Things To Do
Echo Canyon Trailhead, Camelback Mountain Hike
Annie's weekly Friday morning hike! Not for the faint of heart - this hike is a cardio challenge, gaining 1,200+ ft of elevation in just 1.25 miles. Steep, challenging, but very fun (for the crazies like Annie).
Tom's Thumb Trailhead
A challenging 4-mile out-and-back hike with over 1,200 feet of elevation gain, leading to a summit rock that resembles a giant thumb. The trail offers sweeping views of the McDowell Mountains and Sonoran Desert and is close to the wedding venue!
Pinnacle Peak Park
Pinnacle offers a moderate 3.5-4 mile hike, right next to the Four Seasons property! Still a steep hike, where you will gain over 1,000 ft of elevation at a more moderate pace. Pinnacle Peak mountain will be in the background for the wedding festivities!
Lost Dog Wash Trailhead
Lost Dog Wash Trail to Ringtail Trail loop is an easy-moderate 4-mile loop. There are many easy-moderate trails in this preserve with gorgeous desert views.
Olive & Ivy
One of Annie's favorite restaurants in Scottsdale! Olive & Ivy is a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant and marketplace in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale with a scenic waterfront patio, vibrant cuisine, and upscale yet relaxed ambiance.
etta Scottsdale Quarter
One of Grant's favorite restaurants in Scottsdale! Etta is a lively, wood-fired Italian restaurant known for its vibrant ambiance and inventive seasonal dishes, serving both brunch and dinner.
OBON Sushi Bar Ramen
A date night staple for Annie & Grant! Obon is a modern Japanese-Korean fusion eatery known for its fresh sushi, flavorful ramen, and creative cocktails served in a stylish, cozy atmosphere.
Press Coffee - Scottsdale Quarter
Annie & Grant's favorite coffee shop! Lots of locations around Scottsdale offering the best espresso drinks and yummy breakfast sandwiches for a quick bite. The couples go-to order is an iced latte with almond milk and a southwest burrito!
Zipps Sports Grill
The couple's sports bar of choice for great wings, Philly focaccia, light beers, and darts! Lots of locations around Scottsdale.
Old Town Scottsdale Farmers Market
A frequent spot on a Saturday morning! From fresh breads and pastries to local fruit and veggies to fresh-made paella, Annie and Grant frequent the Old Town Farmers market for an adventure and local groceries (and maybe a treat!). Pop by if you're looking for an activity Saturday before the festivities - it's open through the winter!
