Colorado Adventures
Garden of the Gods Visitor and Nature Center
One of Colorado's most unique and beautiful parks. So beautiful, in fact, we had our engagement shots done there! Located in Colorado Springs, it's about an hour and a half south of Denver.
Rocky Mountain National Park
If you're looking to get in a hike or two while you're here, RMNP is home to beautiful lakes, trails and wildlife and is only about an hour and a half west of the city.
Denver Botanic Gardens
One of the first places we checked out when we moved to Denver! A beautiful city garden that should be especially full and lush in June.
Denver Art Museum
Full disclosure: we haven't actually made it here yet... but we have heard incredible reviews from friends!
Larimer Square
We lived just a few blocks from Larimer Square, in the city's historic district, our first year in Denver. It's home to lots of great restaurants, bars, and shops and is a fun place to hang in the city.
RiNo Art District
Denver's creative art district has all of the trendiest spots to check out. Aside from art shops and galleries, there are brunch, lunch, and day-drinking options aplenty.
Tattered Cover McGregor Square
For my fellow book lovers... we've spent hours browsing Tattered's shelves and it's one of our favorite spots downtown.
Dairy Block
One of Denver's many food halls located downtown that is home to some great coffee shops, ice cream shops, restaurants and more.
The Wolf's Tailor
One of Bon Appétit's Hot 10: America's Best New Restaurants of 2019. We celebrated Ali's 24th birthday here, and if you're looking for an upscale, creative dining experience we highly recommend!
Crooked Stave Friends & Family Taproom
One of our favorite local breweries. Cheers!
