Looking to explore a little more of Texas during your visit? The Round Top Antiques Show happens to be taking place the same weekend as our wedding. Just a short drive from Austin, Round Top is famous for its antique markets, boutiques, food, and small-town charm. It's a uniquely Texan experience and a great way to spend an afternoon if you're arriving early or staying a bit longer!
The Comal River is just a short 45-minute drive from Austin and is one of Central Texas' favorite destinations. While temperatures can still be quite warm through October, you may enjoy spending an afternoon floating the river—it's a great way to relax and unwind after a busy wedding weekend!
Stay the weekend and head out to Fredericksburg — just about 50 minutes outside of Austin. Known as the heart of Texas wine country, it’s the perfect spot to sip local wines, stroll the charming downtown, and soak in Hill Country views.
