Things to Do

Our wedding weekend is set in the heart of downtown Columbus! We absolutely love our city and can't wait for our out-of-town guests to experience it.


The Night Before Welcome Drinks are located in the Short North and the Wedding Venue is in Italian Village, just a few blocks from each other.


Saturday will be an Ohio State Game Day v.s. Wisconsin (away, thankfully!). Expect restaurants/bars downtown to be filled with OSU fans & very busy if you are out and about during the day Saturday!


Some of our favorites in the area include:


Italian Village:

-Fox in the Snow Cafe: great coffee, breakfast sandwiches & pastries

-Seventh Son Brewery: local brewery, typically has a food truck parked outside

-Budd Dairy Food Hall: lots of food options, a large bar & rooftop space

-Ravello Coffee/the Daily Bar


The Short North:.

-Short North Pint House: great bar for game days!

-Townhall: Directly underneath the Moxy Hotel. A great place to get lunch. Fun causal spot with healthy options & a lively atmosphere. No reservations necessary.

-Mandrake Rooftop: Directly above the Moxy Hotel. Amazing sushi (on the pricier side) & a great place to grab some cocktails. Recommend a reservation if you want to go for dinner.

-Lincoln Social Rooftop: cool cocktail bar

-Arch City Tavern: great elevated bar food.

-Forno Kitchen: go for brunch & pizza! Fun atmosphere. Make sure to grab a reservation in advance.

-Press Grill: classic bar food

-The Lox Bagel Shop: Delicious breakfast sammies if you're looking to grab a quick breakfast (recommend ordering ahead).
