Top 3 tips to throw a brunch-themed Parisian party
Date Created: 03/19/2012
Spring is on the horizon, and the new season will give you plenty of new party themes and outdoor ideas than you'll know what to do with. If you're a big fan of French culture, you know how they are committed to enjoying a good meal and putting serious stock into their gatherings, so why not use this as an inspiration for a springtime brunch. A Parisian party translates very easily to this layout and it can be a wonderful way to spend a picturesque spring morning with your friends and family. Keep the following ideas in mind to help your French-themed gathering go off without a hitch.
1. Party decorations. Just because this is a French celebration, that doesn't mean you have to break out the cliché Eiffel Tower statues and berets. Instead, keep things simple by opting for a seasonal palette using fresh-cut flowers, elegant vases and other pieces of spring décor. You can then fill in the gaps with mylar balloons, party curtains, and curling ribbon that can adorn your serving table, entrances and anywhere else that needs a pop of color.
2. The menu. There are a wealth of French recipes you can work with, but one of the easiest ways to plan out your menu is to create a series of American dishes with a French twist. For instance, put out a few French staples like croissants, quiches and breakfast souffles, but you can also revamp a few of your friends' favorites. For instance, whip up some stuffed French toast with oranges and light cream cheese or try your hand at Eggs Benedict with a bit of tomato in between the ham and Hollandaise sauce. Your guests will appreciate the extra effort and they'll love tasting a few reinvented breakfast staples.
3. Party favors. Before your friends leave, be sure to give them a few gifts to thank them for coming to your gathering. Cookie tin favors, mint tin favors and a few French chocolates are fabulous additions that will provide a wonderful touch to a fun and engaging spring morning.
Spring is almost here and it's time to show off your party planning prowess in a new season. With these beautiful Parisian party supplies, a delectable menu and a beautiful spring day at your disposal, your home may become the preferred gathering spot year-round!
