Romantic Picnic?

Question

I want to have a romantic picnic for my bf's birthday...

I was hoping you could help me think of things to put in it?

Answer 1

A french theme would be good. A nice wine and some cheese, crackers, grapes, etc. Fruit is good, strawberries are romantic. Definately lean towards less messy. If you want to do sandwiches, pick something a little different, a shrimp sandwich with chipotle mayo, or a steak and blue cheese sandwich. Maybe do "dipping" like a veggie dip with fresh veggies, and a fruit dip with fresh cut fruit. and chicken and shrimp on skewers and dipping sauces (peanut, sesame, bbq) to dip them in.  For a nice summery drink, maybe a mojito, or a blueberry vodka and lemonade.

Answer 2

Put things you can eat with your hands, no utensils. (Precut)Cheese & Crackers, grapes, mini sandwiches, wine if you can drink and its allowed where you are going. If not your favorite drinks in wine glasses.

Answer 3

maybe make a nice big salad with grilled shrimp and steak and have some pitas on the side instead of sandwiches

get take out containers to store them in

chocolate covered strawberries for dessert

are you old enough for a cocktail?

Answer 4

My boyfriend just did this for me last week. He got a large bag and put fancy plastic cups, plates, he got all the little stuff you might need but forget. Napkins, utensils. He packed in the car two blankets, and two small pillows. He bought lunch from a small deli, little sandwiches and fruit, and packed a radio and CD with romantics songs. We went late in the afternoon so we could watch the sunset by the ocean. It was too perfect.

Remember to keep it simple, make a list and prepare ahead of time. It's about the two of you and how much you love and appreciate each other. Hope everything works out for you good luck!

Answer 5

A nice cold chicken salad with cranberries in it, dolloped on a bed of romaine lettuce would be wonderful. A bottle of wine would be great with some fresh fruit and maybe some home made brownies.
