A Paris birthday celebration.

Lets enjoy a Paris birthday celebration for a fun, stylish and elegant afternoon with a romantic gourmet picnic from ” Love Picnic Paris”. Martin surprised his wife with a week end visit to Paris to celebrate her birthday. We set up our “Amelie Poulain” picnic for them at the gardens of the Trocadero. Our photographer took some gorgeous lifestyle photos of the two of them when they arrived at the picnic. It was the perfect surprise for our birthday girl.

We laid out a traditional picnic blanket with our gorgeous wicker baskets on the grass. They enjoyed a bottle of chilled rosé wine with a selection of French cheeses, a selection of cold meats, a market salad, a vegetable quiche, seasonal fruits and a chocolate cake! Photos were a lot of fun. Olivier took them around the Eiffel tower after their picnic for some more photos. They had a full hour with our photographer.

Versailles is the most enchanted destination, only a short drive away from Paris. We love setting up our gourmet picnics under one of those historical tree. You can visit the castle in the morning then walk down to the canal to restore yourself with families, friends and loved ones.

To do in Paris – Lets enjoy a Gourmet picnic at the park.

To do in Paris – Lets enjoy a Gourmet picnic at the park with ” Love Picnic Paris”. Our couple decided on having a professional couple photo session with our photographer as well. Not sure about you but i am not into selfies. I think it is a wonderful idea to have a professional photo session planned while visiting Paris. It is so rare to have gorgeous photos with your loved ones that you want to print and frame on your wall. Some photos deserve more then just a 24hours story on instagram!

Our photographer had one hour with our couple before they enjoyed their picnic at the park. The session is a lot of fun to do! They both look very happy together. A selection of over 80 photos were edited, retouched and sent out by our photographer the next day via wetransfer.

It is easy to download the high resolution files. You can also send the link to family members back home for the next 7 days. The final result is gorgeous, fun, lively and elegant. Love those photos of our clients!

“Love Picnic Paris” for a romantic afternoon.

Our traditional French style gourmet picnics can be set up at various parks in Paris. We are also somehow flexible with timing for the setting up. The details of your order can be fine tuned directly via email so that we keep track of things.

Our clients moved the date of their picnic once to fit in between activities. It unfortunately rained quite heavily on the day of their picnic. We decided to move the picnic time to the next morning. They were staying at a hotel on the champ Elysées. Because of 8th of May festivities, our French president happened to be present on the champ Elysees on that day. All the roads were blocked for a few hours! They couldn’t managed to reach out to us on time. Again, we decided to postpone the picnic later on in the evening.

And YES, bingo, it did worked beautifully finally! All that to say that we can be very flexible with time and everything else. We do our best to make sure that our clients have a great time with us.

I think it shows in the photos!

Choosing the right location for your picnic.

It does sound simple to set up a picnic around the Eiffel tower. It sometimes gets very crowded specially on week ends. The center area of the champ de mars can get specially overcrowded. The city often decides to close part of the area to let the grass grow as well. We set up in the morning to find the best spot for our clients depending on daily activities.

We decided to set up Ali and Seema’s picnic a little off the side of the main area of the champ de Mars. The spot we chose was quite peaceful, a little sheltered with trees. The light was gorgeous, shining from the tree line off the side (great for photography). We let our clients know of their picnic location roughly 1/2 hour before the beginning of their picnic via geo localization.

All that you have to do is make sure that your phone is on & connected to whatsapp!

We take care of the rest for you!

If you are curious, above another one of our gourmet picnic with our deco set up at the champ de Mars for a family of four. Many things to do in Paris while visiting the city – lets enjoy a gourmet picnic at the park.

Ordering your picnic in Paris.

Ordering your picnic in Paris is easy! Our clients ordered our Amelie Poulain gourmet picnic. Their picnic was set up at the park for them. We propose 4 different picnic style to choose from.

Our photographer realized it while Michell took the ring out of his pocket, kneeled down and proposed to his loved one. The photos ( And it is a very personal point of view ) are gorgeous. Why! Because they are not planned, not set up, organized!

They look so HAPPY together! A lot of laughters and a few tears as well … We have amazing clients and we are so glad that we are able to assist them with such an important moment in their life.
