Picnik Society will arrive at your location 1 - 1.5 hours prior to the start of your event to begin arranging your picnicscape.  A text notification will be sent when the set up is complete (15 minutes before start time). When you arrive we will disappear leaving you to enjoy your picnic experience.  A text notification will be sent 15 minutes before your scheduled end time.  We will return at the scheduled end time to clean up. If you need to leave early you must provide us with a 30 minute notice and remain with the picnic set up until we arrive.

Life happens. If you need to reschedule your picnic you must notify Picnik Society at least 72 hours (3 days) before your scheduled picnic to select a new date or to receive a credit. Your credit must be used within 6 months of your original purchase date. Picnic appointments are subject to availability so don't delay in rebooking.  

Your picnic will start at the time listed in your confirmed reservation and includes a 30 minute grace period. If you do not show or call before the grace period expires we will begin the clean up process.  Unfortunately, no refunds or adjustments in time or price can be made if you arrive late or leave early.  If you need to leave your picnic early you must provide us with a 30 minute notice and remain with the picnic set up until we arrive.

You can add unique elements to your picnic by selecting "other options" from the services page or you can contact us to inquire about small requests. 

Backyards can be the perfect place for our picnics.  It gives you lots of privacy and freedom to celebrate the way you want to. We also love living rooms, decks, balconies, front yards, patios and porches. Ultimately it's up to you. However, when choosing a location there are a few things you must consider:

- Is the ground flat, level and dry?

- Is there a restroom facility near by?

- Will you need ADA accessibility?

- Is your preferred location close to accessible parking for unloading and loading?
- Does your preferred location allow picnics or require a permit?

(Please contact your local parks and recreation department to inquire about park rules/regulations/permit fees.)

Our service hours change with the seasons.  We are currently offering picnics between 6pm & 9pm on Fri and between 11am - 9pm Sat - Sun.  Latest picnic end time is 8pm for outdoor picnics in a well lit area with temps above 60°.  Sunset picnics are very popular in the summer, spring and early fall so please book early.
