“We loved working with Picnic Potential for my daughter's 1st birthday party! We asked that everything be setup by 10am, so Picnic Potential arrived by 8am and had everything complete just after 9am. It was wonderful to work with a punctual, professional and lovely team. All our guests were amazed by the beautiful picnic setup. They loved the low tables and cushions for all our baby and toddler guests. After the party ended, they quickly arrived and took care of all the breakdown. Throughout the entire process, they communicated quickly and clearly with us, so we knew exactly what to expect. I would highly recommend them for a social or corporate event.”

The food was delicious, she was accommodating and set up in a location that was special to us, communicating was so easy and the overall setup was gorgeous.

I am so thankful she was willing to travel so far out of her normal beat and she did an excellent job overall. Her planning process is clear and straightforward but brings a significant wow factor when it all comes together. The food was super tasty and I will definitely be using Alison to help pull off any future parties.”

“Alison did an amazing job putting together a unique and magical experience for my daughter's birthday at Bell Farm Collective. No detail was missed. A special area for the adults to hang out, beautiful picnic set up for the kiddos, and a special tee-pee that the kids loved playing in. Individual lunches for each kid, plus movie snacks. It was better than I imagined. I would highly recommend Alison, she won't disappoint.”

“Absolutely loved booking a picnic with this business. Alison and her staff are extremely helpful, kind and professional. I booked this picnic to celebrate a late birthday and the acceptance into Acupuncture school for my wife. Alison made recommendations on where to have our picnic and even had custom white doctors coat cookies made! The spot she chose for us was a beautiful location in Tiburon and I didn't even know it existed. The food was also excellent. My wife was pleasantly surprised and it was quite a sight to arrive to such a beautiful spread. Highly recommend Picnic Potential and will definitely book them again!”

“Ali is amazing to work with! I couldn't have enough good things to say about her and Picnic Potential. She is kind, responsive, and goes above and beyond in all aspects of the planning and set up. Such gorgeous set ups and decor with personalized touches. Highly recommend for a date night, large event or anything in between!”

“Alison at Picnic Potential was amazing! She was detail oriented, organized and went well above to make my birthday special. The food from Preferred Sonoma was delicious and my guests loved that each person had their own box. Every detail was just perfect — from the flowers, candles, lighting, food, games and the delicious mini pies. I couldn't be more grateful for the experience she created for my guests and me.”

“This is the fourth time in four years I have returned to Picnic Potential to organize an event for me. Alison planned a completely different format for a brunch for our 50th high school class reunion. It was absolutely beautiful and will remain memorable for me and our 60 guests. It was so classy! Thank you Picnic Potential for putting on another very, very special event, and all I had to do was make a couple selections, just show up and simply enjoy the festivities.”

“Such an AMAZING experience with Picnic Potential! I'm not great at planning. Alison made the process so easy! We did a lovely photo shoot/picnic at a gorgeous park in Petaluma. It was the perfect set up! She absolutely nailed it. Highly recommend! Thank you Alison, it was such a pleasure!”

“I highly recommend Picnic Potential! The organizer, Alison, was very kind, professional, organized, and got back to me quickly when I had questions. I had a boho-themed picnic with a few of my close friends for my 18th birthday, and my guests and I loved every part, from the beautiful setup to the delicious sandwich boxes from Preferred Sonoma Caterers. It was such a special way to celebrate. I highly recommend Picnic Potential and I will definitely book another picnic with Alison in the future.”
