Picnic Date Ideas: Simple, Romantic and Easy to Plan
Picnic date ideas with themes, food shortcuts and practical planning tips.
Keep the menu simple
Choose foods that travel well and need little assembly: fruit, sandwiches, pastries, cheese, crackers, cold drinks and one favorite dessert.
Pick a theme
Breakfast picnic, sunset snacks, one-color foods, foods from a future travel destination, or a bakery crawl that ends in a park can make the plan feel distinctive.
Pack for the actual place
Bring water, something to sit on, napkins, sun or rain protection and a bag for rubbish. Check local rules before bringing glass, alcohol or equipment.
