Things To Do
La Encantada
La Encantada is an outdoor shopping mall with stores such as Anthropologie, M.A.C Cosmetics, Apple, Francesca's, and Johnny Bahama. There are also several restaurants located here, such as Firebirds, RA Sushi Bar, North Italia, and Blanco Tacos and Tequila.
First Watch
Stop in for breakfast or lunch - First Watch is a mile or so north of the venue!
Oro Valley Farmer's Market
The Farmer's Market occurs every Saturday from 8:00am-12:00pm.
Catalina State Park
Catalina State Park is just a few miles north of our venue. If you want to enjoy some of the southwest wilderness while you're in town, we highly recommend the state park. There are several trails to hike, ranging from easy to difficult.
Casas Adobes Plaza
If you're staying at La Posada while you're in town, Casas Adobes Plaza is a great spot for shopping and dining. Talbots, Starbucks, Orange Theory Fitness, and Wildflower Cafe are just a few of the businesses you'll find in the plaza.
Mount Lemmon
This recommendation is for those of you that will be in town for more than just the wedding weekend. The drive to the very top of Mount Lemmon is about an hour and a half, but it's so worth the drive. If you don't want to commit to the entire drive, there are plenty of lookout pull-offs and hiking trails as you ascend the mountain. Mount Lemmon is usually considerably cooler in temperature than Tucson and it looks a lot like rural PA due to the elevation.
