Things To Do
Donckers
Whether you're wanting to visit a local staple, or have a sweet tooth for homemade chocolate-covered caramels, Donckers is a must to all visiting friends and family! Katelyn recommends getting the dark chocolate covered caramels!
Sol Azteca
Voted as the "Second Best Mexican Restaurant of all time" by Mike Randolph (husband to the Maid of Honor), Sol Azteca has great Mexican food, margaritas and chips & SALSA!!
Lawry's Pasty Shop
A visit to the U.P. wouldn't be complete without stopping by Lawry's to try their pastys (pAst-ies)! These meat and potato pies are a hit with locals and have been keeping Marquette miners fed for years!
Sugarloaf Mountain
Sugarloaf Mountain is great for those looking for a quick hike with views overlooking Marquette and Lake Superior!
Au Train River
The Au Train River provides guests with a relaxing canoe/kayak trip down seven miles of river. Pack some snacks, a lunch and adult beverages to best experience the trip!
The Up North Lodge
Try some of the " 'Almost' World's Famous Ribs" at the first place Katelyn took Patrick during his initial trip to the U.P.! The Up North Lodge offers a complete menu and salad bar, local beers and cocktails in a lodge atmosphere.
The Vierling Restaurant & Marquette Harbor Brewery
Whether you go for the Blueberry Wheat Beer, or for the White Fish bites, the Vierling is a great bar and restaurant option for guests looking to grab something to eat (or drink) between the ceremony and reception. The Vierling is also Patrick's favorite Marquette spot!
Ore Dock Brewing Company
Looking for a social evening? We recommend starting the night at Ore Dock Brewing Company and try their range of tap beers! Although the brewery doesn't sell food, Ore Dock hosts a local Food Truck on Fridays.
Great Idea Charters
What better way of experiencing Lake Superior than a fishing charter with the best Captain and First Mate in all of the U.P., Ron and Ronnie Ritari (Uncle of the Bride, and Groomsman).
