Fun and Romantic Wedding Anniversary Ideas in Moab Utah

Sept. 14, 2012 - PRLog -- Moab has a fresh ambition to anoint lovers with reflections of Moab for an Anniversary celebration. Moab for destination weddings has grown popular, now the Moab Travel Council announces the possibilities for couples seeking the area for a special anniversary.

Make it a great escape from a home place, just for two or bring the closest couples to honor this wonderful date of marriage. Be inspired by the possibilities in Moab because Moab is not just for recreation and leisure anymore.

Carry delicious sandwiches by Love Muffin Cafe, Red Rock Bakery, Legers, or Pantele’s Desert Deli for a light evening meal and hike to Delicate Arch. This hike during a full moon adds a touch of romanticism.

Organize a memorable photo shoot this anniversary. Contract a Moab Local Photographer, who will advise you of the best time of day for specific backdrops. Hang this anniversary image next to a favorite wedding photo at home or at the office.

Visit the Moab Museum, Daughter of the Utah Pioneers, Moab Movie Museum, and Lin Ottinger’s Rock Shop and take in a self guided trail to discover dinosaur fossils and track ways, rock art, Moab movie tour, and the Historic Pinhook Battle site. Add the local history to the making of your marriage history.

Hug looking out over the romantic view from Dead Horse Point State Park. Fortify your visit with a snack or lunch from the Pony Expresso Coffee Shop now located near the visitor center.

Go on an adventure: tandem repel, river rafting, jet boat tour, guided 4×4 tour, go bicycling, and/or drive a side by side UTV on easier dirt trails. (Be respectful of land use.)

Volunteer for a community, public lands, restoration clean up or project, then settle in for a romantic dinner with the awesome views from the cliff where the Uranium Millionaire’s House, now, the Sunset Grill is perched.

Include dancing. Monthly the Community Contra Band performs and coaches on contra dance. There is also a Salsa Group that convenes monthly; plan ahead to incorporate dancing while in Moab.  Finish the night with dessert and coffee or intimate drinks at Jeffrey's Steakhouse's Ghost Upstairs Lounge.

Schedule a hot air balloon ride with Canyonlands Ballooning, usually a day break launch. At the end of the day watch a movie filmed in Moab. Movie rentals can be found at Radio Shack and Sgt. Peppers Music & Video. (Of course, make sure there is a DVD player at the hotel, B&B, or guest house.)

Purchase local art for a memento of this prestigious celebration.

Partake of wine tasting at Spanish Valley Vineyards and/or Castle Creek Wines. Select a vintage to take home to reflect on this anniversary in Moab.

Take a stroll in Canyonlands National Park’s Island in the Sky district. Finish the day with a local beer at Eddie McStiffs or the Moab Brewery. Local beers are also on tap at Frankie D’s Tavern.
