Just 15 minutes north of Iowa City- Big Grove Solon holds a special place in our hearts. We came here for our first date and enjoyed our favorites: mac n’ cheese and pizza.
Spend an afternoon browsing the area’s cutest and most unique shops, including Jen’s personal favorites, The Shop Iowa City and Moss.
Best mac n' cheese this side of the Mississippi! Their rooftop is pretty cool, too.
Across the river from Iowa City - Coral Ridge Mall is the main shopping hub in the area.
Known for their pizza!
Adjacent to our reception space, Rapid Creek Cidery, Wilson’s Orchard is the corridor’s go-to for apple picking and fall family photos!
We would venture just down the road from our old condo to get our Mexican fix at Fiesta.
Big Grove’s Iowa City location provides a social atmosphere for those out on the town with its live music, shuffle boards, ping pong tables, and large outdoor patio.
Jen's sushi staple throughout her college years and several years after. Try the Liberty Bell roll!
