Backyard vs. Park: Why a Private Picnic MightBe the Perfect Choice for You

When planning a luxury picnic, most people immediately think of Denver’s beautiful parks—and for good reason! From mountain views to flower-filled paths, Colorado offers no shortage of scenic outdoor spots. But sometimes, a backyard picnic or quiet, tucked-away location can provide the intimate, relaxed vibe you’re truly looking for.

At Mon Ami Picnic Co., we specialize in creating beautifully styled experiences wherever you are—whether that’s your own backyard or a hidden gem park few know about. Here’s why a private picnic might be the perfect fit for your next celebration.

Backyard Picnics Offer Total Privacy & Flexibility

One of the biggest perks of a backyard picnic? Privacy. You don’t have to worry about crowds, curious onlookers, or noise from other park-goers. Whether you’re planning a surprise proposal, an intimate anniversary dinner, or a family-friendly birthday picnic, your backyard provides a peaceful, familiar setting that we can transform into something extraordinary.

Plus, there’s no need to reserve a public space or follow city park restrictions. With your own backyard, you control the timing, music, and layout—and we handle everything else.

Looking for a Quieter Park? We Know the Hidden Gems

Love the idea of a public park but want something more low-key? We’ve got you. Over the past three years, Mon Ami Picnic Co. has scouted the most serene, scenic, and less-trafficked picnic spots across Denver, Boulder, and beyond. Whether you’re envisioning a shaded grove, a lakeside view, or a tucked-away garden, we’ll help you select the ideal setting for your experience.

Many of our clients come to us with a simple request: “We want something beautiful—but not too busy.” We know exactly where to go.
