Summer weekends are a great reason to organize a picnic in the fresh air! How to make it beautiful and elegant? My tips will help you please your guests and remember the picnic for a long time . Yes, and most importantly, enjoy great memories and beautiful photos!

1. Defining the date.
We study the weather forecast and choose the warmest and sunniest day. A perfect picnic can’t take place in the rain. If you do not believe in forecasts, it is better to buy several raincoats or stylish umbrellas at once.
We agree on the date with our friends. Was it confirmed? Then continue.

2. we are Looking for a cozy green place with a beautiful view.
You can go to the lake, walk to a picturesque clearing in the forest, or go to the nearest Park. The main thing is to do this in advance, so that on the day of the picnic you do not have to walk for hours in search of a location.

3. Now planning a picnic menu.
It is best to prepare several different snacks and take more fruit. It is desirable that the products are not perishable, otherwise you will have to take a refrigerator bag.
Grab a crunchy baguette, cheeses, fruits, berries. Wash and dry vegetables and fruits in advance. Everything will be delicious, bright and simple. You can brew herbal tea, grog or mulled wine in a thermos and take macaroons or croissants for dessert. And if the day is hot, then home-made lemonade or cool new wine is suitable as a drink.

4. Now let’s decide what will be our table. We’ll need two tablecloths. The first is an ordinary film that we lay on the ground. The second — a beautiful cloth tablecloth or a thin blanket, put on top of the film. It is the tablecloth that will set the tone for the entire picnic.
It is best that the “table” is slightly higher than the seat. Therefore, you can use the tools at hand and cover with a tablecloth, for example, a picnic bag (if there is one) or take care of a folding table.

There is a table, but what will be the chairs? Soft pillows! Ask each guest to take a small pillow so that there are no problems with Seating at the picnic.
An option for those who like comfort — folding picnic furniture. The table and four stools fold up to the size of a briefcase, they can easily fit even in the trunk of a small car.

5. What kind of dishes should I take — regular or disposable? Let’s do without white plastic plates and cups and be original. Even if the dishes are disposable, then let it be a beautiful paper picnic set. But I insist on bringing the usual dishes — at least wine glasses and a few large plates for fruit and sandwiches.

The tablecloth, tableware, and accessories must be chosen in the same style and match each other in colors. Aesthetic pleasure is important at a picnic no less than the joy of communication and delicious food.

6. What will make your picnic really cozy and festive? Original serving details. Use simple wooden planks to do this: spread bread, meat and cheese slices, cookies, and fruit on them.
And, of course, we can not do without a beautiful wicker basket, which is associated with the perfect picnic. You can not only put a lot of Goodies in it, but also make it the center of the table. In addition, you will need cute napkins and a cute vase in which we will put fresh flowers.

The wind does not always please guests at a picnic, especially if napkins and dishes are ready to fly away in an unknown direction. “Calm down” flying objects will help the jewelry. Bring a wide napkin bracelet with you. And if nothing suitable in the jewelry box was not found, you can use regular bagels.

7. And the most important point – style picnic and images of the guests.
Everything that happens should be in the same style: tablecloth, dishes, snacks, decorative elements and images. As strange as it sounds.
Very colorful and easy to organize picnics in the sea style, in Italian style, on a floral theme. There is no limit to your imagination. The most important thing is to think through all the details and enjoy your vacation!
I offer you a photo for inspiration!

8. don’t forget to charge your camera! I wish you beautiful frames!
