Big Grove Brewery is an Iowa based brewery and is our FAVORITE local brewery! They have a wide selection of beers to choose from and their food is delicious.

Try two of our favorite IPAs, the Easy Eddy or the Royal Eddy, along with their giant pretzel!

Clock House Brewing is attached to the Black Sheep Social Club and has one of our favorite Hazy IPAs - The Witch Slap.

This is a great place to enjoy a beer and grab a bite to eat!

This place has a lot of great food options to grab lunch or dinner and is attached to the Clock House Brewery.

Fun fact - we came here for lunch on our 2nd anniversary!

The Czech Village is a super cool place to walk around and hang out. They have a little bit of everything from food, drinks, markets, and local small businesses.

Our favorite places are Brewhemia and Almost Famous popcorn!

The Cedar Ridge Distillery is about 10 minutes south of the wedding venue, nested in beautiful Iowa farm land and country side. Their pizza's are literally the best in the area and go great with their selection of wines.

Fun fact - we planned our wedding guest list at Cedar Ridge over some pizza and red wine!

If you're up for a day trip, the Amana Colonies are about 20-25 minutes from the venue and hands down one of our favorite places to visit in Iowa.

The Amana Colonies feel like you've step into a quaint, small German town. They have lots of shops, restaurants, and wineries to enjoy all day.

Our favorite places are The Chocolate Haus, the General Store, White Cross Cellars, and Millstream Brau Haus.

Fun fact - we celebrated Pat turning 33 with a day trip here!
