How Far in Advance Should We Book?
We recommend booking your luxury picnic at least 3-4 weeks in advance to ensure that we can accommodate your desired date and location. However, last-minute bookings may be possible depending on availability.
Can I Bring My Own Food?
Absolutely! We encourage you to bring along any food items that you'd like to enjoy during your picnic.
Can I Reschedule My Picnic?
We understand that life is unpredictable and we will do our best to work with you to reschedule your picnic. Please contact us as soon as possible so we can arrange a new date.
Do The Cordial Picnics Staff Stay During Our Picnic?
Our staff sets up and takes down the picnic, but once it's set up, they will step back and give you and your guests the space to enjoy the picnic experience.
Can We Leave Before The 2 Hours Is Up?
Our picnics are set for 2 hours, but we understand that plans can change. If you need to leave early, just let us know and we’ll take care of everything from there. Please note that the full picnic fee still applies.
Can We Bring Alcohol?
Alcohol is not permitted at picnics set up in public spaces, in accordance with local regulations. If you choose a private location, you’re welcome to bring your own alcoholic beverages. Please note that Cordial Picnics is not responsible for any alcohol brought to your picnic.
What Happens If There Is Bad Weather The Day Of My Picnic?
Because our picnics take place outdoors, weather on PEI can change quickly. Our goal is always to make sure you have the best possible experience.
If the weather isn’t ideal on the day of your picnic, we’re happy to offer flexible options, including moving your picnic indoors or rescheduling to a later date at no additional cost.
In some cases, environmental factors like high tides, strong winds, or wet ground may require a change in location. If that happens, we’ll be in touch and suggest a nearby alternative that still fits the overall feel of your picnic.
Can You Pick Any Location On PEI?
Our preferred picnic locations in PEI are carefully selected, but if you have a specific park or beach in mind, we'll do our best to accommodate your request. Simply provide us with the GPS location and our team will assess it. Note that there will be additional fees for locations beyond the 40 km radius
What If We Break Or Spill Something?
After your picnic, it would be appreciated if you could inform us of any major spills so that we can resolve the matter efficiently and avoid cleaning or replacement fees. For any broken or damaged items, a $50 fee will apply.
What Is Your Cancellation Policy?
We understand that plans can change, and we’ll always do our best to be flexible. If you need to cancel your picnic, please let us know at least 72 hours in advance for a full refund. Cancellations made within 72 hours of your scheduled picnic will receive a 50% refund. If you do not show up for your scheduled picnic, no refund will be issued.
In the case of poor weather, we’ll work with you to reschedule your picnic or provide a full refund.
