About Us

From the Founders

Picnic Makers began with a simple idea: create beautiful outdoor experiences where people can slow down, celebrate life, and enjoy meaningful moments together.

But for us, this journey was about more than picnics — it was about creating something meaningful together.

How it started

We began this journey as a couple with a dream, very little experience, and a strong belief that we could create something special together.

Olga has always been drawn to creativity and beauty. Vlad has always been passionate about structure, systems, and growth. Those two strengths became the foundation of what we know today as Picnic Makers.

Building the dream

About a year after Picnic Makers began, Olga stepped away from her career in finance to focus fully on developing the creative side of the business.

During those early years, we grew Picnic Makers step by step: learning, improving, and shaping the experience we wanted to create for our clients.

After more than 12 years in SEO and digital marketing, Vlad eventually took his own leap, shifting his professional path toward building and growing Picnic Makers together.

What began as a small idea with a clear vision has grown into something we’re incredibly proud of today.

Growing together

Today, Picnic Makers has grown far beyond the two of us.

We are incredibly grateful for our amazing team, who bring passion and care to every event we create. We especially want to recognize Sasha, whose dedication and creativity helped elevate our events to another level.

Even as we grow, we still operate the company like a family — with clear processes, teamwork, and a commitment to providing the service our clients deserve.

Inspired by California

Our story is deeply connected to California.

Vlad and Olga met in Los Angeles, and from the beginning, California felt like home.

The beauty of its beaches, parks, and sunsets inspired us to create experiences that celebrate the California lifestyle: elegant, relaxed, and surrounded by nature.

The moments that matter

From romantic proposals to birthdays and private celebrations, every event we design is meant to feel effortless, intimate, and unforgettable.

Because in the end, it’s not just about the event.

It’s about the moment.

“We wanted to create a way for people to celebrate life’s moments beautifully and effortlessly.” — Vlad & Olga
