Located behind Altamonte Mall across the street from the hotel with the wedding block, this park is a great place to get your walking miles in with a stroll around the loop.

Located north of Orlando in Manning’s “back yard” on the Wekiva River, this place rents canoes, kayaks and paddleboards to explore the river and the springs, or put on your swimsuit and take a dip in the river, or just sit back in one of the Adirondack chairs and have a drink from the bar and a snack from the food truck.

Wekiva Springs State Park is just down the road from Wekiva Island.

Located northwest of Orlando and close to our wedding venue, it is a beautiful historic small town, with many quaint shops, cafes and bars, located on Lake Dora. This is one of our favorite places to go during the Christmas holiday season.

Fun fact: the town was painted pink for the 1981 film “Honky Tonk Freeway”.

Located northeast of Orlando, this is home to Rollins College and also has many shops, cafes and bars, with the SunRail rail station running through downtown.

Located in downtown Orlando, this park is on a lake famous for its fountain and its swan boats. There is a walking path around the lake and a great farmers’ market on the weekend.
