Hotel
This hotel is in downtown Evansville, within walking distance of our rehearsal dinner and the wedding venue! Its also walking distance from some of our favorite places - coffee shops, arcade bars, Insomnia cookies and the riverfront. This link is for a discount on the room rate, but the Hyatt does not offer rooms blocks. The earlier you book this hotel the cheaper it will be!

Flight
A lot of people think a direct flight to Indianapolis or Louisville will be easier than flying to Evansville, but we actually love using the Evansville airport! There are daily connections to Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta and Charlotte, which usually means within the US you can connect to Evansville with 1 layover. This airport is also very quick to get in and out of! An uber from the airport to the downtown will usually be about a 15 minute trip for $20
We went to River Kitty on our first date! It holds a special place in our hearts, and its always fun to go see what the kitties are up to. You pay to get into the petting room, but that money is donated to the local humane society - totally worth it!
Take a picture while you are out for a walk in this cute little alley, decorated with well known and loved murals representing our little city!
Parlor Doughnuts started as a small local business and now they have over 100 locations and are still growing! The downtown Evansville location is the flagship store. We love the breakfast tacos, the Sandy Beach donut and especially their iced coffee!
This is another great coffee stop downtown! This shop is all about supporting local businesses. They have some great local goods and really delicious lattes (try the Ube!). If you are looking for a T shirt to brag about visiting Evansville Indiana, this is where you will find it :)
We are lucky to have 2 arcade bars within walking distance of each other in Downtown Evansville! High score is our favorite. Most of the classic arcade game are free to play, but you might bring a few dollars for ski ball, guitar hero, or Hannah's personal favorite - the Pokemon claw machine. If you need a late night snack the tots are amazing!
We love Arcademie, especially for the multiplayer packman and Crazy Taxi! Skiball and the pinball machines are also free here (not like High Score). If you venture upstairs they have a lounge with a specialty drinks menu
We have enjoyed many walks along the Evansville Riverfront! If you are staying downtown there are crosswalks to the Riverfront path, or if you need parking head to the Evansville Museum and you will find plenty of spaces! Walk past the playground and skate park to find some nice swings with a view
Head to Bally's if you are in the mood for some gambling! This is still on our date night bucketlist but its popular with visitors!
