The first place we made sure to go is Mellow Mushroom -- still our favorite eatery in Nashville!
We then checked into our hotel room and spent the evening on the main strip. We went to Honky Tonk Central, Bootleggers Inn (our favorite) to meet up with our bartender friend, Brandon, who broke his non-drinking-streak to have a shot with us the guys, did a little dancing at the Coyote Ugly, and then saw our favorite waitress (and singer) Chassidy Staton at Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, where we also met up with Keane and Jared's old high school classmate, Lucy. We then listened to some music at The Stage and then ended the night at Legends and/or Tootsie's Orchid Lounge.
The second day we had breakfast at Jack's Bar-B-Q. It was delicious! We then took a drive and saw the Parthenon and did a little shopping. We had dinner at a place I cannot recall and then for the evening. Wwe chose to stay off the Broadway strip and opted for some low-key bars where we played pool, shuffleboard, and visited, spending some good quality time in the sweet town of Nashville. We then took a walk and listened to some music and some radical sports fans at The Row. We later found The Slider House, and another bar, Losers Bar (it was either this or Winners Bar, and I think we made the best choice) where we talked until the night wasn't as young and our eyes were getting sleepy.
It was such a wonderful, perfect wedding gift and we enjoyed the trip, and all the laughter, and seeing all the women who "must work out."
We had breakfast on Sunday at Ihop and made our way back home.
Thanks, Jared and Melissa, for the best wedding gift we could have asked for!
