Check out the Third Ward for a great shopping experience (the Retique Store is an upscale thrift shop!) and stop at The Wicked Hop for a pint, or head to Cafe Benelux for good foods and beers.
A fun day trip with your littles or as a couple!
A cute winery with wine tastings/by the glass, and they also distill their own alcohol. Food is there as well. They have outdoor seating and music on the weekends.
Take a stroll on the lakewalk downtown. Check out Marquette University, the bride's old stomping grounds. Stop at Sobleman's (downtown on St. Paul St.) for a great greasy burger and stacked bloody mary - the bride's downfall in college.
Go tour this amazing, beautiful, exquisite Basilica, nestled back in the country.
