Favorite Places
Sedona
If you're planning an extended stay, we hope you'll spend some time in Sedona! It's about 45 south of Flagstaff, and is known for its gorgeous red rock plateaus and mountains. Fun Fact: we took our engagement photos in Sedona!
Grand Canyon
The South Rim of The Grand Canyon is less than an hour and a half drive from Flagstaff! If you're planning an extended stay in Flagstaff the week of the wedding, this makes for a great day trip! Bucket list!
Tourist Home
One of our favorite restaurants in downtown, Tourist Home has a coffee bar, beer and wine options, and offers a great brunch, lunch and dinner as the name suggests! Definitely check out their bakery items in the front, especially for those with food allergies - they have a selection of delicious vegan and gluten-free treats!
Historic Brewing
Historic is a favorite stop on a brewery tour, they offer a great selection of craft beers (and a couple of wines) in a great location! Both indoor and some outdoor seating.
Brix
A great dinner spot with seasonal ingredients. They take reservations, so book a spot on OpenTable in advance to get a table! Charming patio for summer nights.
Mother Road
Flagstaff is known for it's great breweries, and one of Brad Anderson’s favorite places is Mother Road! Their taproom and outdoor area make for a perfect spot on a sunny afternoon. If you’re hungry the fabulous “Pizzacletta” next door takes orders.
Aspen Place at The Sawmill
Shopping locale outside of the historic downtown with dining, grocery (Whole Foods), drinks and shopping. A short drive from Pine Canyon.

If you’re looking for a fun challenge try the adventure course and zip line high up in the trees. If you're interested, sign up in advance on the website or give them a call to secure your spot! Fun for groups!
