It was no brainer working with Runaway Picnic & Luxury Events I needed to have them at our event. The creative director Juwana really brings your events to life. She's so creative and fun to work with! Runaway exceeded our expectations.

This event was spectacular! With Runaway Picnic I organized a romantic evening for an anniversary. I dealt with Juwana, the CEO, who is beyond lovely and very accommodating. The execution of the "luxury romantic" picnic I chose could not have been more beautiful and perfect. This business is a great idea and I was glad to treat my wife to something more unique and magical - she felt very special to be treated like this. Thank you Runaway Picnic!!

I dared a girl if she gives me a second date I would bring her to the best date she will never forget. I immediately booked with Runaway Picnic. The girl was stunned. She said it was the BEST date of her life. Thank you Runaway Picnic!

We had such a wonderful experience with our runaway picnic. Juwana created a beautiful honeymoon escape for my husband and I to celebrate our first day as a married couple. The food was delicious and the view was gorgeous. Thank you so so much for all your hard work creating this beautiful honeymoon escape for us. We can’t wait to have another picnic in the future.
