Visit a winery
Just over an hour drive from Richmond is Charlottesville, home of SO MANY wineries. Our favorites include Jefferson Vineyards, King Family, Gabriele Rausse, and Pippin Hill!
Virginia Beach
A soft spot for us because this is where John proposed! Explore great restaurants, the boardwalk, and of course, the beach!
Monument Avenue
Take a drive down Monument Avenue to see where statues of Confederate leaders used to stand until earlier this year, and where Alanna was nearly hit with unlawful tear gas by Richmond police!
