Romantic Picnic Ideas for Couples

 


When you hunt for picnic ideas for couples – especially for a romantic time together – you have to keep a few things in mind. Picnic is much more than good picnic food when it comes to couple’s picnic.

The following are some of the things that you have to keep in mind when planning for a picnic with your loved one or partner.

Purpose of the picnic

Picnic is much more than spending time together. A lot of couples make life changing decisions over a picnic. You have to first decide on the occasion (e.g. Valentines day, Her/His Birthday, Anniversary) and what to achieve at the end of the day – it could be probably a good time to propose to her, some time together to sort things out, talking about planning kids and even preparing for that.

Time and location chosen

If you are looking at a family picnic a lot of people may set off early in the morning to be back before the sun is at its peak. However, when it comes to a romantic picnic for couples, something like a early to mid-evening is probably the best time.

When it comes to the locations, you have to go for a place that doesn’t tire you out. Having chosen the evening time, if you get to go for a picnic near water bodies – where streams or waterfalls are present – would be just out of this world. Picnics are even more exciting when you get to hear the nature’s sounds like chirping of birds and sights such as the beautiful sky or setting sun.

Regardless of the place, make sure that you give utmost priority to the safety of the place chosen and be prepared to hurry back in case of any bad weather, unexpected people, animal threat etc.

Surprises

Picnic can be more romantic and exciting with a few surprised packed in. It could be as simple as her favorite dessert, a bunch or roses, a few candles or something to cherish for life such as proposal ring or even the keys to a new home. More than the dollar value of the gift, the surprise factor is what matters.

Packing some surprises is the key success ingredient of a romantic picnic

Some of the other surprises could be singing a song for her or playing a musical instrument for her that she never knew you were good at.

Picnic Food Ideas for Couples

Wine is probably one of those indispensable things that makes a perfect romantic evening picnic. When you chose food for picnic, cook those things that are delicate and less troublesome for your stomach. Something sensual and delicious add value to the occasion and obviously you have to choose things that don’t get spoiled easily in the picnic basket.

If you are not a good cook, it’s not a bad idea to pack food from a caterer. Also, unlike those whole family picnics, it’s better to avoid cooking and grilling on the picnic spot where you want to spend more time talking to your partner.

How to spend time together?

Do a lot of talking looking into each other’s eyes and listen a lot to your partner as well. Avoid unpleasant topics and things that could end up in arguments. Talking about nature, stars, skies and beauty in general make a picnic more romantic.

Things to avoid include talking over your mobile phones (keep it on mute or shut it off), laptops, playing the radio or even teaming up with friends or other couples that you may accidentally bump into. Sporting activities, puzzles and games are not exactly part of romantic picnics. At the end you have to make sure that you both don’t tire yourself up by overdoing or stretching the picnic.

Needless to say to make the best out of a picnic, the weather and suitable clothes play a major role. Also, the right picnic accessories need to be packed up based on a planning list.

Have a good time together with your partner!
