Oahu Premier Picnics

What can I say? This woman-owned small business is a total gem! They delivered everything they promised and then some. The grazing table was not just fantastic; it was a work of art--so meticulously prepared that even my son, who's on the spectrum, couldn't resist diving in! Jaimie is a breath of fresh air, unlike those other businesses that seem to have a "no accommodation" policy. I wholeheartedly recommend this service to any couple or small group looking to host a simple yet unforgettable gathering. Thanks to Jaimie, our 25th wedding anniversary is officially in the books! Even my kids, who are notoriously hard to please, were raving about it. So if you want your next get-together to be a hit, look no further--this is the place to graze!

I want to leave a positive review since it's a small business operated by an individual, but at this price tag (total: $550+tax) and the experience we received for our PROPOSAL, I want to share my full experience to warn others who may be interested in this servicePROs:- Food quality: chacuterie had a lot of variety and was fresh. Jaime also had a small fan to help keep flies away from our food which was a helpful addition. Our chocolate dipped strawberry, rice crispy and Oreo dessert dish were all great and freshly prepared- Punctuality: Jaime was punctual and everything was set up by the time we got there CONS:- Location: the picnics are offered at a park where there are many patches of dead grass. There are so many beautiful areas of hawaii and this one was just not it. There weren't many palm trees (maybe only 1 where we took photos), and several folks after seeing my proposal picture had to ask if it back home in California, or hawaii- Photographer ($150 of the $550) was a total flop and the worst part of the entire experience. Let me elaborate: - This was booked for our proposal, a once in a lifetime event. However, 90% of the photos are blurry and unusable (see photos attached for yourself). There are 2 "money" shots that I feel are a requirement: the actual proposal AND the ring picture (both of which are blurry).- Our photos were sent exactly 7 days after the proposal, with a # of edited photos and some unedited ones. I noticed that certain pictures were missing (such as a close up ring photo) and asked for all of the raw photos to be sent which she did 2 days later. To my surprise, it was blurry- Out of 130 photos, only 4 are deemed usable, in my opinion. Out of these 4, I have also asked for the raw images since I am not a fan of how the editing smoothed out our skin texture to not look natural. I have requested the raw images, but have been ignored. Technically her end of the contract is fulfilled with X number of photos and X number of edits (And she kindly provided all the photos exceeding the originally contracted # of photos). I also understand that the definition of a "good photo" is subjective, but I think we can unanimously agree that blurry photos or providing FULL edits to photos (where there's only a certain number of photos to be edited per contract) of when 1 fiancé is not ready (or smiling, see photo attached) is bad. The owner refused a refund for the $150 for photos. And I think the least that can be done to make it right is to send the raw images for the 4 photos that I requested so I can re-edit them and not blur/smooth our skin My fiancé purposely chose a picnic for the proposal, as it is one my favorite past times and we have worked with many picnic planners before. Though, the planning was fine, the quality and service which we were given is truly disappointing.EDIT below is responding to Jaime's comment below as yelp doesn't have a "comment" feature - the 130 photos that include raw images do NOT provide the images that have already been retouched. I was hoping to get the non blurry proposal photo raw so I can re-edit as the skin texture is too edited/smoothed for our liking

First of all everything was booked via the website and paid for upfront. I received a booking confirmation email with a few questions and a contract. I was in Texas so I was a bit nervous but I have to say, I am beyond pleased with the entire experience.This was a surprise for my husband's birthday. I booked the sunset Hawaiian experience at Magic Island because we wanted local native food options as opposed to anything I could get back home, and didn't want sand in our food lol.Jamie was very responsive (5 hour difference in time zones) and accommodating. Her directions the day of we're on point, even for me who has ZERO sense of direction, I had no trouble at all finding the location.From the beautiful fresh and fragrant leis, pineapple infused water, to the delicious wine concoction she made, fresh local fruits, dishes and desserts the entire experience was amazing. I found out I wasn't a poi person but hers was actually pretty good. We were past full and had so much food.We had a Bluetooth speaker and she was nice to take a few pictures while we weren't even looking and sent them to me. Everything about Jamie, her journey and believes resembles this island so well. We were lucky to meet her partner and both are so sweet and genuine. They purchased their bamboo cutlery from another small business which in a way is giving back. I loved this.Support small businesses and enjoy a unique experience with your loved ones, sounds like a win win in my book. Can't wait to return for our anniversary!Thank you Jamie for making our night another memory for the books.

I had this planned out for months and Oahu Premier Picnics really helped out pulling this off :) The pricing is very reasonable, very cute setup and very very accommodating. I'm glad I reached out to them!

I request a last minute picnic brunch for my birthday with my favorite color palette . Peacock and she delivered the food selection was scrumptious and the mimosas were delicious, loved the papaya flavor . I really appreciated this special touch and attention to detail

What a fun brunch! Jamie was so sweet and accommodating for our combo birthday/early anniversary picnic. My guy's 42 bday and 22 years together . Set up was in a perfectly shady spot at Kualoa Regional Beach Park. WOW so much food! The design of the charcuterie board was amazing with a ton of variety of sweet and salty goodness. I loved that our mimosas glasses were never empty. The finish was a tray of perfectly dipped chocolate treats for dessert. A nice souvenir set of reusable utensils and bamboo straws is a great memento to bring a smile to our faces each time we use them. I'l definitely l be recommending OPP to friends and family to celebrate their special days.

First I'd like to apologize for the delay in writing this review, this is long overdue... Words cannot describe the incredible experience I had booking a special picnic with Jamie and Oahu Premier Picnics. From the initial point of contact to the very last minute, Jamie was was amazing. I was struggling to find a way to make our 10 year anniversary special and I truly feel like Oahu Premier Picnics was a gift from God. Thank you again for everything!

Jamie did an amazing job for our 25th anniversary. The spot was perfect with a view of the sunset and her service and attention to detail were outstanding. Highly recommend this if you'd like a special romantic moment.

A huge shoutout to Oahu Premier Pinics for planning and making this the perfect night. I used their proposal package, and Jamie went out of her way to make this a special night. She thought about everything and made it a night to remember. In addition to planning for the rainy weather, she even sent coded text messages to keep my cover plan intact, so my fiancee could be surprised! I highly recommend using them for any plans you make.

Jamie took care of every detail, you can select your location, the charcuterie boards were amazing, the dessert was delicious as well. The personal touches that she added to our event made our picnic perfect.
