Picnic for a wedding? Why not? The elegant serving of food outdoors, multiplied by the enjoyment of a lovely setting and pleasant weather, is a beautiful backdrop for romance in a couple. And that’s just one step to celebrating your Big Day. A luxury wedding picnic is perfect if you’re thinking of a small wedding with your closest family or friends or a mini-wedding with just the witnesses or the couple.
The picnic originated in 14th-century England when high society entertained themselves by hunting and serving games and cakes outdoors. Picnicking spread to the broader classes much later in France, where royal parks were opened for the first time after the French Revolution, popularising picnics. The picnic became so popular in America that it became International Picnic Day, held annually on June 18.
Picnic season comes with warmer weather, but with the right choice of location, it can be year-round. After all, stylish dining on the ground is also feasible on a terrace, under a roof, or by a fireplace. So, if you’re planning a wedding in the summer, a picnic is undoubtedly a good option. If you’re not planning a wedding, a picnic is a quick solution, and if the wedding comes around just before Christmas or some other less-wedding season, a picnic will save the day anytime. Practical, fast to implement, in any style, and in almost any location, the wedding picnic is the new trend in small weddings, which is also a highly photogenic type of stylish event.
If you are asking yourself this question, here is the answer: Absolutely yes, as long as you love staying in and dining casually yet stylishly in the fresh air, having a pretty romantic still life, and being in the company of your loved ones. A picnic wedding comes with many bonuses that you have to spare in a big wedding, and instead, you have to wade through other pitfalls.
Your wedding picnic can also include a wedding ceremony – whether official or symbolic on the spot. That’s how you can have a spectacular and practical 2-in-1 event. Enjoy your wedding day to the fullest and without the hassle of wedding guests. A wedding picnic will make it possible.
