Things To Do
Snakes & Lattes Tempe
A cozy board game café perfect for coffee, snacks, and a fun night out with friends or family. With an endless selection of games, tasty drinks, and a laid-back atmosphere, it’s a great spot to relax and hang out during the wedding weekend. This was one of our first dates. Well... “date” is generous. The bride and her roommate just needed a third player, and the groom unfortunately got recruited. What started as a strategic fill-in role turned into a night full of laughs, way too much competition, and one of those moments that made it pretty obvious how much fun we have doing life together.
Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch
A peaceful nature preserve with walking trails, lakes, and beautiful sunset views. It’s a quiet escape from the city where you can slow down, take a walk, and enjoy the natural beauty of the desert landscape. With scenic paths, wildlife, and some of the best sunset views in the area, it’s the perfect spot for a relaxing afternoon.
The Henry
A stylish neighborhood restaurant known for its warm atmosphere, great food, and handcrafted cocktails, The Henry is a wonderful spot to gather with friends and family during the wedding weekend. This restaurant holds a special place in our story. Before the proposal, before the “yes,” there was dinner at The Henry, marking the beginning of a night we’ll never forget. With its inviting atmosphere and meaningful place in our journey, The Henry will always remind us of the start of our forever.
