Local Recommendations

Tortilla Flat Saloon

Enjoy a drive through the canyon and you'll run right into Tortilla Flat Saloon! On weekends they have a live band and some great people watching. NOTE: this drive isn't for the squeamish. Expect a lot of twists and turns!

Lost Dutchman State Park

Explore the backdrop to Saturday's nuptials! Right at the base of the Superstition Mountains, this state park offers numerous hiking trails. Make sure to bring water and wear sunscreen!

Hieroglyphic Trailhead

Our personal favorite hike in the city, this trail offers amazing views, tons of cacti, and hieroglyphics when you reach the top. Parking can be a little tight, so we recommend going early to beat the crowd. Don't forget to bring water and wear sunscreen!

Horse Back Riding

Little Miss BBQ Sunnyslope

Ranked top 10 BBQ spots in the U.S. You won't be disappointed!

Culinary Dropout (Scottsdale Waterfront)

Our first date was here, needless to say it went really well!

Old Town Scottsdale

From restaurants, bars, boutiques, and even some nightclubs! You can find something for everyone in Old Town!

Butterfield's Pancake House & Restaurant

Also known as Butters, Tim Melanson can't leave Phoenix without a pit stop here. Insider's tip: try the orange juice and always get a side of pancakes. My favorite is the Berry Bliss and T.J.'s is the classic buttermilk.
