-
Yes, this is a BYOB experience. Our picnics do not include food. Bring your favorite drinks, snacks and food to enjoy during the picnic, or grab some takeout on the way. If you’d like us to provide food for your picnic, please select the Charcuterie add-on at checkout.
-
Yes, picnics are BYOB. Please note that most public parks prohibit the consumption of alcohol on-site.
-
We will arrive 1-2 hours before your appointment to set everything up. You don't have to lift a finger! If your picnic is at a public park, we'll text you the exact location so you can find your picnic easily. You can just arrive with your guests at your scheduled appointment time. Then just sit back and enjoy! We’ll return at the end of your picnic to clean up.
-
Nope! We will return to your location at the end of your picnic and handle all of the cleanup. If the picnic is at your private residence, we will need at least 20 minutes to clean up and get out of your way.
-
Wherever you’d like! We have a few options in our booking form, but we can also set up in your favorite park, lakeside spot, backyard, living room, Airbnb, etc. We especially love Turtle Creek Park and White Rock Lake Park. If you request a park setup, you are in charge of any permits and fees necessary to host an event there.
-
Unfortunately, The Dallas Arboretum and the Fort Worth Botanic Garden do not allow picnic tables. We can only offer classic blanket-style picnics in those locations.
-
The sooner you book, the better! We need at least 7 days of lead time to plan your picnic. This gives us time to confirm inventory and staffing for your special event. Custom events and garden parties must be booked at least 30 days in advance so we have ample time to source your design elements.
-
Full payment is due at the time of booking. If you’ve chosen a custom theme, we’ll send a separate invoice for any specially-sourced items after our consultation.
-
As your event approaches, we’ll keep an eye on the weather forecast. If it looks like rain or rough weather is headed your way, we’ll reach out to chat through other options — whether that’s rescheduling or switching to a cozy in-home setup.
If unexpected severe weather (like rain or thunderstorms) cuts your event short, you may be eligible for a partial refund.
-
Life happens, we get it! If something comes up, we’re happy to work with you to reschedule your event. Just email us at contact@wanderlustdfw.com at least 7 days before your reservation. With 7+ days’ notice (or in the case of inclement weather), you can reschedule at no extra cost. Refunds are offered on a case-by-case basis and are not guaranteed. But we’ll always do our best to make sure your picnic still happens.
Because we work with third-party vendors for our Balloons, Charcuterie and Fresh Flower add-ons, those orders are non-refundable and subject to availability for your rescheduled event.
