Jessica & Alec

Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Jessica Burkhart and Alec Krueger

We’re so excited for you to explore Springfield, Missouri, a city that has become such a special part of our story. We’ve gathered our favorite places—restaurants we love, hidden gems, and a few “His & Hers” meal recommendations—to help you enjoy it the way we do. Our very first date was on Friday, February 17, 2023, when we visited Gailey’s Breakfast Café, grabbed coffee at Mudhouse, and wandered hand-in-hand through downtown Springfield. Since then, we’ve fallen in love not just with each other, but with this wonderful city. Friday, July 25, 2024, when we got engaged in Nathanael Greene Park, right in the beautiful Mizumoto Stroll Garden. We hope you experience the charm, warmth, and simple joys of the place where our love grew— and that you come to love it just as much as we do.
