What isn't there to do here? Movie theaters, shopping, restaurants, and sports bars, you could spend all day here. Sarah and Giovanni love spending time at Dave & Busters for some classic arcade entertainment. AMC Theaters is in the plaza for a good flick, and afterwards try out Crumbl Cookies. If you've got a sweet tooth like the bride-to-be, this is the place for you. If you're looking for a fun atmosphere and a good meal, try out Salt Tacos ỹ Tequila.
For a taste of the couples' history, try out Firebirds. This is the restaurant Sarah was working at when she and Giovanni began their relationship. Sarah recommends their signature drink, the Double Black Diamond. Careful- there is a limit on these for a reason!
If you grew up in Peoria, you grew up at this mall. Sarah will always hit Q, a fashion retailer, The Puppy Palace, and now she loves shopping around in Carter’s. Giovanni will maybe make a pit stop at Game Stop while following Sarah around. On Saturdays from 9a-1p, you can find a farmers market outside Dillards in the top parking lot!
Recently opened in Arrowhead and close to ‘home’, hit the couples go-to date night spot. Seriously. It's worth the trip. Sarah obsessively orders the Monte Cristo with a side of mac & cheese. If she's lucky, Giovanni will let her order the Santa Fe Spinach Dip for an appetizer. Giovanni mixes up his order, though he recommends the steak or the salmon! To drink, the couple recommends the Cheddar's Painkiller or the Texas Margarita.
Below is a list of additional places to eat and things to do! • Visit the Japanese Friendship Garden downtown • While downtown, Sarah recommends visiting the Space Center. She also suggests bringing her along. • Enjoy a designer coffee at Daily Drip in Glendale • Enjoy a latte and some yummy snacks at Driftwood Coffee Co., just a block away from the wedding venue! • Really feeling the love? Head to the Scottsdale Civic Center Plaza and find the LOVE statue! While you’re there, enjoy restaurants, art museums, fountains, and grassy areas for a nice picnic or for your furry friend.
