Soda City Farmer's market is open every Saturday - rain or shine - from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Main Street. This is a great way to explore all local South Carolina vendors in one place!
As many of you know, we spend most of our Columbia weekends (and weeknights) in attendance at some sort of South Carolina Gamecocks Sporting Event. Our wedding weekend will be in the midst of SEC play for both the men's and women's basketball teams! The top ranked Lady Gamecocks play LSU on Thursday, January 23. The Men play Mississippi State on Saturday, January 25 at 1:00 p.m., if you are looking for a fun pre-wedding activity!
Riverbanks Zoo and Garden is regularly named as a top 10 zoo in the nation, and has beautiful botanical gardens.
