Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Courtney Vail and Eric Bromenshenkel
The Big Sur coastline is iconic! Make sure you book some time on either end of our celebration to enjoy what Carmel and the central coast of California has to offer. Some ideas: Hit the links at Pebble Beach. Explore the seaside town of Monterey, including the incredible Monterey Bay Aquarium. Go wine tasting throughout Carmel Valley. Hike the numerous trails that connect the redwoods to the sea. Or simply stroll the charming streets of downtown Carmel-By-The-Sea.

Monterey Bay Aquarium

886 Cannery Row, Monterey, CA 93940
, 831-648-4800

Point Lobos State Natural Reserve

Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA 93923

The reserve is very close to the Carmel Mission Inn, and it is a must-see. The gentle sloping hike with stunning coastal views is perfect for everyone to enjoy!

Calla Lily Valley

Garrapata Trail, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA 93923

Can you guess what our wedding flowers are going to be? This is a stunning stop along your Big Sur journey!

Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park

52801 California 1, Big Sur, CA 93920
, 831-667-1112

Nepenthe

48510 California 1, Big Sur, CA 93920
, 831-667-2345

Another stop for amazing food, drinks and views to die for. The Phoenix Shop on premises will not disappoint!

Jade Cove

California 1, Big Sur, CA 93920

Notice the jewelry that Courtney and the bridesmaids are wearing? Look closely and you will see the green stone. We are told that you can find Big Sur Jade in this cove--if you are lucky! The best time to visit is low tide, but it is likely that prospectors have picked most of it over. But, for serious mineral hunters, this is where Big Sur jade can be found!

Moonstone Beach

Cambria, CA 93428
, 805-781-5930

If you can stay awhile and drive further south along Highway 1, you can find moonstones at this famed beach.
