Things To Do
The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden
If you are looking for a peaceful escape in the city, the Dallas Arboretum is one of the most beautiful spots in Dallas. With seasonal flowers, walking trails, and views of White Rock Lake, it's the perfect place to stroll, relax, and take in the scenery.
Perot Museum of Nature and Science
A favorite for kids and adults alike, the Perot Museum has hands-on exhibits, dinosaur fossils, and amazing science displays. Perfect for a family outing or anyone curious about the world.
Reunion Tower
For a true Dallas landmark, head to Reunion Tower! Known for its glowing ball on the skyline, it offers 360° views of the city from its observation deck. Think of it as the Texas version of the Seattle Space Needle!
American Airlines Center
The bride's favorite team, the Dallas Stars, play right in the heart of Dallas at the American Airlines Center. Cheering on the Stars has been one of her favorite pastimes, and hockey has become a fun part of their story together. Maybe if we are lucky, the Seattle Kraken will be in town for a fun rivalry game! (but GO STARS)
Cedar Ridge Preserve
For those who enjoy the outdoors, Cedar Ridge Preserve is a beautiful escape! With scenic hiking trails, wildflowers, and peaceful views, it's the perfect spot to experience a bit of Texas nature during your visit.
Fort Worth Stockyards
Step back into Texas history at the Stockyards in Fort Worth. You'll find daily cattle walks, western shops, live music, and even rodeos! It is about a 30-40 minute drive from Dallas, but worth it if you want the full Texas experience! Who knows, you may run into the bride and her bridal party while you are there!
Six Flags Over Texas
If you’re looking for something fun to do while you’re in town, Six Flags Over Texas is a spot you won’t want to miss! The bride loves roller coasters and would happily spend all day riding them, while the groom prefers to sit this one out entirely. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker or just along for the fun, it’s a great way to make a weekend out of your trip!
Terry Black's Barbecue
If you want to experience true Texas barbecue, Terry Black's is a must. Famous for their slow-cooked brisket, ribs, and all the classic sides, it's a spot where you'll want to come hungry! This is a Dallas favorite for a reason!
Twisted Sisters Tap House
This is one of our favorite restaurants in Midlothian! Twisted Sisters has delicious pizza, tasty appetizers, and has a great selections of drinks on tap! It's a fun laid-back place we love to visit, and we think you'll enjoy it just as much as we do!
