Thank you so much for the beautiful oak serving board! We can’t wait to use it during the many dinner parties you’ll be invited to this winter. Looking forward to celebrating with you at our wedding!

For a kitchen gift you received before your wedding

How did you know we were dreaming of those crystal champagne flutes?! They’re by far the most beautiful glasses in our home and we’ve never felt fancier. You’ll have to come over soon so we can toast to you! So excited to see you in June.

For drinkware you received before your wedding

We had a blast dancing the night away with you at our wedding. We also can’t thank you enough for the espresso maker. Our mornings have never been brighter! We can’t wait to see you in Austin next month… all caffeinated up!

For a coffee gift you received after your wedding

Where have you been hiding those killer dance moves? Thank you so much for rocking out at our wedding. And we absolutely love our new cast iron skillet and cookbook! We’re already cooking up a storm. Hope to see you soon in New York!

For cookware you received after your wedding

Thank you so much for the beer-brewing kit! We hope to be sipping backyard IPAs with you in no time. We missed you at the wedding, but know you were there in spirit. Can’t wait to see you when we’re back from our honeymoon!

Lauren & Luke

We LOVE bragging about Cincinnati. It was hard to narrow it down, but here are some of our favorite spots to relax, eat, and drink!

This open air market is one of the oldest existing markets in the country! Our favorites are The Rhined cheese and wine shop, Gourmet Popcorn, Olive Tree Catering for great Syrian food, and the Empanada Box pop-up.

Findlay Market

Right down the street from Lauren's old apartment, this park has stunning views of the river on one end and leads to the Cincinnati Art Museum via the new staircase on the other.

Eden Park

This great park in the center of Over the Rhine has an outdoor bar and plenty of shady spots to relax and enjoy a drink!

Washington Park

This park is within walking distance from Lytle Park Hotel. You can find great views of the river, the Roebling Bridge, and there are bars and restaurants nearby in the Banks.

Smale Riverfront Park

We eat here every Friday for lunch! A must for any Cincinnati newcomer. There is a location right down the street from the Lytle Hotel on Fourth Street as well as on the corner Vine St. and Seventh St.

Skyline Chili

Instead of sitting down somewhere for brunch, pick up some of the best pastries in town and walk over to Washington Park to enjoy them!

Brown Bear Bakery

Nicola's has the best Italian food in town. Make sure you get gnocchi and don't skip the bread basket!

Nicola's

One of our favorite restaurants in the city! They have a casual atmosphere, great wine, and delicous seasonal dishes.

Salazar Restaurant

The best place for burnt ends in a walkable residential corner of the city.

Lucius Q

Cross the river into Luke's old stomping grounds to try out this fantastic spot for brunch, lunch, or dinner.

Otto's

Our favorite bar in the city! When visiting this neighborhood haunt, see if you can spot the picture of Lauren hanging behind the bar.

rhinehaus

We won't give away too much about this "secret spot" that's located five stories below Vine Street in an old beer tunnel.

Ghost Baby

This neighborhood watering hole is a happy, bright place to enjoy a unique cocktail. They have a great rotating menu, too!

Homemakers Bar

This little bar on the corner of the park has great drinks and a casual, upbeat vibe.

Cobblestone OTR

Lauren worked here for three years when she moved to Cincinnati! Check out this restored historic train station for its exemplary art deco architecture, rotating exhibits, or OMNIMAX movie theater!

Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal

This illuminating museum showcases Cincinnati's unique history as a northern city that sat on the Mason-Dixon line - the Ohio River.
