Things To Do
The Joinery
Small food hall in the center of Downtown Lakeland. Downtown Lakeland is a treasure, quaint, and easy to lose yourself in the charm. Lakeland is about 20 minutes from our venue, and it's where we recommend you stay and spend time.
Downtown Winter Haven Historic District
Our venue is located in the smallest of main streets, right in the middle of the state. Cute microbreweries and pizzerias, some good BBQ around, and plenty of wildlife in any of the nearby lakes.
Bonnet Springs Park
Bonnet Springs is great for everyone. It's a LOT of walking, but this was our original venue for the wedding and for good reason. We took a trip here to walk the canopy walk and found so much more....a butterfly house, a hydroponic garden, small moving creeks and boathouses. Great for kids, slides built in to the sides of hills, a Children's museum on site, a snack bar, and some water to splash around in. Beautiful in October and great if you just want a breath of fresh air.
Ybor City Historic District
Ybor City is known mostly for its debauchery, which is why we had our first date here. A little further from Winter Haven, but great nightlife and a deep history. If you make a day of it, head over to Sparkmans Wharf, an outdoor food court on the water near the cruise ships. Bars, food stands, stores, and restaurants.
LEGOLAND® Florida Resort
Fifteen minutes from the venue and a better alternative to Disney.
