Transport your guests to a picnic dream of your choosing, where connection happens with ease and magic is ever-present.

Affordability & Ease

If you’re looking for a more winsome approach, then invite your guests to kick off their shoes and point them towards a stack of blankets and baskets brimming with goodness.
No table assignments or centerpieces needed. Natural physical distancing.
Skip the hall and find a park:
The City of Portland offers reservations at beautiful parks for low cost permits.

A Real Picnic Wedding
About the Owner
Holly is a lover of themes and well-curated events; when combined, these celebrations make strangers into quick friends and elevate a communal sense of presence. Each event is a creative reflection of the guest and/or occasion, while optimizing within the design parameters. For instance, one host had limited entertaining space and a surplus of cabernet so Holly created a “12 Cabs of Christmas” wine tasting with stations throughout the house to help accommodate a longer guest list. Guests’ first activity was a silly xmas ornament craft which was then used as a voting instrument for each cluster of wine bottles.
Holly has curated dozens of highly memorable parties, showers and retreats – both personal and corporate. This Feng Shui birthday series gives you a simple snapshot of her work with themes: Metal, Water, Wood, Earth, Fire.
If you’re looking to sprinkle some magic on your event, complete the contact form for a complimentary 30 min consultation.
