FAQs

Can I bring my own food?

Yes, you can bring your own food. We know a good picnic has plenty of refreshments so we encourage our guests to bring food and drinks. If you prefer to just show up, we can arrange all the refreshments! See our current food & beverage offerings under Add-Ons. We also offer catering services for larger groups.

Do I need to clean up after the picnic?

No, please don’t! All you have to do is show up! Leave the rest to us after your picnic ends.

How do I add additional time or guests to my picnic packages?

Please use our Large Group Reservation form for parties with 2+ guests or 2+ hours. An additional guest is $60/person for up to parties of 8 (larger parties have a different rate) and additional time is $100/hr.

What is the cancellation/ reschedule policy?

We understand that life happens! Notify us 1 week in advance for a partial refund of 85% of the full amount. A 15% non-refundable service fee will incur if you do cancel for any reason. Beehive Picnic is not responsible for refunding the full amount.
