Things To Do
Homestead Creamery
This place has makes their own milk (Jack drinks a gallon of chocolate milk from here once a week) and has great ice cream!
Bridgewater Plaza
This plaza has a variety of things to do! Mangos and Moosies is one of the brides favorite places. The plaza also has a pizza and ice cream shop. There is also a put put golf course for all of our competitive guest.
Mill Mountain Star
The future Leersnyders have enjoyed many trail walks and picnics here. We enjoy stopping at Blue Cow at the bottom and grabbing our favorite ice cream to enjoy at the top of the mountain over looking Roanoke. The star at the top of the mountain is a must see a night all lite up!
Blue Cow Ice Cream Co.
This is our favorite ice cream in Roanoke!
Sweet Donkey Coffee
This is one of our favorite places to get a coffee and sit outside to talk.
Cellō coffee house & cafe
This is a new find for the future Leersnyders. Jack loves the Turkish coffee while Delaney has found her favorite iced chai latte. Cello also has a very good chicken shawarma we love to share!
Downtown Roanoke
Down town Roanoke holds many memories for the future Leersnyders. There are a ton of places to eat like our favorite brunch place, scrambled (the manmosas are a must), three notch'd is one of our favorite breweries, and 202 is one of our favorite dinner spots. There is so much more to explore down there such as other shops and restaurants.
Twin Creeks Distillery
You can't have a Franklin County wedding without a spot to get moonshine from the moonshine capital of the world! This place is amazing and always has delicious seasonal drinks!
The Whole Bean Coffeehouse
Whole bean is a kiwi run coffee shop in the heart of Franklin County. All of their drink and food choices are amazing! The owners are so much fun to talk to and love seeing other kiwi's in the area!
Napoli Cowboy
This restaurant is super close to the venue and has great food and drinks.
Anastasia's Speakeasy
Anastasia holds lots of memories, we love to stop in and grab a drink whenever we are in town. Jack loves the smoked old fashion while Delaney opts for an espresso martini or seasonal drink.
Carvins Cove Reservoir
This is a great train to follow that brings you out to a beautiful lake!
McAfee Knob
Fun fact, this is where Delaney thought Jack was going to propose to her. After the proposal she found out Jack was going to do it here but was talked out of by her maid of honor (Brooklin) and other coworkers because Delaney would have been sweaty and made at the pictures later on.
Dragons Tooth Trail Head
This is another beautiful hike we have done, it is definitely worth the views.
