About Us

Hello, my name is Melissa and I started Picture Perfect Picnics in the Spring of 2020. We changed the name in 2022 to better reflect our two passions, Raleigh and picnics. I love picnics because you can learn so much about a region and culture by picking up some simple goodies at the local market. You can slow down and absorb the heart of a community. Stretching your bare feet out on a blanket with some sumptuous goodies pulls you back in time, and heightens your senses. You begin to appreciate simple things such as the warm sun on your face, the smells of exotic flowers, the buzz of the locals chatting in the park, and the taste of simple, quality foods. Picnics take you back to a time when things moved at a slower pace and you could spend your carefree days outdoors all day!
