Things To Do
Santana Row
If you like to shop and eat, Santana Row is your spot! Santana Row is an outdoor downtown area in San Jose, CA. They are known for their shops, restaurants, and outdoor music in the summertime.
Carmel-by-the-Sea
Located about 45 minutes away from the wedding venue is Carmel-by-the-Sea and Monterey! Why is it worth seeing? It's where Kelsey and Brandon got engaged! Carmel-by-the-Sea is a coastal town known for its beaches, shopping, and romantic housing architecture. Carmel-by-the-Sea and Monterey have a variety of adorable inns (Tickle Pink Inn is where K&B stayed their engagement night) that are a must try if you want to spend a night near the coast.
Casa De Fruta Parkway
Have you ever tried produce off the side of a random highway? No? Well, this is your moment! Casa de Fruta is a Norcal hidden gem, and all the Bay Area locals know about it. Long story short, it's an adorable produce market off the side of a random highway. Not only is the produce tasty, it might be the only place you can get 10 avocados for $1.00 (yes, ONE DOLLAR). Casa de Fruta may be in the middle of nowhere, California, but it's certainly a memorable spot and worth a visit!
Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk
Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is a Northern California must for all those who have a soft spot for amusement parks by the ocean. SCBB is a Bay Area favorite-- it's the perfect place for chilling on the beach, playing arcade games, shopping for cute CA merchandise, and eating dip-n-dots on the boardwalk after a long day of going on rides and having fun in the sun. B&K had a memorable date here in year 2 of their relationship. Check the photo section to see the picture taken of them before they rode the most famous ride at the Boardwalk: The Giant Dipper!
Stanford University
Located in the heart of the Silicon Valley is the one and only, Stanford University. Stanford is a beautiful campus located within Palo Alto, CA. The campus sits on 8,000+ acres and is known as one of the most prestigious universities in the country. Near Stanford University is Stanford Shopping Center; an outside mall that's home to over 104 stores including Tesla and See's Candies (the best chocolate that's born and raised in California)!
