If you are staying close to Orange County, make sure to stop by Laguna Beach for beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean and sunshine. It has diverse restaurants, art, and shops to check out. Laguna is one place that is very special to Gabe and Sash, since it's where they had one of their first dates and where he proposed to her!
Gabe and Sash swear that Perry's Joint is the best place to get a sandwich in the Pasadena area! It's a local sandwich shop that is family-owned and offers a variety of homemade sandwiches and treats. It's one of their favorite places to grab a bite!
This is one of their favorite hangouts. Plenty of good food and it's nice area to walk around and to peak in some of the different shops. Definitely check this plaza out! P.S. Make sure to check out Burger Parlor for great fusion burgers and delicious waffle fries and T-Milk for some good tea drinks, where Sash has a few favorite drinks. https://www.tmilkboba.com http://www.burgerparlor.com
This is one of Gabe's and Sash's favorite Thai restaurants to visit. They always get the Pad Thai and a Thai Tea to wash it down. Once you finishing eating, you can take a stroll to the boardwalk to work off the food. This is where Sash and Gabe took their first picture together and held hands.
Old Town Pasadena is one of Sash’s and Gabe’s favorite spots to hang out or go out to eat, when they are in Gabe’s neck of the woods. There is plenty of shops, restaurants and entertainment to see when visiting over the weekend. This was where Sash went out on her second date with Gabe for is birthday and also where they went salsa dancing in the main square a separate time during the summer.
The LA Arboretum is a beautiful place to visit! It’s an outdoor area where they have different gardens based on different climates in the world. Gabe and Sash had a photo shoot here for a friend and enjoyed the different environments. Take a walk in the park and stop to smell the roses.. literally!
Okay, now who doesn’t love Disney?! When you’re in town, you have to check out Disneyland or at least Downtown Disney. Gabe and Sash enjoyed coming for the first time together during this past holiday season. There are plenty of shops and restaurants to check out, let alone saying hi and taking a picture with Mickey and his friends!
