If you are looking for some fun activities to do before the big day the North Carolina State Farmers market is a great way to spend a couple of hours! Whether you are looking for fresh produce, flowers, or would like some new pumpkins and mums for the season, this is certainly a fun place to stroll for a couple of hours.
If you are a lover of southern food and bourbon (who isn't?!), the Oak Scratch Kitchen + Bourbon Bar is a great place to check out while in town! This place has a cozy ambiance that perfectly compliments this fall season -- along with it's incredible Southern Fusion food and World-Class Bourbon selections. If you are like me, constantly battling between sticking to the classic vs. trying something adventurous, I would personally recommend an Old Fashioned, and ask the bartender to get creative with the wide variety of bitters that they have-- a perfect twist on an unforgettable classic cocktail!
Chris and I have frequented Morgan Street Food Hall several times with friends + family. Whether you are looking for some lively night life, or a lunch with the whole family, this place will leave everyone pleased! In the heart of downtown Raleigh, it is the perfect spot to hit up when no one can decide on what to eat! From Pizza, Cajun Seafood, Tamales, to Burgers -- this place has it all!
