Easter Bunny Hopping To Bridgewater Commons On 1st Day Of Spring

BRIDGEWATER, NJ — The Easter Bunny will be hopping to the Bridgewater Commons on the first day of Spring. Photo reservations are now available.

On Saturday, March 20 at 11:15 a.m., Girl Scouts will join the Easter Bunny down the Bridgewater Commons' escalator with song. A ribbon-cutting ceremony at the photo set will then take place to usher in the season.

The mall has purchased 200 boxes of Girl Scout cookies in which Troop #61187 will deliver to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Somerset in Somerville.

The photo set will be located in Center Court on the Lower Level and will feature an all-new bunny sitting in her colorful springtime flower field. Guests will sit on a decorative bench placed six feet in front of the bunny.

Those visiting Easter Bunny Celebration will be required to wear face coverings during their entire visit to the experience to help maintain appropriate COVID-19 safety measures and social-distancing procedures.

"Guests will not only have the opportunity to meet the cute and cuddly rabbit, but should anticipate a high-quality studio photo moment complete with integrated professional cameras and lighting," according to the Bridgewater Commons.

Full-size digital images are delivered to customers' mobile phones with the added opportunity to print pictures on-site.

"Bridgewater Commons’ Easter Bunny Celebration guests can expect a seamless experience from start to finish," said Bridgewater Commons Marketing Director Tom Kovacic. "Our highly-trained photo set cast members love to have lots of fun and will be helping each visitor get the most out of their experience."

The Easter Bunny will be at the mall from Saturday, March 20 through Saturday, April 3. Reservations are required and can be made online at bridgewatercommons.com.
