Aurora & Cameron
Things To Do
Gilcrease Orchard
The go-to Vegas orchard close to our wedding venue! This is a great spot for your fall pumpkin patch visit, and you can buy their produce on site. Apple cider, anyone?
Aspire Coffee House
Our go-to coffee shop near our wedding venue. Lots of seating, live music on Fridays 6-8pm, organic house-made ingredients.
Coffee Religion
Another coffee shop near our wedding venue. Located on a cute street with local shops and a cool atmosphere. Maple Reeves, Purple Rain and Vietnamese Styled Iced Coffee are just a few of their signature drinks.
Omelette Cafe Skye Canyon
Great breakfast place near our venue. You have to try their spuds, pumpkin bread, Aurora's favorite veggie skillet, or the cannoli cakes!
BabyStacks Cafe (Centennial)
Amazing breakfast and brunch spot near our venue! Their pancakes are to die for. Try Cameron's favorite, Banana Foster pancakes, or Aurora's fav, Mocha Chip pancakes.
In-N-Out Burger
Check out what all the hype is about if you're from the East Coast! Also near our venue.
Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers
Another favorite West Coast fast food chain near our venue!
Meráki Greek Grill
Great quality casual Greek food not too far from our venue!
Mount Charleston
The best escape from the desert landscape. Check for road closures as there has been some bad flooding recently. Great views, picnic areas, trails, and hikes. Aurora's favs - the lower and upper Bristlecones trails, and the MaryJane Falls hike!
Red Spring Boardwalk Trail
Calico Basin - If you want to get out in nature near Red Rock, but you're not up for a whole hike, this boardwalk trail is the spot! It has free entry and parking and is very picturesque. (If you drive a little further past this area, you will arrive at Red Rock Canyon!)
Downtown Summerlin
Lot of nice shopping and restaurants, and an overall a cute area to hang out, like an outdoor mall. About 20 min away from our venue, away form the Strip and near Red Rock!
Public School 702
Fun gastropub and restaurant in Downtown Summerlin (an outdoor mall), surrounded by other nice restaurants and shopping!
Fergusons Downtown
My favorite hangout spot downtown (about 20/25min from our venue). Mothership Coffee, local shops and great outdoor seating! Shops are open Mon-Wed 8a-5p and Thur-Sun 8a-12am, with a fun events like markets and live music! This is walking distance from the Fremont Street Experience, Container Park, and PublicUs (another great coffee shop). Parking available on the street or behind PublicUs.
The Laundry Room
A tiny, quiet 1920's themed speakeasy located in the walls of CommonWealth on Fremont Street. Reservation required. (Commonwealth is also fun for a night of dancing!) 21+
ReBAR
A go-to bar! Located in the downtown arts district on Main St. Very eclectic, dive bar feel, complete with board games and a huge back patio where they put on events. 21+
The Writer's Block
For all the bookstore lovers! This one is a treat. Located in the downtown area. Has some seating and a coffee shop inside.
Esther's Kitchen
Gourmet Italian restaurant - great for a fancy night out downtown! The food is crazy good. They get busy, so a reservation is a good idea. Anyone down for some sweet Butternut Squash Tortellini?
Tacotarian
A cute, casual vegan taco shop in the downtown arts district! Meat-eaters: it is so good, you won't miss anything!
The Mob Museum
Learn about the origins of Vegas at this hot spot in the downtown area! Also has an underground speakeasy.
Dona Maria Tamales Restaurant
Best tamales in Vegas for sure. And the best margaritas. A family fav for the Esquibel's.
The Golden Tiki
One of our favorite bars to go on a night out! Fun 50's hawaiian luau theme with great cocktails and atmosphere in China town (about 30min from our venue). Highly recommend making a reservation here- it gets crazy busy! 21+
Gäbi Coffee & Bakery
This cafe is magical! Probably the prettiest I've seen, and 5 star atmosphere. I like ordering a pot of tea with a couple friends here, but they also have great coffee, pastries, and light food. Located in China town (about 30min from our venue).
AREA15
Immersive museum type place with several different exhibits and activities (highly recommend the Omega Mart exhibit). Near the Strip.
