No we do not. We leave after the party arrives and return once the picnic reservation ends. Pique-Nique representatives are available by text or call if you need us for any reason during your picnic. Concierge numbers will be provided in your confirmation email.

Yes, but please notify Pique-Nique if you would like to leave earlier than the arranged time. You are responsible for the picnic items until a Pique-Nique representative arrives to pack them up.

The Choice is yours! Let us know what location you prefer and we will do our best to accommodate your location request. Please note that there may be an extra fee depending on how difficult it is to get to the location, distance to the location, or any parking fees. We prefer locations be within 50 yards from vehicle access, and may not be able to accommodate the request if we are not able to get our equipment to the requested area.

Only if you would like them to have their own seat and setting/food. If you prefer them to have their own food and want them to have their own comfortable place to sit, then please include them in the guest count. If you don’t require this option, then it’s okay to leave them out. If you have questions, please feel free to contact us. (javascript:void(0))

If it looks like bad weather may affect your reservation, we will contact you in advance of your picnic to discuss your options. There is no cancellation charge for rescheduling your picnic due to bad weather.

If you select a Pique-Nique preferred location and package, you will not need a permit. If you have a special place in mind, outside of your home, we will let you know if any special permitting is required and help you through that process.

We will offer a full refund if you cancel 2 weeks prior to an event taking place. Within the two week time frame, we can change your reservation with a minimum of a 72 hour notice. After that, there is a 50% rescheduling fee to move your reservation. If you book a picnic, and do not show up, Dine by Design with Pique-Nique reserves the right to retain the entire amount paid at checkout. See our TERMS & CONDITIONS (javascript:void(0))for more rescheduling information.

No problem at all, but your guest may not have a place to sit or enough food or refreshments for your picnic. We always recommend booking your picnic to accommodate all expected guests, but totally get that friends might drop in.

We are happy to clean up after you, that’s part of our service, but if there is irreparable damage to our equipment, the contact for the picnic will be notified and the credit card on file will be charged.

We require a 72-hour notice to get your picnic prepared and appreciate as much notice as possible. Custom picnics may need up to 5 days to prepare for, depending on the extent of the custimization.

Please reach out to Dine by Design with Pique-Nique before bringing any alcohol as each city location may have different rules/regulations. Most locations allow you to drink full strength beer, spritzers, and wine, but not hard alcohol. That said, it is always important to follow the rules of the park or location you have chosen and to be responsible and respectful.

Unfortunately, due to restrictions we cannot sell alcohol to you. You are more than welcome to bring your own beer or wine (liquor is prohibited by law) or ask us about our partnerships with local breweries and wineries. Check out our juice bar add-on to make your own mimosas!
