Sarah & Andrew
Things To Do
The Cellar
A great place for dinner!
Gillie's Inc
We love their brunch!
Souvlaki
My first (and favorite!) gyro. Inexpensive Greek offerings and great cheesesteaks.
Frosty Parrot Frozen Treats
The frozen yogurt is to die for!
Benny Marzano's
Home of the Virginia Slice - it takes up two paper plates! Inexpensive and filling pizza.
Mellow Mushroom
Best known for their excellent craft pizzas and having 52 beers on tap! A little on the more expensive side, but well worth it.
El Rodeo
One of my favorite restaurants. Authentic Mexican food.
Bull & Bones Brewhaus
Bull and Bones is where Andrew and I ate with Santerra and Charles before we went to Ring Dance. It has everything that you'd expect from an upper-class steakhouse.
Paint N' Fun
Andrew and I have painted so many things here it's ridiculous. A great place for those who have kids and want to occupy them before or after the wedding! (Or adults who want another memento from the wedding weekend!)
Lyric Theatre
Pre-Ring Dance, our class offered showings of The Great Gatsby here, so Andrew and I went! Great place for an inexpensive movie.
t.r. collection
I love TR Collection! A local shop with lots of unique items, both Virginia Tech-related and not, that you won't find in any other store.
Blacksburg Farmers Market & Market Square Park
Want to grab a bite before the wedding? The Blacksburg Farmer's Market is the place to go! Check here for local fruits and veggies, meat, honey, snacks, and handcrafted goods.
Hahn Horticulture Garden
Hahn Garden is a beautiful campus-run oasis where many of our engagement photos were taken. A classic spot to relax, learn about plants and horticulture, and take walks.
Duck Pond at Virginia Tech
A perfect place to picnic, the duck pond has picnic tables, park benches and a gazebo. It is located next to the Solitude House, Virginia Tech's oldest building, and it marks the site of the Draper Meadow Settlement and massacre of 1755.
Historic Smithfield Plantation
Smithfield is a gorgeous plantation-style home that once housed a Civil War colonel and his family. Take a walk around the grounds and visit the plantation house; tours are only $5!
Lane Stadium
Not to be missed. Just do it.
New River Junction
Is it a little hot for your taste? Grab your swimsuit and float down the New River in giant inner-tubes! Fun for the whole family.
Beliveau Estate Winery
Looking for something a little more upscale? Try Beliveau Estate Winery, the closest winery to Virginia Tech.
Plantation Road Livestock Facilities
Visit the animal science livestock facilities and learn more about where your food comes from! Visitors are welcome to wander through the barns (except the swine barn) as long as you don't enter the animal holding pens. If there are employees there when you visit, they will be happy to give you a tour and tell you about what goes on in Virginia's only animal science program! See sheep, cattle, horses, and more, and see where I spent most of my time during my tenure at Tech!
Museum of Geosciences
A museum room at Virginia Tech exhibiting fossils, minerals & a cast of a dinosaur skeleton.
