Things To Do
Grand Lake Kitchen - Dimond
This is where we went on our first date on Sunday, October 22, 2023
Stoneridge Shopping Center
We have been here many times, it also includes the Cheesecake Factory and PF Changs. This mall is about 15 minutes from the wedding venue.
Oakland Zoo
We enjoyed time here in the summer of 2024 and wore matching shirts.
Wente Family Vineyards Tasting Lounge
This is a beautiful space where two very special people in our wedding party got married.
Lake Merritt
Get your steps in walking around the lake! This is close to downtown Oakland. Erica spent a lot of time here exercising around the lake! Be prepared, walking the entire lake is about 3 miles!
San Francisco Premium Outlets
If you didn't know, Erica LOVES to shop! Lots of great outlets stores! Pro Tip: Get here early - the place gets packed quickly!
Museum of the African Diaspora
A three story building, self-guided tour, highly recommend by Erica and Phillip!
Da Boccery
We went axe throwing here! Phillip was an instant star. Erica could not land a single hit. Da Boccery also have other game and food options. It's about a mile from the venue!
Broadway Plaza Walnut Creek
Another stop on Erica's grand tour of shopping! This outdoor shopping center is in the opposite direction of the venue, but a lovely place to visit!
