Treat Her to Brunch
Exude appreciation by treating your mom to a deluxe Mother’s Day brunch! There will be brunch held at several restaurants in and around Branson, with many of them being buffet style.

All of these eateries receive high praise for the quality and variety of their brunch selections, so they are sure to please your mom and the rest of the family. Due to extremely high demand, brunch reservations at these restaurants are either required or strongly recommended, so call ahead to save your group a spot!
Unwind at the Spa
Being a mom is one of the most rewarding experiences that a woman can have, but it’s no secret that it’s hard work! Plan a little R&R for your mom with a facial and a massage, a manicure and pedicure, or a specialized skincare service like a dermaplane or a wax. The Shoppes at Branson Meadows is where you’ll find the beautiful and calming Birch & Willow Spa. In honor of the holiday, Birch & Willow is offering exclusive deals on combined services provided by their skilled team of licensed estheticians and cosmetic professionals.
See a Feel-Good Live Show
Music-loving mothers will be delighted to see a Branson show and sing along to their favorite tunes on Mother’s Day. Branson has tons of award-winning shows that feature the most popular music from the past several decades, meaning that all musical tastes are accommodated. For the moms out there who are major fans of Elvis Presley, check out Elvis: Story of a King this Sunday, May 14 (Mother’s Day) at 2pm, hosted at the Americana Theatre on 76 Country Boulevard. Or, you and your mom can start the celebrations early and get tickets for Back to the Bee Gees, hosted at Hamners’ Variety Theater on Shepherd of the Hills Expressway this Friday, May 12 at 5pm.
Shower Her with Flowers
A classic way to show your mom some love this Mother’s Day is through a thoughtfully arranged floral bouquet! If you want to go traditional, the flower that is associated with maternal love is a carnation. Red carnations symbolize sincere love, affection, and admiration, while pink carnations symbolize a mother’s pure and unconditional love. Maybe your mom has a particular penchant for tulips or orchids, which are both currently in season. Branson has a great selection of flower shops such as Branson Petal Pushers, Lilly’s Floral, and Michele’s Floral and Gifts.
