The town of Dover, which is situated along the Rockaway River, is an easily walkable community with some excellent resources to help you with the wedding planning process.

Dover is home to several churches featuring beautiful architecture, including First Memorial Presbyterian, so you'll have several options if you're considering traditional wedding venues.

For intimate rehearsal dinners, check out The Laughing Lion, which specializes in gourmet pub cuisine, features an extensive beer list, and has a private banquet room for special occasions.

Another local caterer for you to consider is Tony & Vinnie's Italian Deli & Bakery, which can provide full-service hot food catering, deli trays for bridal luncheons, and make homemade desserts for your wedding reception such as cannolis, napoleons, and custom wedding cakes.

Meanwhile, Victor's Flowers & Gifts can help put the finishing touches on your big day with custom ceremony arrangements and reception centerpieces made with seasonal wedding flowers.

Dover has several parks for you to relax in during your free time, including Hamilton Park, Water Works Park, Hurd Park, which features a Greek-style pavilion where you can take engagement and wedding photographs, and part of Hedden County Park.

You can also enjoy the Dover Flea Market & Street Fair, which takes place every Sunday during the warmer spring and summer months, or visit the Dover Area Historical Society.
