Kristina & Michael
Things To Do
The Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk
Favorite field trip destination of Kristina when growing up, and she still loves it! Check out otters, jellyfish, turtles, seals, touch tanks, sharks (yuck) and special exhibits! Explore SoNo after!
Calf Pasture Beach
The beach us Norwalk-ians love! You may need to buy a pass for your car, but worth it for relaxing by the lovely calm water of the Long Island Sound :)
Lockwood Mathews
A very old mansion that is a historical landmark! Movies have been filmed there! Check out tours if they are available!
Gallaher Mansion and Cranbury Park
Gorgeous park with hiking trails and a mansion onsite! Where our Wedding Planner Emily got engaged :)
Hummock Island
Go on their oyster tour! Mike's brother and Best Man, John, gifted us this tour as an engagement present and we loved it! Be sure to bring your own beverages and mignonette!
The SoNo Collection
New mall with a Nordstrom and Bloomingdales!
Main Street
Tons of shopping! Also such a beautiful area and close to venue! If you need a last minute something, like makeup or new shoes before the wedding, this is your best bet!

[solidcore]
An incredibly challenging reformer workout with you guessed it... a core focus! Kristina did this class virtually during quarantine which helped her sanity and being able to fit into her wedding dress. This class is actually relatively easy to do with a mask on! Highly recommend :)
