IAN AND MEGAN MORRIS
Where to stay, where to eat.
SO... WE GOT MARRIED!
Where: Asheville, N.C.

Where to stay.
A cab ride to The Flying Saucer from each of these hotels should cost less than $10 each way. The Flying Saucer also has valet and self-service parking, but Ian and I ask that if you plan on drinking at the party, please consider taking a cab or bringing a designated driver as your guest. Safety first, peeps!

This hotel is right around the corner from the bar within walking distance.

Ian and I have stayed in this hotel before and it’s very clean.
DETAILS
Where to eat.
There’s going to be plenty of food and drink at our reception (I mean, it IS a party), but if you’re going to be in town for a day or two and are looking for some good eats, check these out:
A longtime favorite of Ian’s and mine, this microbrewery has award-winning handcrafted beers and the best spinach cannelloni around. Open for lunch and dinner.
We should be ashamed to say that we’ve never eaten here, since every Saturday or Sunday morning there’s a line down the block. But it’s a Nashville tradition (apparently).
Loveless Cafe
We’ve never been here either (hey, we’re not tourists!), but everyone we talk to raves about it. It’s a bit out of town in the country, but if you like southern cooking (biscuits, fried chicken, etc.), then this is a can’t-miss Nashville experience.
If you’re coming into town for our reception (or are just looking for a place nearby to crash after getting tanked that night), below are some nice hotels nearby. And if you’re going to be in town for a day or two, check out some of these restaurants for some of the best (in our opinion at least) of Nashville.
