Our Favorite Dallas Things To Do

If you have some free time during our wedding weekend, here are a few of our favorite local spots situated close to the recommended hotels!

Holiday at the Arboretum

The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden, Garland Road, Dallas, TX, USA
(214) 515-6615

Holiday at the Arboretum is one of Dallas’s most beloved holiday traditions. During the intermission in our wedding celebration, you’ll have some time to explore the Arboretum. We highly recommend taking a stroll through the charming Christmas Village and experiencing the iconic 12 Days of Christmas Gazebos. This year marks the final season of these beloved gazebos, making it an especially meaningful time to enjoy this holiday tradition!

Doce Mesas

Doce Mesas is our favorite place to go for casual Mexican classics and the best margaritas in Dallas. Be sure to order "The One" and toast to a good time!
