Decoration, included in the picnic at the Palacio de Cristal
Decoration always helps to enjoy the moment and remember it for a lifetime. We can’t help but use decorative elements that make each occasion unique and special.
For Gloria’s birthday, we transformed the lawn of the Crystal Palace into a charming setting with a red and white striped picnic blanket, geometric cushions, a wooden tray for food and drinks, and some small vases with flowers. The atmosphere was simply magical.
It should be noted that, if you have a passion such as theatre, the circus, painting, sculpture or dance, we will take care of decorating the picnic space according to your tastes! Imagine a picnic at the Palacio de Cristal surrounded by elements that you are passionate about, making your celebration even more memorable.
Whether with bright colours, soft textures or small ornaments that tell a story, decoration is an essential part of our Perfect Plan.
Finger-licking appetizers
As you may know, Spanish cuisine is famous all over the world, and having a picnic is an excellent way to enjoy some of its most emblematic dishes, such as Spanish omelette, Iberian sausages and delicious cheeses.
But we also offer other options so that you can always choose according to your tastes, such as fruit with chocolate or cupcakes or vegan or vegetarian food. Even kosher food, or if not, take a look at this marriage proposal with a kosher picnic with views of the Crystal Palace.

In the case of Gloria and David, the experience was even more special thanks to the delicious Mexican food they tasted. Cheese tequeños, empanadillas, tacos… everything delicious! Each bite was a feast of flavors that made their picnic at the Palacio de Cristal unforgettable. All this was possible thanks to Madrid Picnic, who took care of every detail to ensure that their day was perfect.

A delicious cake
To complete Gloria and David’s celebration, a delicious cake could not be missing. La Merendona, known for offering some of the best cakes in Madrid, was in charge of sweetening the moment.
Gloria blew out the candles on a spectacular chocolate and dulce de leche cake, with layers of authentic Argentine dulce de leche between her famous chocolate sponge cake.
Each bite of this cake was a hearty delight, an explosion of flavors that made Gloria’s birthday even more special. The combination of textures and the intense flavor made it the perfect finishing touch to an unforgettable day.
Photos and videos to remember
To make every occasion memorable, it is essential to have a photographer and a videographer who can capture every special moment. In the case of Gloria and David, making sure they could relive their day was a priority. That is why we enlisted Leyre, from Leyre Photography, a professional photographer with the talent and the perfect eye to immortalize every moment with her lens.
Leyre was in charge of capturing the magic of the celebration, from the radiant smiles to the most intimate details of the picnic. Thanks to her skill and dedication, Gloria and David will be able to remember with emotion what that special moment they shared was like.
