A little background on PIP...
Fran The founder and CEO of Pretty It Picnics boasts a wealth of experience spanning over 12 years in the wedding and event industry. With a diverse background that started with her first 'proper job' at a princess party company, overseeing bookings and entertainment for children's parties nationwide. This quickly evolved into weekends spent earning extra money to support her studies by working for a wedding caterer at the popular wedding venues Northbrook and Froyle Park.
From humble beginnings as a part-time waitress to eventually running entire events, liaising with suppliers, venues, bridal parties and front-of-house teams, Fran’s expertise grew.
Later transitioning into Recruitment & Staffing for major events across the country, such as Royal Ascot, Farnborough Airshow, and Goodwood, provided invaluable insights into event operations on a grand scale. Years to date spent as the Operations Manager at Profiles Personnel, headquartered in Farnham provided Fran with comprehensive understanding of the industry from every angle.
Post lockdown Fran put together a reunion party for friends after the pandemic in the garden and created her first ever picnic display, this mixed with a passion and vast knowledge for weddings and events is where Pretty It Picnics was born.
