The Goose Behind The Gild

A Note from the Founder

Hi, I’m Amy, the heart behind Gilded Goose Luxury Picnics. This little dream of mine was born from a love of meaningful moments — the kind that linger long after the last bite of cake is gone or the sun dips below the trees. After years of coordinating schedules, events, and lives in fast-paced environments, I realized something: what we all crave most is time to slow down, connect, and feel a little magic in the everyday. Gilded Goose is my way of bringing beauty, intention, and a bit of whimsy to life’s simple joys. Whether you’re celebrating love, friendship, milestones, or just the sunshine, I’m here to make your experience unforgettable — without the stress. Thank you for trusting me to be a part of your memories. I can’t wait to help you create something truly special.


With gratitude and golden vibes, 

Amy Merritt
