210 Days To Go!

Huntsville is such a fun and unique city. We are so happy that you will have the chance to explore the city that we love so much!

Some Huntsville FUN FACTS:

Our wedding venue, the Roundhouse, is the town’s historic train depot! During your stay in Huntsville, check out the old historic trains located adjacent to our venue!

Huntsville uses a purple cup policy within the city's entertainment districts. This means that you can freely walk on the street and sidewalks with open container alcohol policy, just as long as your drinks in a purple cup. The local bars and restaurants can provide you with a purple cup before you leave their establishment!

Huntsville is called the Rocket City. You will find space themed businesses, art, food, and drinks all throughout the city.

The Saturn V rocket, which took humans to the moon, was developed in Huntsville.

Huntsville has several scavenger hunts to complete. Including a Craft Beer Trail, Craft Coffee Trail, and Craft Cocktail Trail! See how many you can check off during your stay! https://www.downtownhuntsville.org/downtown-huntsville-trails
