If you are celebrating Mother’s Day in the Atlanta area you may consider treating mom to brunch at Dunwoody’s Villa Christina. The immaculately manicured gardens are the perfect place to enjoy a Mother’s Day feast. Villa Christina features a stone Italian villa, a stone terrace, rose gardens, streams and waterfalls. Your mom can dine amidst the natural beauty on delicacies including market-fresh seafood, carved-to-order prime rib, and a host of homemade desserts. What’s more, you can tack on a special gift for the woman who made you the center of her life with the Villa’s special Mother’s Day photo package—this Mother’s Day the Villa is teaming up with a local photographer to offer family portraits taken on-site for less than the cost of the meal (a $300 value for just $40). Brunch costs $45 per person.
If you plan to stick closer to home this Mother’s Day, I would suggest checking out your city’s most popular family-friendly attractions. For example, most zoos, botanical gardens, and aquariums provide free admission to moms on Mother’s Day.
