The Material:

• Basket - for the food;
• Cooler - for the drinks;
• Checkered picnic tablecloth - for the floor;
• Plates and Glasses - paper or other;
• Silverware - plastic or other;
• Serving utensils;
• Napkins;
• Corkscrew;
• Thermal flask - for ice tea or hot coffee;
• Knife - for bread, etc;
• Cutting board;
• Sunscreen;
• Baby wipes - to wash hands;
• Garbage bag - for liter.

Practical stuff:

1. I would recommend a thick blanket or a rag rug to put under the picnic tablecloth because the floor could be damp;
2. Plastic cutlery and plates are convenient but reusables are environment friendly. When I was little my mother had a plastic picnic set in orange. Do they still make that?
3. Don’t leave perishables unrefrigerated for more than 20 minutes - better to leave those at home;
4. Remember to wear a hat or take a parasol and drink plenty of water - sunstrokes are not romantic.

Don’t miss part 2 - about the food you should take to your romantic picnic.
