Things To Do
Richmond Folk Festival
The Richmond Folk Festival will return to celebrate its 21st anniversary our wedding weekend. The festival has become one of Virginia’s largest, drawing fans each year to downtown Richmond’s riverfront to celebrate the roots, richness, and variety of American culture through music, dance, traditional crafts, storytelling, and food. Such a fun event!
Virginia Museum of Fine Arts
A stunning museum with impressive collections, including Faberge eggs and modern art. Walk around the sculpture garden (where we got engaged!) for pretty views and more art.
Carytown
A colorful shopping district with fun boutiques, local restaurants, and the historic Byrd Theatre. Some of our favorites there include a great bagel spot (Chewy’s), pizza (Mellow Mushroom), Thai restaurant (Mom Siam’s), date night (Can Can), and candy store (For the Love of Chocolate).
Hollywood Cemetery
Perfect free and spooky October date. The most famous cemetery in RVA. It is the final resting place of many notable celebs including 2 US presidents, James Monroe and John Tyler and Confederate President Jefferson Davis. Also home to an urban legend - the Richmond vampire, W.W. Pool. 👻
Scott's Addition Historic District
The ultimate walkable brewery crawl including awesome restaurants like Taza Kitchen, ZZQ, and Moore Street Cafe.
