We chose the hotels to be at The Domain as it's a hot spot of restaurants, shops, and bars/clubs. We will also likely be having brunch at one of their fun restaurants the morning after the wedding...stay tuned for those plans!
There are endless things to do at Zilker Park if you're the outdoorsy type!
If you want to really party downtown, we highly recommend Rainey Street. We've been there in our pre-Marley days and had a blast!! The famous 6th street has gotten pretty sketchy and dangerous unfortunately as just a heads up!
If you feel like visiting Texas' Capitol building, the building's exterior and interior are beautiful, and you can do a self guided tour.
