Continental Club

Anonymous's favorite place for live music in Austin, and they've got an incredibly perfect lineup for our wedding weekend. 9/28: Charanga Cakewalk is a FUN latin band 9/29: We'll miss James Hand, an awesome country throwback from the Hank Williams school, but perhaps after we've shut down the festivities some of us can swing over to catch Dale Watson, local legend and another classic country throwback.
Stubb's Bar-B-Q Restaurant
801 Red River StAustin, TX, USA
Stubb's is a great venue, which usually plays host to the roadshows that come through town. We'll see who's playing the last weekend in september! I've not been, but they say the Sunday Gospel Brunch is a great thing to do...
Attraction
Congress Avenue Bridge - World's Largest Urban Bat Community!
0 Congress AveAustin, TX, USA
A great thing to do on Friday night before heading over to the evening's get-together a few blocks away. Go around sunset, which is when the bats leave the bridge to go out for their evening of hunting. It's a pretty spectacular, if not a little smelly, event.
Hamilton Pool Preserve
24300 Hamilton Pool RdDripping Springs, TX, USA
It'll take you a good half hour to 45 mins to get here, but it's well worth it - a beautiful spot. Assuming the rain stops at some point, it's a great place to go for a brief hike and a dip with a waterfall to boot...
Jack S. Blanton Museum of Art
MLK at CongressAustin, TX, United States
The Blanton is Austin's new Art Museum. Anonymous and I have somehow still not made it there, but we've heard it's an impressive place. On the hybrid map it still looks like a parking lot - Google needs to make a new flyover.
Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center
4801 La Crosse AveAustin, TX, United States
Beautiful place. it won't be wildflower season, but go anyway. you'll be glad you did.
Oasis On Lake Travis

Restaurant with fantastic views of Lake Travis!

The Driskill Hotel
604 Brazos StAustin, TX, USA
Zilker Botanical Garden
2220 Barton Springs RdAustin, TX, USA
Another awesome destination in Zilker that merits its own point!
Zilker Park
2100 Barton Springs RoadAustin, TX, USA
Home to the fabulous Barton Springs Pool, as well as a departure point for kayaking on Barton Creek and into Town Lake, or for a hike/bike via the Greenbelt back up into the Barton Creek Watershed, Zilker is a fantastic park and a quintessential Austin experience - also the home of the Austin City Limits Festival (2 weeks before the wedding).
