Life can get very busy for all of us. If you’ve ever tried planning a date or a group meet up with some friends, it can be difficult to organize and get everyone to commit. This is why organizing a birthday brunch is perfect – they happen late morning and can be as long or as short as you wish it to be. Read on to uncover how to host a birthday brunch with busy friends.
Pick a day
The obvious choice would be to choose your birthday, but if your birthday is a weekday, it will be difficult to get the friends you want to be available. Brunches are usually had on weekends anyway, whether it’s the weekend before your birthday or after your birthday, that is entirely up to you – and the availability of your loved ones.
Let your friends know
So, you’ve picked a day that you’re happy with, it’s time to send out invites. Send out a group text or WhatsApp message and ask your chosen birthday brunch guests to let you know if they can make it so you have the exact numbers for when you book a restaurant.
Choose a restaurant
Remember, although you are choosing a restaurant for your birthday brunch, you still need to keep in mind that the menu has something that all of your birthday brunch guests can enjoy. Typical brunch menus include, delicious French toast, scrambled eggs and bacon, bagels, banana pancakes, crepes, cinnamon buns, roasted hash browns, and avocado toast. Some restaurants also offer bottomless brunches so guests can eat accompanied with unlimited mimosa or some Champagne – lovely!
Remember to be the host
It maybe your birthday but remember you are also the host. This means that you should look after all your birthday brunch guests, and make sure everyone is socializing and having a good time. This is especially important if you have friends from different sections of your life coming together to celebrate your birthday with you.
Capture the moment
Since getting all of your favorite people in one place isn’t easy, make your birthday moment last forever by taking some pictures, capturing the memories, and perhaps posting on social media
