Rising Stars: Meet Picnic Perfect

Today we’d like to introduce you to Nour Jarouche. 

Hi Nour, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
We are three Lebanese sisters, Abir, Sereen, and Nour Jarouche, who grew up in Toledo, OH. Although we each have our own career paths and work as a Pharmacist, Accountant and Engineer, we have always had a passion for hosting and gathering the people we love to celebrate and make lasting memories. After the COVID pandemic, we realized how important it was to celebrate and cherish special moments with family, friends, and loved ones, so we wanted to create a special and unique way to share it with others. One year ago, we started Picnic Perfect for fun, not knowing what it could become. A year later, it has grown more than we have imagined. We started off by introducing our Luxury Picnic and Party Planning services to the Toledo and Surrounding areas through our Instagram and Facebook pages. We have met so many amazing people and were a part of their special moments and celebrations. We’ve also made connections with vendors and collaborated with local businesses to bring picture-perfect moments to life. Through all this, being surrounded by individuals who have a love and passion for this field and creating beautiful memories for people is the best part of what we do. 

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
The journey to creating Picnic Perfect has definitely been a learning experience. We strive to provide the best quality of service to our clients while juggling full-time jobs and daily life responsibilities. Receiving feedback and interest from clients has definitely helped in shaping and developing the services we offer. Each new service came with its challenges and required us to learn new techniques and ways of bringing the client’s vision to life. Our latest service, custom party planning, has been the most challenging so far. When the client provides us with their party theme, it gives us a challenge to collaborate with vendors and creators to bring the vision together. Every event gives us something new to learn and discover, and we are always making the effort to improve and expand our services. 

Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
Picnic Perfect specializes in Luxury Picnics, Party Planning, and Party Rentals in Toledo, OH and the surrounding areas. Our curated luxury picnics offer a unique experience for a laid-back gathering, an intimate date night, or any celebration with your closest family and friends. When booking your Luxury Picnic, we offer a variety of themes to choose from. The most popular theme is our Bohemian Dream theme, which has neutral tones to set a laid-back Boho vibe. If you’re interested in taking your picnic to the next level, we also provide a list of add-ons you can choose from to enhance your experience. The add-ons include charcuterie and fruit boards, fresh flower arrangements, balloons, paint and canvas, and many more. 

We are also known for Party Planning custom-themed birthdays, baby or bridal showers, proposals, and other special occasions. We take care of the planning and coordination of your party needs and provide you the best quality services. We can help put your party ideas together to create a vision or go to the full extent and make it come to life by creating your dessert table display, balloon garlands, and decorations. Another unique service we offer is setting up tablescapes. This is a great service to use for dinner parties or holiday gatherings with family. It includes place settings and table centerpieces, or the overall decoration of your table. 

Party rentals are also another service we offer to complete any party. You can rent unique items like the white wood cart, which can be used to display candy, drinks, desserts, etc. Another popular rental item is the Wood Arch Backdrops. Our rentals also include other items like a chocolate fountain, movie screen & projector, a variety of dessert stands, and more. As interest for luxury picnics and party planning in the Toledo area increases, we are excited to continue expanding and providing more services. We can’t wait to make your next event Picnic Perfect for you! 

Alright, so before we go, can you talk to us a bit about how people can work with you, collaborate with you or support you?
As a small women-owned business, we take pride in supporting and collaborating with small local businesses. The community in Toledo is very supportive and provides many opportunities for small businesses to interact with each other and support one another. We are grateful for the people we have worked with so far and we are looking forward to collaborating with more people that have the same love and passion for creating these special moments for others. We welcome any local vendors and other small businesses in Toledo and the surrounding area that have an interest to work and collaborate with us to contact us through our email at picnicperfect419@gmail.com.
