Love mountains and beer? We have the perfect place for you! Turn our wedding weekend into a little vacation by driving west only 3.5 hours to Asheville. Our favorite breweries in Asheville are Catawba Brewing Company, New Belgium, and Burial Brewing. There are beautiful waterfalls and hikes, one of our favorites is hiking to Catawba Falls located in Pisgah National Forest.
Downtown Raleigh has great restaurants and bars. A couple of our favorite spots are MOFU Shoppe, Raleigh Beer Garden, and 42nd Street Oyster Bar.
