PAYMENT PLANS AVAILABLE

To secure your booking, all we need is a $100 + GST deposit. We offer custom payment plans at no extra cost. Once we receive your deposit we will be in touch to organise the best arrangements with you and just need you to have paid in full prior to the day. If you prefer, you can still pay upfront to save the extra mucking around with a payment plan but it makes no difference from our end so please do whatever is best for you.

Weekday Picnics

We typically only hold picnics on weekends as we run back to back picnics with 2 locations running at once. This allows us to spread the workload out across picnics including the time needed to prepare, make food, travel, setup and pack up. We occasionally run week day picnics if a client has their heart set on that certain day for say a proposal, anniversary, birthday or other special occasion. A week day picnic is a full day of work for us so we charge an additional $200 + GST for a week day picnic to cover the additional time involved. Please get in touch if you would like a week day picnic and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

OUR STORY

We’re a young local couple who are lucky to call the Blue Mountains home and feel privileged to be able to create special moments for all of our wonderful clients. We love getting outdoors and enjoying nature in our own backyard whether that be bushwalking, checking out cool lookouts, kayaking or 4wding. We also like food and wine too!

We created Blue Mountains Picnics in August 2020 as we thought it would be an exciting business to put together combining a lot of our passions. We wanted to give anyone the opportunity to experience the Blue Mountains through the lens of a local by finding stunning spots that aren’t over crowded so you can really connect with nature and those you love. We’ve put a lot of thought and time into every detail of our picnics which showcase everything the Blue Mountains has to offer from the beautiful views, diverse wildlife and delicious food.

Our primary focus is now helping our clients with arguably the biggest moments of their lives being weddings and proposals. Our goal is to make these moments stress free, cost effective and something you will cherish for the rest of your life. It really warms our heart to be a part of such special milestones and there is nothing we love more than getting a rave review from a client who was blown away by their experience.

We also run Blue Mountains Weddings at the stunning Leuralla Amphitheatre and offer all-inclusive packages for elopements, micro weddings and wedding packages for up to 200 people.

By choosing us for your special day, you are also supporting a small business with each and every client meaning a lot to us. We’re the sole owners of the business and have put in a lot of hard work, risk and investment of our own hard earned money to get established. It is also very important to us to support other local businesses whether that be our in-house celebrants and photographers, our team who helps us setup and deliver the picnics, our suppliers and more. We want to showcase and help as many local businesses and families as possible.

We’d love to welcome you to the Blue Mountains so we can have the pleasure of being a part of your special day

- Kyle & Emily

  • 2 rugs to replace a traditional picnic blanket
  • Lots of cushions so you’re super comfy
  • Decor including flowers, lantern and more.
  • Picnic basket, blankets, games, sunscreen, insect repellant and a first aid kit
  • Bluetooth speaker so you can play your favourite music
  • Table to place drinks
  • Ice bucket and glassware
