Ardor is hands down one of our favorite places in Peoria, especially after the riverfront farmer's market. We love grabbing croissants and fresh pastries there.

Blue Duck is one of our favorite date spots! They've got a fantastic menu, and we can never resist starting with their fried pickles or poutine. If you need a bite to eat, we definitely recommend stopping by!

Four30 is a fun neighborhood spot in downtown Morton. Jess, my Matron of Honor, and I have spent countless hours at those tables!

We love starting our Saturday mornings at Zion Coffee. The Banana Butterscotch Latte is a must-try, and the atmosphere is always cool and relaxing.
