Things to Do
Use these ideas if you are coming from out of town and have extra time to spend in Omaha on Saturday or Sunday. All of these locations are in downtown Omaha to prevent extra driving all over the city. Each of these places will be around a 10 minute drive from each hotel we have selected for the blocks of rooms.
The Fat Putter
The Fat Putter is an incredibly fun indoor miniature golf center that features four different 9 hole courses. Kids can play from open to 6pm. After 6 p.m. , it is an adult only location.
The Durham Museum
The Durham Museum is an exciting place to explore Omaha and Nebraska's history. With both traveling and permanent exhibits, there is so much to learn! Come see this incredibly beautiful building that once served as Omaha's passenger train station. If you love history like Kristen, then this is a great place for you!
Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium
The Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium- one of Omaha's most beloved places! Zach and Kristen went here on their third date. Depending on the weather, this would be a great place to go if you have a large amount of time. It requires a lot of walking with many hills, so the tram would be a great way to see the zoo if walking for long periods is difficult.
Omaha Children's Museum
The Omaha Children's Museum is an exciting place for kids! The museum offers both traveling and permanent exhibits. Children are free to use their imagination, learn through play, and explore the world through all of the fun activities provided here. This would be a great place to take your kids if you are staying in Omaha the night before the wedding and have some time to pass on Saturday.
Joslyn Art Museum
The Joslyn art museum was where Zach took Kristen on their second date! There was an exibit on Native American artwork she wanted to see. She knew then that he was a keeper!
The Josyln reopened in September of 2024 with many new renovations and exhibits. If you enjoy artwork, then this is a great place for you!
Kiewit Luminarium
The Luminarian is one of Omaha's newest attractions with it being just a few years old. It is a museum based on science, art, and human perception. It allows visitors to explore different phenomena from around the world. If you have a science brain like Zach, then you are sure to love The Luminarian!
Gene Leahy Mall at The RiverFront
The Gene Leahy Mall, also known as The River Front, has been newly renovated in recent years. Weather permitting, this is an exciting place to walk through in the heart of downtown Omaha. The Mall includes an amphitheater, playground, and sculpture garden.
