Welcome to Gainesville, GA! We are so excited that you are joining us here in North Georgia and we want to ensure you have a great time over the weekend if you are coming from out of town. When it comes to getting outdoors, spending time by the water, or enjoying southern food, our area offers it all.

Starting with the brides’s hometown of Cumming, GA, we offer a variety of tasty dishes and ideas for shopping. A few of the bride’s favorite local spots are Los Rios Mexican restaurant, Maria’s Italian Deli, Rendezvous Café, Roosters Café and Tams Backstage. If you adventure further south on the highway, there are plenty of delicious restaurants located at The Collection at Forsyth, The Halcyon, and The Avalon.

As we travel further north towards Dawsonville, there are a variety of simple restaurants the groom loves. We recommend trying Chin Chin Chinese, Big D’s BBQ, Burger and Shake, Country Café, and Because Coffee. You must get the cinnamon roll from the Country Café! If you keep traveling up the highway, we highly recommend the delightful town of Dahlonega, GA. The small college town is filled with fun boutiques, great food and local bars. The Dahlonega Tasting Room will give you an enjoyable experience with wine tasting after checking out the antique shops located in the square.

If you want to navigate away from the crowd and indulge in Georgia’s beautiful landscape, there are a variety of activities to do outside if weather permitting. Hiking Sawnee mountain preserve, going for a walk at the greenway, or enjoying a cool breeze by Lake Lanier are all offered to you when you visit our hometown. There is also the option to indulge in some drinks! The Nofo Brewing Company, The Blue Bicycle, and Cherry Street Brewing are there to offer good beer and a good time.

We look forward to you visiting our hometown and making the most of your experience in Georgia.
