Styled picnic table set for golden hour, linens, glassware, and calla lilies

Styled picnics in the Bay Area

Every detail set by hand, from the flowers to the last candle, so all you have to do is arrive.

Taio means “to honor” in Coptic, an ancient Egyptian language. It's the idea behind everything we set out.

We create styled picnic experiences across the Bay Area, for quiet dates and small celebrations alike.

What's in a Taio picnic

Every setup starts with a styled low table and built-in seating, then we layer in the details.

Floor cushions or low stools, arranged around the table.
Tableware
Glassware, plates, and linens laid out by hand.
Florals
Fresh, seasonal, chosen to match your setting.
Decorative details
Candles, trays, and small finishing touches.
Setup and breakdown
We arrive early and clear everything after, so you don't have to.
Personalization

Every picnic can be shaped around your date, your guests, and what you have in mind.
