The beauty and serenity make for a remarkable destination to get married before family, friends and Mother Nature. Arizona’s quintessential wedding venue, Omni Tucson National Resort, will make your big day even more beautiful than you can imagine, whether the vibe is boho, vintage or timeless and traditional.

5 l Things to Do Before You Say ‘I Do’

Explore Tucson by enjoying a champagne brunch before embarking on a hot-air balloon ride high above the mountains. Take a bike tour through the streets of Tucson, stopping at different taco shops along the way or explore the Saguaro National Park on horseback. Peruse unique artwork, crafts and local produce at a farmers market or hop on a pedal pub-crawling party bus!

 

6 l The City of Gastronom-nom-nom-y

Tucson is the first city in the US designated as the City of Gastronomy by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Its thriving culinary scene consists of trendy gastropubs and ramen shops, cozy brunch spots and creative tapas and vegan eateries. You don’t spend time in Tucson, though, without visiting some of the best, most authentic Mexican restaurants, like Guadalajara Original Grill. You’ll find the freshest handmade tortillas, mouthwatering chicken mole enchiladas and the most refreshing prickly pear aguas frescas. Postino, a wine cafe, is a marvelous spot for group dining. Between the market fresh boards to the numerous bruschetta choices, there’s something everyone will love. Order a few bottles of wine and cheers to the bride and groom!  It’ll be a night to remember.

Local Insight: Be sure to try a chimichanga and a Sonoran hot dog—both were invented in Tucson!

7 l Shop, Dine and Explore

With so much to do (over and above your big day), give yourself plenty of time to explore. Tucson has six unique districts: Congress Street (lined with art museums, galleries and sidewalk cafes), Fourth Avenue (with vintage clothing, bookstores and handcrafted jewelry), Main Gate (located just outside University of Arizona, a great place to cheer on the Wildcats’ sports teams), Presidio (many museums and live music venues), Sentinel (great farmers market, hiking trails and food trucks) and Convention Center (historic theaters, festivals and sporting events). Make the most of your time in Tucson, a city famed for food, culture and entertainment. 

 

8 | Pre-Wedding Fun

Gather your bridal party before the big day and make it a celebration to remember. Start with a sunrise hot air balloon ride over The Sonoran Desert. After your feet are back on the ground, you’ll enjoy gourmet cuisine and champagne to keep the good times flowing. Your wedding crew will be loving the next stop on the agenda: visiting a couple microbreweries. Borderlands Brewing Company, Motosonora Brewing Co and 1912 Brewing Co are all great options for a hoppy time. After a few brews, end the evening at Agustin Kitchen. From the stuffed chicken breast to the wild mushroom risotto, there’s a variety of flavorful dishes that please. Everyone will be ending the day with a happy heart and stomach. And with that said, you’re ready for the big day!
