Hello and welcome to Thinking Out Loud Thursday! This is a time when I share something on my mind and invite you to link up and do the same. Today I'm reflecting on a Bridgerton themed brunch I hosted a couple weeks ago!
There’s something so delightful about bringing a touch of elegance and whimsy to an ordinary day, and that’s exactly what inspired me to host a Bridgerton-themed brunch. With soft florals, delicate china, and just a hint Bridgerton charm, it felt like stepping into a scene from our favorite show. It was the perfect excuse to gather friends, sip something lovely, and enjoy a morning filled with good conversation and a little bit of magic.
I kept the menu simple—chicken salad on croissants, cucumber canapés, pimento cheese tartlets, fruit salad, and charcuterie cups. After all, it’s less about the food and more about enjoying time together with friends!
We had mimosas with orange juice balls dipped in pink glitter. If you haven't done that before, let this serve as your reminder to do it! Just pour orange juice in the round ice cube trays and freeze. Remove the frozen balls and roll in edible glitter. Pop a couple in your glass! Easy peasy!
For dessert, I kept things easy by filling Athens Phyllo Shells with lemon curd, chocolate, and cheesecake for a trio of tartlets. You can find the shells in the freezer section at the grocery store. Guests could finish them off with a sprinkle of their favorite Bridgerton sugar on top! I also used these sugars at a Galentine's breakfast I had on Valentine's Day with waffles. Huge hit!
For a little favor, there was a Bridgerton Nivea lip balm on each plate. I was so excited to find these! They were the perfect thing to send home with everyone and come in several different flavors.
After brunch, we settled in together to watch an episode of Bridgerton, which felt like the perfect way to keep the theme going. With full bellies and happy hearts, it was so fun to relax, sip a little more mimosa, and get swept up in the romance and drama of the show.
We also had so much fun playing a few Bridgerton-themed games, which brought plenty of laughter and a little friendly competition to the afternoon.
It was such a joy getting to spend a Saturday afternoon with friends, making memories and enjoying every moment together!
