Things To Do
Old Town Alexandria
This charming waterfront neighborhood is full of history, boutique shopping, art galleries, and amazing restaurants. Whether you're enjoying the scenic views along the Potomac, grabbing coffee at a cozy café, or visiting local landmarks like the Torpedo Factory or Chart House, there’s something here for everyone to love. Old Town also holds a special place in our hearts—this is where Drew proposed in December!
The Wharf DC
Located along the scenic Potomac River, The Wharf is one of DC’s most vibrant waterfront neighborhoods. With a mix of trendy restaurants, rooftop bars, music venues like The Anthem, boutique shops, and waterfront activities, there's something for everyone. Stroll along the boardwalk, catch a sunset cruise, or simply enjoy a cocktail with views of the water. Whether you're looking for a relaxing afternoon or lively nightlife, The Wharf is a perfect spot to explore during your stay.
Tysons Corner Center Mall
If you're in the mood for shopping, dining, or a bit of both, Tysons Corner is the place to be! Home to two major malls—Tysons Corner Center and Tysons Galleria—you’ll find everything from popular stores like Apple and Nordstrom to luxury name-brand designers such as Gucci, Chanel, and Louis Vuitton. The area also boasts a wide variety of restaurants ranging from quick bites to upscale dining, making it the perfect spot to explore, indulge, and unwind between wedding festivities.
National Harbor & MGM
Located just across the river, National Harbor is a lively waterfront destination filled with shops, restaurants, and entertainment. You can take a ride on the Capital Wheel for stunning views of the Potomac, stroll along the waterfront, or enjoy great dining and nightlife. For those feeling lucky (or just looking for fun), the MGM National Harbor offers a luxury casino, spa, and top-tier restaurants and shows. It’s the perfect spot for a fun afternoon or an exciting night out!
