If you're here early, here are some things to see and do around the city.
The Augusta Canal Boat Tour and Interpretive Center is definitely a good place to go. The boat tours are fun. They give you a bit of Augusta history. This is open every day of the week.
The Augusta History Museum has some great exhibits.
Augusta State University use to be an armory and has some interesting history too. The university is located 'on the hill' or in Summerville which has beautiful architecture. It's the old money part of Augusta.
If you would like to see the boyhood home of the man who brought us such wonders as the Federal Reserve, World War 1 and Eugenics, Woodrow Wilson's house is open for tours.
The Ezekiel Harris House is also quite interesting.
If you don't want to look at houses or read about history, it's fun to take a bike ride on the Augusta Canal tow path. You can easily get to the canal from my house and I have plenty of bikes. I fixed a few up specifically for visitors. The canal is easily accessed from the back end of my neighborhood. It's also a nice place to take a walk or run.
The Georgia-Carolina State Fair will also be going on at the same time as the wedding.
Since it's close to Halloween there is an interesting spooky play, a 'Spirits of Hallowed Eve' tour in North Augusta
And many other things can be found here!
