I love the picnic blankets! They are the only things I had planned but forgot for my wedding day (which was completely awesome and perfect)…. I didn’t have a picnic themed wedding, but I had a low key, intimate (but stylish!) wedding at a small venue with a gorgeous, grassy lawn on a bluff overlooking the ocean. Many guests skipped having their meal inside the venue and instead brought their plates outdoors to the patio. My husband and I loved that everyone felt relaxed enough to do that! The only things missing were these lovely picnic blankets. 🙂
So dreamy!
It’s not picnic, but the most affordable catering option we found was for a backyard BBQ option- burgers, brats, salad and potato chips (and Butterbeer, because Harry Potter Wedding)
It’s nice because they will literally show up, serve food, clean up and leave us to party. Easy and minimal fuss for us!
