CREATING MOMENTS OF JOY.

It's what we dream about... so why not make it happen!

Hi, I am Katerina

The heart behind Picnique. The idea first came to me in late 2022, and by 2023 I had turned it into reality. Since then, I’ve been pouring my energy into creating picnics that feel special, meaningful, and deeply personal.

I run Picnique on my own, from the first email to the very last detail of each setup. What I love most is seeing people’s faces light up when they arrive — those emotions are why I do what I do. I’m always dreaming up new setups and exploring fresh locations around Queenstown so that every picnic feels unique and extraordinary.

For me, it’s never just about the picnic itself. It’s about slowing down, celebrating love and connection, and creating moments you’ll carry with you long after the day has passed.

I BELIEVE IN PASSION AND PURPOSE.

Picnique was created with the idea that every celebration deserves care, beauty, and intention.

Each setup is thoughtfully curated — from the styling details to the locations I choose — so that it feels inviting, effortless, and full of meaning. Whether it’s a proposal, an elopement, or a gathering with loved ones, my goal is to create spaces where people can slow down and truly enjoy the moment.

For me, it’s never just about the picnic itself — it’s about the joy, connection, and memories that unfold around it.

THE MOMENT

There’s something magical about taking a moment just for yourself, or with someone you love. At Picnique, we create spaces where you can pause, breathe, and let the world fade away for a little while.

It’s in those quiet minutes — sharing a laugh, clinking glasses, or simply sitting together — that the memories are made. Every detail, every touch, every choice is made so that the moment feels effortless, yet unforgettable.

Because life moves fast, and sometimes the best thing you can do is simply slow down.

  • Katerina was amazing. I am not from New Zealand and was coordinating everything from overseas. She was so sweet to accommodate all my requests from personalized signage to paint and sip activity. Katerina is very responsive and goes above and beyond to make your day
    special.
