TWELVE REASONS

FOR DOING WHAT WE DO

1.

 

WE ADORE PICNICS

 

Combining the elegance of historical picnics with modern day luxuries is at the heart of all we do.  Sharing a basket stocked with champagne, rustic bread and artisian cheeses, set in a stunning location is our favourite way to spend a day.

2.

 

WE LOVE DINING OUTDOORS

 

When people dine, laugh, and experience nature together, magic happens. That’s why our outdoor gatherings – ranging from romantic sunset anniversaries to luxury ladies luncheons – are designed to get real, heartfelt conversations started.

3.

 

WE THANK THE FRENCH

 

For Champagne and picnics. The perfect combination. Following the French Revolution the idea of a “pique un niche”, meaning to “pick a place” encouraged friends and family to enjoy alfresco meals together away from the distractions and demands of a communal life. We’ve combined the elegance and glamour of French high society with stunning landscapes, to create sumptuous outdoor soirées.

WE SELL EXPERIENCES

 

We’re proud to create some of the best outdoor dining experiences in Australia.  Paying attention to all the little things means you’re free to focus on the big things.

5.

 

WE SPOIL OUR GUESTS

 

Your celebration is the reason we exist. You inspire us to create meaningful experiences that bring joy and happiness to your life. We’re obsessed with all the little things that make you feel valued, respected and appreciated.

6.

WE VALUE HEALTHY LIVING

Whether it’s collecting shells, walking barefoot along the beach or lingering over a succulent salad, living outdoors replenishes your mind and body. We believe the more you disconnect from the hectic pace of technology, the more you reconnect your internal operating system and reboot your energy.

 

 

7.

 

WE CARE ABOUT THE ORIGIN OF FOOD

 

All our food is local and seasonal. There’s NEVER any discounted bulk buying. We’ve clocked up many kilometres in the journey to hand-pick every supplier and producer. Which means you don’t have to drive all over the countryside looking for the perfect soft cheese. We’ve found it for you.

8.

WE DON'T SUIT EVERYONE

Sometimes the weather’s unpredictable, a preferred date is unavailable or ants visit. Yet despite unexpected influences, we remain optimistic, upbeat and positive. So anyone anxious about controlling the uncontrollable may find us frustrating.

WE LOVE OUR GUESTS

9.

WE ACKNOWLEDGE

We acknowledge the Bundjalung Nation who are the Traditional Custodians of the Land on which our picnics take place. We also pay our respects to the Elders, past and present.

10.

WE APPRECIATE BEAUTIFUL THINGS

Investing in cherished artefacts is one of the many treats along the path of self-expression​.  And we love sharing these beautiful pieces with our picnic guests.  We believe that valuing a handful of beloved treasures complements an eloquent life.

Gluttony is out.  Grace is in.

11.

WE HAVE BIG DREAMS

They’re dreams for you – such as spending more time outdoors connecting with those you love. They’re dreams for our planet – reducing our heavy footprint by eliminating plastic and embracing biodegradable alternatives. And dreams for us – creating a company that supports the growth of local businesses and focus on social responsibility.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO MONDAYS

 

BECAUSE WE LOVE WHAT WE DO.

 

Every Monday Picnic HQ meet in a park or cafe to discuss new events, hamper ingredients, creative ways to have more fun and weekend Champagne consumption.  Outdoor meetings boost health and stimulate new ideas…like how to surprise someone who thinks they’re surprising someone else. We love that stuff.
