Posh & Luxury Picnics
Gulf Shores & Orange Beach
It doesn’t get better than a beachfront picnic. Enjoy tasty treats under sunny skies as you’re serenaded by the rolling waves, with nothing on your hands but time and tan lines. Alfresco has never been so fabulous!
Picnics on the beach are hardly a new concept, but they’ve recently seen a trendy new twist. Specialty companies now offer pop-up picnics, a luxurious new take on an authentic dining experience. These posh beach picnics are far from the old blanket and icebox method — they’re extraordinary culinary events complete with stylish decor, custom seating, umbrellas, and tableware.
These new and notable picnic experiences are perfect for groups and events of all sizes. Beach visitors have booked these premium picnics for proposals, birthdays, anniversaries, date nights, engagement parties, and more. Best of all, no preparation or cleanup is required — you simply book your date, confirm your details, and arrive ready to enjoy a fantastic picnic experience.
