Spring has sprung and it’s time for some Easter party ideas! We’ve created a very colorful and charming Easter brunch to celebrate!! Sharing all of the details below! Also, check out our charming Easter brunch, the only Easter recipes you need, and the best brunch cocktail recipes!

We wanted to create something a little different than the traditional pastels and bunny rabbits, so instead, we went with bold colors and palm leaves, inspired by a colorful Moroccan theme. This is a colorful table setting that is perfect for spring!

Easter Party Ideas for Tablesetting

Line the table with small glass vases filled with colorful flowers. You can buy colorful flowers at a grocery store or farmers’ market. If you have them growing in your yard, those work too!

Easter party ideas for flower arragements

You can also create a large Easter themed floral arragement for the table too. This bunny vase is an old one from Pottery Barn. They have beautiful stone vases that would work well for spring too.

Place copper and speckled Easter eggs down the middle. See our guide for dying and coloring Easter eggs and how to make copper eggs!

Instead of traditional seating cards, make calligraphy eggs with guests’ names! We used beautiful wooden napkin holders to place the eggs on the table. It worked perfectly!

Use colorful dinnerware and fun glasses to add more color to the table.

Easter Brunch Dessert

For desserts, we made my favorite carrot cake recipe, frosted it, and then pressed large coconut flakes onto the sides and top!

We then added some fresh flowers with two tall, lanky ones to look like bunny ears! The recipe for the carrot cake is below.

    This looks like the recipe I used years ago, only I just grated my carrots on a hand grater and did not cook them. I love pineapple in my carrot cake. Your Easter table is very pretty!
