Orlando is chock-full of theme parks and other attractions, of course (Disney and Universal Studios are a 20-30 minute car ride from Winter Park, depending on the traffic), but there’s plenty more to do aside from hanging out with The Mouse. Here are two great articles about what else to see, eat and experience in the greater Orlando.

Small-Town Escapes: Winter, Park, FL (via Garden & Gun magazine)

24 Hours in Orlando, FL (via the popular blog Design*Sponge)

And for old-timey sightseeing fun with a side of historical facts, we love the Winter Park Scenic Boat Tour.

There are numerous accommodations in the Winter Park-Orlando area. Here are a few that we recommend:

Downtown Winter Park

The Alfond Inn

Park Plaza Hotel (pictured above)

Both of these hotels are within walking distance of Casa Feliz–0.7 miles, to be exact!

Greater Orlando Area

Sheraton Orlando North

The Grand Bohemian Hotel

AirBNB is also a great option if you don’t want to go the tradition hotel route. Click here to see options in Winter Park.

Our venue is Casa Feliz, located at 656 N. Park Avenue, Winter Park, FL 32789. Casa Feliz is a restored Spanish farmhouse in the heart of Winter Park, overlooking the city’s public golf course. Years ago, the home was threatened to be torn down, but through a combination of private funds and a state grant, it was saved, and the house was able to be moved from its original location to the current one on Park Avenue. (You can read more about that right here.)

We love it because it’s totally charming, thanks to its brick exterior, wood floors, Spanish details and gorgeous courtyard. We think you’ll love it, too!

Both the ceremony and reception will be held at Casa Feliz on Saturday, January 30, from 4:30-9 p.m.

DRIVING DIRECTIONS
From either eastbound or westbound I-4, take the Lee Road (SR 423) exit, #88. Go north on Lee Road; follow for about 1.3 miles. Lee Road dead-ends. Turn right on US-17-92/Orlando Avenue. Take an almost immediate left at the very next light onto Webster Avenue. Follow Webster for .8 miles. Turn right onto Park Avenue. Casa Feliz sits on the golf course on your left, just South of Webster Avenue, at 656 N. Park Avenue. For parking in the Casa Feliz lot, stay on Webster (above) and do not turn on Park Avenue. Cross Park Avenue and then take your next right onto Old England/Interlachen. You will immediately approach a parking lot on your right. Take the third parking lot entrance, and drive all the way to the back, where you’ll find the venue.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

If you’re arriving in Orlando on Friday afternoon, we invite you to join us on the Winter Park Scenic Boat Tour (time and details to follow).
