Whether you observe it with a small family gathering or a giant community celebration, Easter Sunday is a special date for most families. If you feel a bit moved by the occasion, then consider posting these Easter Instagram captions along with photos of your family in their Sunday best. These sweet quotes and sentiments reflect the holiday itself, as well as the emergence of springtime weather.

These captions are all lovely standalone posts for your favorite social media. Seriously, I love the idea of combatting the negativity so often found on the internet with hopelessly optimistic musings about spring and hope and renewal. It's so rebelliously wholesome.

Sometimes a little dose of positivity is all you need to remember what's so lovely about the season. Read on to see how other people have captured the idea of Easter Sunday, and see whether these sentiments will work for your social media.
