How does the payment work?A 50% deposit is required to secure your booking. Until that is made, the time slot is available for anyone to book! The remaining 50% of payment is due no later than 5 days prior to your picnic event. You may also choose to pay for the picnic in one installment.

What if I spill or break something?Small spillages (such as water or non-staining items) may not incur a fee. However you may be billed for dry cleaning costs if required. Please inform your host at the end of your picnic if there are any major spills or accidents so they can try to fix and avoid the dry cleaners or if needed replacing the item!

Is it ok if I'm late?While we're here to make your day easier and help you create beautiful memories, we ask that you respect our time and arrive at the agreed time. We may have other bookings we need to get to, and if you're late it affects our whole schedule. We also want your picnic as fresh as possible and if you arrive an hour late, we cannot guarantee the food will still be at it's best! Please let us know as soon as you know you are delayed. However, a fee will be charged if you are late because we can't leave unitl you arrive. 0-20 min no charge, 20+ min $30, 45+ min $60, At an hour we have the right to pack up the picnic without refund. Please also note that your picnic time starts from the originally agreed time whether you are late or not.

Can we use your picnic setups for more than the set time-slot or even overnight?Yes, we are happy to allow you to use the setting for a longer period if availability permits (e.g. if there are no other bookings the same day). We do charge a little extra of $100 for each additional hour. Different fee for overnight hire. However, this must be arranged with us in advance. Please contact us for more information. Contact

What about bad weather?Unfortunately the weather is out of our control. While rare, we sometimes have to move locations or change dates due to bad weather. Our preference is to move the event inside your home. Our styled picnics will still look beautiful indoors. We will always try to accommodate last-minute location changes. We don't offer any refunds but we can reschedule your reservation date (subject to availability) one time without penalty up to 72 hours before your picnic event. Within 72 hours, there is a rescheduling fee of $20 per person. Once the picnic is set up, we cannot reschedule.
