Mother's Day the moda+co way

Mother’s Day is coming up, which means one thing: last-minute gift panic for many. But not you, this time, you’re planning ahead…

 

After years of “World’s Best Mum” mugs and supermarket flowers, let’s do Mother’s Day, the Moda+Co way - thoughtful, stylish, and full of quality time that actually means something. 

 

Whether your mum’s love language is a perfectly brewed cuppa, a beautifully set table, or simply quality time well spent, we’ve got you. Because the best plans don’t require a reservation, just a little thought (and maybe an extra cushion or two).

 

Here’s how to celebrate in style (and score major favourite-child points in the process).

 

Brunch is always a good idea

Whether she’s an avo-toast loyalist or a pancakes-and-syrup kind of woman, a beautifully set brunch makes the moment feel extra special (without the need for an overbooked restaurant).

 

Keep the menu fresh and unfussy. Think flaky pastries, colourful fruit platters, and just-frothed-enough coffee served in chic Moda+Co mugs. Set the table with elegant dinnerware, soft linen napkins, and layered textures to bring warmth to the space. And for something a little extra? A round of ‘Mom-osas’ (see what we did there!) because no good brunch is complete without a toast.

 

And for the final touch? Fresh blooms arranged in a sculptural vase, because a well-styled table is just as important as the food on it.

A toast to mum (with a perfect Brew)

Not every mum is a brunch person, if that’s your momma, skip the eggs and avocado and lean into the timeless charm of afternoon tea. 

 

Start with a selection of teas worthy of the occasion - classic Earl Grey, fresh mint, or a floral infusion that smells as good as it tastes. And since no celebration is complete without a little fizz, serve up a glass of bubbles alongside the brew, because tea and Champagne are a pairing we fully support.

 

Then, let the food do the talking, served on elegant trays and effortlessly stylish cutlery (because we both know she notices these things). Delicate finger sandwiches, warm scones with an unapologetic amount of clotted cream, and pastries that could pass for edible art.

 

Set the scene with layered textures, curated serve ware, and a table that looks as good as the spread. And if there was ever a time to dust off that teapot, the one reserved for ‘special occasions’, this is it.

 

A well-poured brew and good conversation will always outshine a crowded afternoon tea booking.

films, snacks and all the comforts

After a day well spent, there’s nothing better than settling in, switching off, and indulging in a movie night done right. Whether it’s a feel-good classic, a nostalgic rewatch, or something totally off Mum’s usual radar (but hey, she’ll love it), the key is setting the scene.

 

Start with the essentials - a curated snack spread that balances sweet, salty, and ‘just one more handful’ treats. Think popcorn served in chic bowls, crisps elegantly arranged on a statement platter, and a few homemade indulgences for good measure. Then, it’s all about the comfort factor… layer up with plush throws, sink-into-me cushions, and a setup that’s designed for ultimate lounging.

 

Let the world wait, Mother’s Day is for cosy corners, good conversation, and making time for the moments that matter.

for every kind of mum

Mother’s Day isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s for the foster mums, the step mums, the mums-to-be. The solo mums, the fur baby mums, the ones who should be mums. The grieving mums, and those who miss theirs every day. We salute you! 

 

Grand gesture or subtle nod, it’s not about what you do (though we’re here to help with that) it’s about who you’re doing it for. Because at the end of the day, Mother’s Day is what you make it, (she deserves better than last minute flowers) so make it count.
