Luxembourg Gardens Engagement.

Fabulous Luxembourg gardens engagement with Tej and Erica this past week end in Paris. Paris is a beautiful city all year long and specially in the fall. The days are simply gorgeous with high temperatures at the moment still the leaves are turning gold already, the light is crisp. The days are also getting a little shorter. We are saying goodbye to a glorious summer season and are now welcoming the autumn with all of its beauty in the city.

We organised a gourmet picnic at the Luxembourg gardens for Tej. The idea was that he proposes to his girlfriend while enjoying our deco picnic at the park. Because weekend can get a little busy at the moment, we decided to have the picnic ready by 12h. We set it up at one of the two lawns that are accessible to the public. The Luxembour garden is certainly the perfect spot for a proposal, overlooking the main fountain and the senat in the background.

For the one of you who have not been to Paris yet, the Luxembourg garden is located in the 6th arrondissement. The garden is steps away from the historical Sorbonne university, as well as the Paris Jazz clubs and art cinemas of Saint Germain des Près. The parc is also a few minutes walk from the seine river and walking distance to “les deux Magots” and the “café de Flore”. Both cafés are a literally institution of the boulevard Saint Germain.

Planning your Paris engagement.

There are 1001 ways to plan your engagement while visiting Paris. It could actually be quite daunting, specially if you have never visited the city before. There are so many options available in Paris to propose to your long time partner. Paris is indeed a very romantic city & every street corner is a little gem.

It just so happened that our gourmet picnics have become quite a popular idea for a Paris engagement. We have produced gourmet picnic events in the city for over 6 years now. More and more clients get in touch to assist them with their engagement in the city. Because of high demands, we also started proposing picnics at the gardens of Versailles where we now host quite a few proposal picnics. We are now also proposing sunrise gourmet picnic proposal at the Eiffel tower. You will find a few of our romantic gourmet picnic stories on our website.

Olivier produces wonderful engagement stories that complement our gourmet picnics so perfectly well. Each of our Paris engagements are quite unique. Olivier has a rare talent with people. He knows how to make our clients feel at ease & he is also a lot of fun to be with.

A Paris proposal experience.

Tej was set on the Luxembourg gardens for his Paris engagement. We included a bottle of champagne as well as red roses to his romantic picnic.

Tej proposed to Erica when they arrived at the picnic site. Olivier photographed their proposal discreetly from the distance. He then introduced himself and took a few more photographs at the picnic site. Tej and Erica had one hour and a half to enjoy their lunch. Once they finished their lunch, Olivier took our couple around the park for the remaining hour of photography.

A selection of over 50 photographs were sent out to them via we transfer the next day. All of the photos were edited, retouched and sent in high format. Our couple can then announce their engagement to friends and family. They also have a week to share the link with families back home.

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.

Served with a bottle of rosé wine.

Today, we wanted to publish a story from this past summer with a family from Porto Rico. It was the 14th of July, our national French holiday. I remember the date because we rarely set up Picnics on the river seine. Only the champ de mars area was all locked off, getting ready for the evening firework celebration. Our clients wanted a view of the Eiffel tower to enjoy their picnic experience in the city rightfully so!

Big blue sky, some colorful balloons, our traditional wicker picnic baskets, red roses, a bottle of champagne orchestrated the perfect Paris birthday celebration.

Paris secret proposal at the Louvre

Paris secret proposal at the Louvre gardens.

We have officially entered the fall season in Paris with a lovely secret proposal at the Louvre gardens! Ivan, our client contacted us a while back to assist him with the planning of his proposal to his long time girlfriend. We decided on the Louvre gardens to set up one of our gourmet picnic. The picnic was all ready to enjoy by 12h30. Ivan was to arrive at the location after a morning bike ride. He surprise his girlfriend with the proposal, crack the bottle of champagne open and enjoy our “Edith Piaf” picnic with his lover surrounded by French history.

Ivan especially requested for a peaceful location in the city center close to the place Vendome where the morning ride was to end. The Louvre is one of the main visited site in the city right after the eiffel tower. It attracts millions of tourist yearly. The park is located in between the museum and the tuilerie gardens. It happens to be peaceful and a perfect location for a romantic afternoon.
