Luxury Picnics, Event Planning & Management, Proposal Experts, Tablescapes and more!
Hey guys! My name is Jillian, and I am the Founder and CEO of The Picnic Fairy & Co. We are based out of beautiful Central Florida, where we call home. I've lived in Florida for 12 years now, but I'm originally from New Jersey. I am Mom to three wonderful kids, Gianna, Mikayla & Evan and my awesome Rhodesian Ridgeback, Micah who we rescued from the shelter a few years ago. I am a special needs, Mom. I have a beautiful 15yr old daughter with Prader-Willi Syndrome and I have been a stay at home Mom, since she was born.
In early 2020, at the start of the Corona Virus Pandemic, I found myself thinking of ways to help support my family financially and also find something that I was passionate about. Having a traditional job just hasn't been possible for me, with the demands of being a special needs Mom. In late 2020, I started The Picnic Fairy & Co. after realizing the importance for families and friends to continue spending time with each other and create memories, despite the challenges that CoVid presents.
I combined my love for interior design and passion for the outdoors, to come up with elegant Pop-Up Picnics set up in beautiful locations. The Picnic Fairy & Co. has given me a way to provide for my family while also being there when I'm needed most. My oldest daughter Gianna, now 20, helps me run The Picnic Fairy & Co. and my younger two help me set up our Pop-Up Picnics when they can so you just may see them at your next Picnic or Special Event. When you do business with The Picnic Fairy, you aren't just supporting a small business, or a local business, you're supporting a special needs family and we appreciate you all from the bottom of our hearts.
UPDATE: 8/31/22
Welcome to The Picnic Fairy & Company! It has been almost two years since I set up our first picnic ever! I can't believe how time has flown and far we have come. In less than one year, we expanded to South Florida, Puerto Rico, Northern Florida and New Jersey.
In South Florida, my very talented sister, Jessenia, runs The Picnic Fairy & Co. She is the Company Chief Operating Officer. Jessenia handles Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties.
In New Jersey, our team is run by a few more of our very talented family members. My brother Luis, his wife Jesenia, and my niece Alyssa.
Northern Florida is managed by the talented Jennifer, a fellow special needs Mom.
Puerto Rico is now managed by Katherinne, who recently purchased the location.
We have over 16k followers on Instagram to date! We have been featured in four magazine articles. We have set up hundreds of luxury picnics including an 87-guest wedding on the beach, a 52-guest prom on the beach, countless wedding proposals, romantic hotel room pop-ups and so many more! We have a 5-star Google, Facebook & Groupon Rating.
Thank you so much to everyone that has supported us on this journey. We wouldn't be here without you all and we appreciate you immensely! Thank you! Thank you! It has been a pleasure working with each of our past client's and we are sure our future client's will be amazing to work with as well! We love being a part of your special moments. We truly love what we do, and we thank you for the opportunity.

"I've spent so many years in an office, at a desk, always rearranging my desk, or at home always changing my decorations or moving furniture around. Its FUN to me. To try the different "setups", to get a different vibe every now and again. Then, when my sister presented me with The Picnic Fairy it was an opportunity I didn't want to turn down. Being able to design luxurious style events is my passion and I couldn't be happier to be doing it daily. I love meeting all of my clients from all parts of the WORLD! It's makes me proud to create these special moments for them. And, yes, I have shed a tear (or two) at a marriage proposal. I believe life is what we make it, and it's these special moments that we remember forever."

Hello! My name is Jennifer Turak and I am the Saint Augustine Picnic Fairy! I am a former Preschool Teacher and stay at home Mom. My youngest daughter and I moved to Saint Augustine almost two years ago so that she could attend the Florida School for the Deaf and Blind. We love Saint Augustine and wish we moved here years ago!!
I started working for the Picnic Fairy last year, just before Valentine's Day and I really love it so much!! I can take care of my daughter full time and bring her along to the picnics. I love decorative pillows, home decor, and use them in my picnic set ups. I also enjoy working with Jillian! She is such an amazing Mom and businesswoman. I love that we can create beautiful and special memories for people. Our clients are so happy to arrive at our picnics and enjoy time with their friends and family. We really do take care of our clients and make everyone feel special! This is how we are as parents and individuals and want to spread the love to everyone! I hope to plan many more picnics together with my daughter and look forward to working with anyone living in or visiting Saint Augustine!!
