like Easter are the perfect opportunity to get everyone together.
A weekend of great food, relaxation and quality family time – it’s a bit like Christmas but without half the expense or hassle!
So round up your loved ones and host an amazing modern Easter to remember. Here are a few ways the modern woman is upping her Easter game:
Table Decorations
For most households, a big family dinner is on the cards on Easter day.
If you really wanted to push the boat out, you could decorate the table beautifully, complete with placeholders, candles, and a beautiful centerpiece.
There are so many great ideas for pieces you could put together yourself on Pinterest, or you could buy something ready made from a shop.
One cute way you can decorate the table and which also makes a fun DIY is to beautifully paint some boiled eggs. You could go all out with things like rhinestones and intricate patterns, far fancier than the sort of thing you probably did as a child!
A Wreath
Wreaths make your front door look absolutely stunning, and they don’t have to just be for Christmas!
While you’ll have no problem finding sites selling beautiful Christmas wreaths, Worcester Wreath Company are one example, you can buy them for other occasions too.
You could opt for a floral wreath with beautiful spring flowers from a florist, or make one yourself with the help of a Youtube tutorial.
You could purchase some pastel colored paper and card and make a specifically Easter themed wreath to hang on your door over Easter weekend.
Good Food and Drink
An Easter roast dinner is pretty traditional, you could go with meat and all the trimmings.
If we’re lucky enough to get good weather, it could well be an opportunity to fire up the barbecue for the first time this year! You could pour some wine or prosecco or even create some cocktails.

Easter Egg Hunt
An Easter egg hunt is fun for kids and adults alike! Hide eggs around the house and garden, and write up some fun clues to help people find them.
You can buy inexpensive plastic eggs which you can fill with Easter chocolates or even money. Alongside this, small filled eggs like Creme Eggs and full sized easter eggs could be hidden!
Be careful with hiding treats when it comes to pets and young children, smaller chocolates can be a choking hazard and chocolate is poisonous to dogs.
Write down the amount of different treats you’ve hidden and count up of everyone’s baskets at the end to make sure everything has been found.
