Things To Do
Georgia Institute of Technology
We are both Yellow Jackets, and our wedding venue is even owned by GT! Our fave campus spots are: 1. Scheller College of Business: Ash's undergrad & Chase's Master (right next to the hotel) 2. Tech Tower (featured pic) & Cherry St: Prettiest spot on campus. 3. Tech Green: Center of campus. Our famous tailgating spot where we celebrated our engagement is in front of the Bunger-Henry building, facing the green (fun fact: this spot has been staked out by groom's party Ethan Sailers' family since '85! Thanks Big Ethan & Holly!!) 4. Keneda Building: Gardens next door are where Chase proposed (also, a fully sustainable building, so very neat in general). 5. CRC: Sight of the Atlanta 1996 swimming & diving Olympics & Ash's Master's team pool 6. Sigma Phi Epsilon & Alpha Chi Omega: Chase & Ash's fraternity & sorority

Atlanta Beltline Eastside Trail
Walking path around the city of Atlanta! If you type the address above, you'll see the full route. If you want a longer walk, we recommend starting in Piedmont Park and entering at the corner of 10th & Monroe (Park Tavern in maps), or you can walk straight down 8th and cut behind the Trader Joe's. There's bars, restaurants, and more! Our three favorite areas are the next few entries.
