29 Easter Instagram Caption Ideas That Aren’t Totally Cliché

by Alli Hoff Kosik

Of all the holidays out there, there's something particularly social media-friendly about Easter. Between the adorable baby animals, the pastel fake grass, the hand-painted eggs, and all that delicious candy, it's pretty much a dream for Instagram feeds. The visual possibilities are endless if you're hoping to celebrate the season with a well-timed post, and if you're struggling to come up with a caption to match all this cuteness, I've got your back. Like little plastic eggs filled with jellybeans and plucked from the lawn, I've collected unique easter 2018 Instagram captions. Now all you have to do is snap a pic to go with one of them!

Let me just say — the internet is not hopping (pun intended!) with genuinely hilarious Easter-related jokes or Easter quotes of the non-religious variety, so the pickings were kind of slim. But there's something charming about a cheesy bunny joke or thoughtful meditation on springtime, and I think they'll work just fine on the 'gram. This is, after all, a celebration in which people wear fake rabbit ears and eat generic jellybeans, arguably the hokiest of all mainstream candy, so I think some cheesy jokes about chocolate bunnies are just the thing. Hoppy posting!
