Mother's Day  Back to Events

Start Mom's day off right with a stylish brunch that reflects the cheery day. It's all about the presentation—have kids make decorations that Mom will treasure as keepsakes for years to come. Continue the celebration with family-friendly activities.

Create an elegant setting by topping the table with a vibrant cloth. Add stylish table runners in contrasting hues. Make the day more special by serving beverages in wine glasses. Ask the kids to make several strings of colored beads and wind them around the glass stems before the party.

Let your neighborhood Publix take care of all the food so you can pamper Mom on her special day and so no one in the family needs to bother with cooking.

Have older kids embellish plain flower vases with glass paints in springy colors to display fresh floral bouquets from your neighborhood Publix. The painted vases double as gifts for Mom, or you can try one of these other handmade Mother's Day gift ideas.

Spend the rest of the day together with family activities to celebrate Mom.

Menu Made Easy 

Here's where we've figured out courses and servings for the party. Scroll down to see the Publix selections we suggest, then add appropriate sizes and/or quantities to your Planning List based on the estimated servings per course (see chart). If you're interested in other options, you may click View All to see everything else available by course. Or, you can use our Plan a Menu tool to build your own menu for the event.

The recommended servings are meant as a guide and not an exact calculator. Please consider that many factors may require you to make adjustments: the mix of adults and children, time of day, length of event, etc.
