Top 10 Attractions in Memphis
Since you’ll be in Memphis, why not soak in the culture. Below are a few attractions that you would really enjoy. If you’re in the mood to taste Memphis’ World famous barbecue, hear live Blues Bands, take a stroll to Wet Willie’s and party up a storm, your one-stop-shop is Beale Steet! Don’t stay out too late though because the Grammy winning Rev. Al Green has Sunday morning Church Service at Full Gospel Tabernacle. If you’re in the mood to reflect, The National Civil Rights Museum, where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated, has been transformed into a beautifully emotional time capsule for Black America. Afterwards, slip on your dancin’ shoes and head on over to Elvis’ house, Graceland. Elvis Birthday weekend is the same weekend as the wedding, so bring your camera, because the Elvis Impersonators will be everywhere!
