Things to Do
We are planning on enjoying some extra time in the mountains for the weekend leading up to the wedding! We will be staying in Boone, NC (about 30 minutes away from West Jefferson) Friday and Saturday nights.
Saturday, May 25th, before meeting up at Booneshine Brewing for welcome drinks, we plan to take a group hike at Elk Knob State Park (20 minutes outside of Boone). If you are interested in joining, reach out to us and we’ll loop you in on the plans!
