Things To Do
Gathering Place
Spanning almost 100 acres along the Arkansas River, Tulsa's premiere public park was funded by a private gift of $465 million. With something to enjoy for all ages, the Gathering Place is a favorite of the bride and groom.
Utica Square
Nestled in the heart of midtown, Utica Square is a walkable conglomerate of upscale shops and dining. Personal favorites of the bride and groom include Queenies, Polo Grill, Williams-Sonoma, and New Balance.
Cherry Street
Located between Peoria and Utica on 15th, the hub of nightlife and upscale dining has been dubbed Cherry Street. Personal favorites of the bride and groom include Coffee House on Cherry Street, SMOKE, and Sidecar Barley & Wine Bar.
Philbrook Museum of Art
Formerly the home of oil tycoon Waite Phillips, the villa and its grounds were gifted to Tulsa in 1938 with the vision of becoming a cultural hub and world-class art museum. The bride and groom had their engagement photos taken in its gardens.
Center of the Universe
A running joke between the bride and groom, the Center of the Universe is indeed in Tulsa. Fueled by an accidental feat of engineering, only the speaker can hear an endless echo of their own voice when standing in the Center of the Universe.
Woodward Park and Gardens
Woodward Park is home to the Tulsa Garden Center, Snedden Mansion, and the Tulsa Arboretum. While the park is gorgeous to walk through on its own, many classes and events open to the public are available.
Guthrie Green
With everything from fitness classes to concerts, Guthrie Green is small oasis in the midst of the Brady Arts District.
Decopolis Tulsa Art Deco Museum
The Tulsa Art Deco Mini-Museum features free admission and insight into Tulsa's rich architectural history throughout the Gilded Age, which coincided with our city's oil-boom. Attached to the museum is a gelato and crepe shop.
Tulsa Historical Society & Museum
Housed in the Sam Travis Mansion, the Tulsa Historical Society & Museum depicts both the good and bad of Tulsa's rich history. The estate also features vintage gardens, adjacent to the Tulsa Rose Garden of Woodward Park and Gardens.
Philtower Building
Another architectural wonder, the Art Deco interior of the Philtower Building transports visitors back to a time when Tulsa was a bustling center of wealth, commerce, and frivolity. The Philtower also houses some of Tulsa's famous underground tunnel system, previously used by wealthy businessmen to navigate downtown without having to brave Oklahoma's unpredictable weather.
