Your bride tribe. Your best friends. The people you want surrounded by you when you say, “I do”! Choosing your wedding party is usually the first and most important task after getting engaged.

Customize your picnic proposal with a couple tips from us at Events By Deb! The Location Your first step is to find the best location. Think about places you and your significant other love to travel to. You can choose a place that is local or a destination to make it an adventure. Perhaps you have a favorite hiking spot you can set up your picnic. If you live near a beach, create that perfect sandy retreat with the waves as your background. If no particular spot comes to mind, we recommend researching local park grounds that have a private area so you have privacy. Make sure you watch the weather! The Set Up There are two ways to set up a picnic proposal. The first is to set everything up beforehand. What we love about this method is that you can completely customize the look of your picnic. Have a bottle of champagne chilling with two glasses on a flat surface surrounded by candles. One couple used a recycled wooden pallet to set up their food, beverages, and candles. Next to this place a big blanket with pillows customized with “Will You Marry Me?” for that ultimate cozy look and surprise as...
