A Sweet Paris Engagement on a Rainy Day!

A Sweet Paris Engagement on a Rainy day!

Sometimes it rains on the day of your engagement in Paris! This morning, it actually snowed in the city! Still, we do provide gourmet picnics all year long either in Paris or Versailles. Hot soup & hot tea and warm blankets will accomodate your winter Paris picnic.

We usually touch base with our clients the day before their picnic, after having checked on the weather forecast. We ask you to be a little flexible if possible with the timing of your picnic. This way we have room to play with the planning and set up of your engagement picnic in Paris.

We may move the starting time a little later on during the afternoon. We might even suggest to move the date to the next day if the weather doesn’t cooperate! Rare thing … Most time, in case of rain, we use one of the shelter at the champ de mars.

This is what happened with our couple who recently flew from Australia to get engaged in Paris. We set up their engagement picnic at one of the shelter at the champ de mars. A couple of good looking umbrellas, love & happiness plus a great sense of humor from our photographer did the trick!

Everyone had a wonderful time.

Paris picnic for your proposal.

” Until you’ve been kissed on a rainy Parisian afternoon – you’ve never been kissed. “

Woody Allen.

He would have loved a Paris picnic with a large umbrella on a rainy day. 😊

“Actually, Paris is the most beautiful in the rain”. That is the last line of Midnight in Paris.

Just watched “Midnight in Paris” again last night. It is a 2011 fantasy comedy film written and directed by Woody Allen. Set in Paris, the film follows Gil Pender, a screenwriter, who is forced to confront the shortcomings of his relationship with his materialistic fiancée and their divergent goals, which become increasingly exaggerated as he travels back in time each night at midnight. The movie explores themes of nostalgia and modernism.

Highly recommended. 💕❤️

A Winter Romantic Paris Engagement.

A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We have had a wonderful time with our clients at their Paris romantic winter engagement, on the last day of 2023! The champ de Mars with the Eiffel tower in the background was just the perfect setting. They both look so happy in the photos of their Paris engagement. It is always such a blessing to share our clients happiness with our Paris gourmet picnics.

As we celebrate the New Year, let’s spare a thought for those in conflict-ridden areas, especially the Palestinians & Ukraine. Their plight is not just a distant issue but a global concern that requires our attention and action.

We pray for a year that brings progress towards peace in Palestine, Ukraine and other conflict zones, fostering a world where every individual’s rights and dignity are respected.

Hoping for a transformative 2024 where global efforts towards peace and justice are strengthened. Let’s envision a future where empathy and understanding triumph over conflict and despair.

Wishing you all a New Year filled with peace, compassion, and positive change.

A unique Parisian experience.

Ian and Jay had their engagement photographed when they arrived at the champ de Mars. Following their lunch hour, our photographer took them around the Eiffel tower for the remaining 1/2 hour of photography.

Luxembourg gardens engagement

A Luxembourg gardens engagement.

There are 1001 ways to propose to your loved one, one of which being flying to Paris!

There are also 1001 ways to propose while visiting Paris. A public park, the river seine, the Eiffel tower, the terrace of a cafe, a local restaurant are among the many picturesque vista that you might consider for a successful engagement in the city.

May we suggest the Luxembourg gardens for your engagement? It is located in the 6th arrondissement of Paris. It is also referred to as the “Jardin du Sénat”. Designed in 1612 by Marie de Medici, it covers 26 hectares in central Paris.

Lets propose in the heart of Saint Germain des Près, in the latin quater at one of the most beautiful park in Paris. Doesn’t that sound like a smashing idea?

Our clients were staying in a lovely boutique hotel on the edge of the Luxembourg gardens. They had great memories of previous Paris trip, wandering the streets of Saint Germain. We thought the gardens of the Luxembourg would be the perfect setting for their engagement in Paris. And indeed it was just perfect!

A gourmet picnic at the Luxembourg gardens.

So our client decided on a gourmet picnic with our deco setting at the Luxembourg to surprise his partner. We had their gourmet picnic ready by 12h00, a little earlier then usual. The park can get a little busy in the afternoon. There are only that many lawns at the garden where you can rest over lunch hour. Parisian often gather on the lawn to catch up with friends, do their week end exercise and chill with a good book. 12h was the perfect timing.

Our deco picnic was set up in the middle of the main lawn overlooking the senat in the background. The deco included a set of cushions, a vintage picnic blanket, a couple of traditional wicker baskets one of which hosting a silver bucket of iced champagne. We also included vintage umberllas over both baskets to shed the food. On the blanket laid a hand written menu with some candles.

A real classic French style traditional gourmet picnic set up.

Getting engaged with ” Love Picnic Paris “.

“Love Picnic Paris” is the number one Paris gourmet picnic company in the city. Our stylish picnics & traditional wicker baskets are the perfect idea for a festive afternoon. We are always delighted to set up one of our gourmet picnic at a Paris park or the gardens of Versailles for your special event. Our Paris picnics can be coupled with a professional photo session, a visit to the Eiffel tower or a touristic city tour. A Paris picnic is a perfect idea to get together with family and friends. It is a great way to celebrate a birthday in the outside with the view of the Eiffel tower. It is also the perfect romantic girf to your partner while visiting the city.

Naturally so, getting engaged in Paris while enjoying a romantic gourmet picnic is a must! It is a fun, stylish and elegant Parisian experience.

You also will be able to enjoy the city of light waking up to its full beauty. Because our clients are usually a little jetlag travelling to Paris, it is not too difficult to head to the Eiffel tower that early afterall. I assure you it is really worth it!

Your engagement photos will be carefully edited and retouched. The selection will be sent out to you in high resolution format the next day. You will receive a wetransfer link that you can send with your parents back home for the next 7 days.

To do in Paris – Lets enjoy a Gourmet picnic at the park.

To do in Paris – Lets enjoy a Gourmet picnic at the park with ” Love Picnic Paris”. Our couple decided on having a professional couple photo session with our photographer as well. Not sure about you but i am not into selfies. I think it is a wonderful idea to have a professional photo session planned while visiting Paris. It is so rare to have gorgeous photos with your loved ones that you want to print and frame on your wall. Some photos deserve more then just a 24hours story on instagram!

Our photographer had one hour with our couple before they enjoyed their picnic at the park. The session is a lot of fun to do! They both look very happy together. A selection of over 80 photos were edited, retouched and sent out by our photographer the next day via wetransfer.

It is easy to download the high resolution files. You can also send the link to family members back home for the next 7 days. The final result is gorgeous, fun, lively and elegant. Love those photos of our clients!

“Love Picnic Paris” for a romantic afternoon.

Our traditional French style gourmet picnics can be set up at various parks in Paris. We are also somehow flexible with timing for the setting up. The details of your order can be fine tuned directly via email so that we keep track of things.

Our clients moved the date of their picnic once to fit in between activities. It unfortunately rained quite heavily on the day of their picnic. We decided to move the picnic time to the next morning. They were staying at a hotel on the champ Elysées. Because of 8th of May festivities, our French president happened to be present on the champ Elysees on that day. All the roads were blocked for a few hours! They couldn’t managed to reach out to us on time. Again, we decided to postpone the picnic later on in the evening.

And YES, bingo, it did worked beautifully finally! All that to say that we can be very flexible with time and everything else. We do our best to make sure that our clients have a great time with us.

I think it shows in the photos!

Choosing the right location for your picnic.

It does sound simple to set up a picnic around the Eiffel tower. It sometimes gets very crowded specially on week ends. The center area of the champ de mars can get specially overcrowded. The city often decides to close part of the area to let the grass grow as well. We set up in the morning to find the best spot for our clients depending on daily activities.

We decided to set up Ali and Seema’s picnic a little off the side of the main area of the champ de Mars. The spot we chose was quite peaceful, a little sheltered with trees. The light was gorgeous, shining from the tree line off the side (great for photography). We let our clients know of their picnic location roughly 1/2 hour before the beginning of their picnic via geo localization.

All that you have to do is make sure that your phone is on & connected to whatsapp!

We take care of the rest for you!

If you are curious, above another one of our gourmet picnic with our deco set up at the champ de Mars for a family of four. Many things to do in Paris while visiting the city – lets enjoy a gourmet picnic at the park.

Ordering your picnic in Paris.

Ordering your picnic in Paris is easy! Our clients ordered our Amelie Poulain gourmet picnic. Their picnic was set up at the park for them. We propose 4 different picnic style to choose from.

*Amelie Poulain menu: French traditional baguette, selection of cheeses, selection of cold meats, market salad, vegetable quiche, seasonal fruits, chocolate cake.

A wonderful Paris surprise proposal!

We found out a day later that Mitchell had the intention to propose while visiting Paris with his girlfriend. He had decided to keep it TOP SECRET from everyone in town. Such a wonderful Paris surprise proposal.

Our photographer realized it while Michell took the ring out of his pocket, kneeled down and proposed to his loved one. The photos ( And it is a very personal point of view ) are gorgeous. Why! Because they are not planned, not set up, organized! They were both a little reserved and our professional photographer did a great job in making sure that they were going to have a great time with him. I think that the photos speaks for themselves. They look so HAPPY together! A lot of laughters and a few tears as well … We have amazing clients and we are so glad that we are able to assist them with such an important moment in their life. A Paris surprise proposal is certainly a little stressful to organise specially when you have never been to France before and do not speak the language.
