For those looking to enjoy the outdoors on the morning of our wedding, we recommend a visit to Shaver Lake located just 45 minutes - 1 hour from Fresno. Rent a boat and/or jet skis. The surrounding trails are perfect for hiking!
These adjacent national parks just east of Fresno are home to sequoia trees, scenic mountain vistas, and wildlife. Popular hiking trails include the General Grant Tree Trail and the Moro Rock staircase.
A series of subterranean structures built by Baldassare Forestiere, an immigrant from Sicily, over a period of 40 years from 1906 to his death in 1946. The site has been featured in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, AAA Via Magazine, Sunset Magazine, Enjoy Magazine and on HGTV’s Xtreme Gardens.
This 300-acre park has beautiful gardens, ponds, a Japanese garden, etc. It's a great spot for a relaxing walk, especially for those bringing their little ones along for the weekend!
Alyssa's family's favorite shopping center with food, drinks, shopping, etc. Check out Harry's Bagels while you're at it!
Seasonal farm-to-table meals with veggie options. Very casual and great for kids. Alyssa comes here almost every time she's in town.
Rustic Italian dishes like wood-fired pizza in a contemporary, open space with a full bar. The restaurant is adjacent to the space we'll be hosting the welcome party Friday night!
Handcrafted pizzas with ingredients sourced from local farmers and a full bar. Alyssa's suggests the salumi sandwich if you're looking for something grab-and-go!
Napa Valley meets Mexico City. Need we say more? Incredible food & drinks. You won't feel like you're in Fresno.
GREAT coffee, brunch items, salads, sandwiches, etc.
