Meet Your Picnic Planner

I’m Laurel—the heart (and hands) behind the brie, the blankets, and the beautifully styled moments that make gatherings feel like magic. Before launching Popup Picnics, I spent years owning a wine lounge and boutique catering business in sunny California—pouring wine, plating cheese, and planning parties that brought people together over laughter and local flavour.

Now rooted in Lincolnshire, I bring that same warmth and flair to the English countryside—offering thoughtfully curated picnics, grazing tables, and seasonal catering that blend rustic charm with effortless elegance.

Popup Picnics is my love letter to slowing down, celebrating simply, and turning even the smallest gathering into something unforgettable. Whether it’s a meadow-side hen party, a birthday brunch in the garden, or a long lunch under the trees, I believe in food that delights, details that matter, and creating memories served with a side of sparkle.

If you love local cheese, wildflowers, pretty tableware, and parties that don’t take themselves too seriously—welcome. You’re in the right place.

~Cheers!
