Uniquely designed for both organization and collaboration, The Scuttle can handle anything from large elaborate banquets to small, intimate gatherings of family or friends.
If you’re in need of some event planning inspiration, check out how you can use a personalized daily to-do list app to help better plan your weekly brunches!
Picking a Menu
Planning a successful brunch is no easy feat. There are many things to consider and a multitude of small details to keep track of. The most important element by far is the menu.
A great menu can turn a regular brunch into a raging success that’s talked about for weeks to come. Likewise, a bad menu is just as powerful, leaving its mark on your guests and a bad memory that hovers like a dark cloud over future brunches. If you want to keep your menu fresh and unexpected, then you need to always be looking for new recipes and ideas.
One of the many features that make The Scuttle the best event planning app for friends is its shareability. Create a Scuttleboard on your to-do list app to keep track of all your menu ideas in one place and then share it with your friends to make planning future brunch menus a breeze!

Now that you have the menu sorted out, it’s time to pick a date. The bigger your brunch group is, the more difficult it will be to find a day that works for everyone.
