Tia's alma mater. GO DEVILS
Dustin's alma mater. GO PACK
This was one of our favorite places to walk our dogs. If you're looking for a trail to walk/run this is a good option!
Opening soon at Dorthea Dix Park is the Gipson Play Plaza which will be the largest adventure playground in the Southeast. The exact opening date has not been released yet. Hopefully it will be open by wedding weekend, but if not Dorothea Dix is a great attraction itself!
See beautiful art installations while taking a walk!
Dustin picked Tia up from Cornerstone Tavern for our first "date". If you're looking for a night on the town, Glenwood has no shortage of bars to choose from. Just know that there may also be a lot of college-aged people there.
This is a trendy area with lots of shopping options, restaurants, and bars. This is the area where one of the hotels is located!
There are lots of restaurant and bar options here as well. Moore Square is a nice public park in the area.
If you want to try a local beer, Trophy is one of the best in the area!
Tia spent WAY too many of her nights in undergrad at this lovely establishment (ask her Duke friends). While she certainly wouldn't be able to hang with the youngins these days, she had to put it up here out of pure nostalgia. Lucky for you the semester will be over making the club way less crowded than normal. Take a drive by to see where Tia willingly spent around $40 a month to be pushed, stepped on, and occasionally accosted by petty UNC basketball fans. Fun fact: Dustin went to Shooters once during college on a Saturday night. Little did he know his future wife was likely in that very same space on that very same day...
