Does Picnics & Graze staff stay with us during our picnic?
No, we leave after you're settled and return once your picnic reservation ends. If you need us during your picnic, you can call or text the Picnics & Graze concierge number (provided in the confirmation e-mail) and they can be on-site within minutes.
Can we leave whenever we want?
If you would like to leave earlier than your arranged time, please give us a 30 min notice by phone call or text. You are responsible for the picnic items until we are able to return and pack up.
What's your cancellation policy?
We do not offer any refunds, however, we can change your reservation date/time with a 72-hour notice free of charge. If you choose to change the date or time after that, there is a 20% rescheduling fee.
What happens if there is bad weather?
Michigan weather can be unpredictable at times, but our best weather is from spring (April) to fall (Sept/Oct) so we have planned our outdoor picnics around those seasons. If it looks like bad weather will affect your picnic, we will contact you ahead of time to reschedule the date, time, or location. (there is no cancellation charge to reschedule your picnic due to bad weather).
How far in advance should I book?
Just like any great venue, we do require reservations and we book up fast so it's best to reserve your date as soon as possible!
