Romantic things to do

I know about Bricktown and Redrock by the lake but I%26#39;m after a few other romanticy things to do around Edmond - is there anything in the way of balloon rides or walks people could recommend?

She%26#39;s a keeper and I want to proper sweep her off her feet, as they say : )

We%26#39;re spending a week there.

What type of romantic things are you talking about in Edmond? Have you BEEN to Edmond before? We are from the DFW area and received the biggest shock and disappointment back in April when we arrived in Edmond. Do not let their travel video fool you, it%26#39;s a dump! They show this nice downtown area with sculptures everywhere, not true! You have to hunt the sculptures down in front of the local bank, Walmart, etc...It was such a dump we drove the other 300 miles back home in the same day for a total of almost 600 miles. We reserved a $300 a night luxury cottages that was also a dump!

I am sorry your expectations were set high due to the promotional material and you did not enjoy your stay in Edmond. But in all fairness, Edmond is no worse than other towns with it%26#39;s travel promotion. In the end it is basically still a bedroom community for Oklahoma City and is not as geared to tourists as some other small towns might be.

The bronzes you mention ARE all over town - but a large percentage are located within a few short blocks of each other around the (relatively small) downtown area which is still just a small town downtown area. And while there are some specialty shops it%26#39;s not a glitzed-up district - just small-town main street.

If you want to know about any of the places to stay or eat, please use the Tripadvisor reviews where they are available. You can also check out the sites in the forums listed in the ';Some Oklahoma Forums You%26#39;ll Like'; topic, tripadvisor.com/ShowTopic-g28957-i520-k16403…

I have been trying to find some romantic things that would ';sweep her off her feet,'; but other than a few concerts scheduled for September (you don%26#39;t say when you will be here) as far as I can tell there is really not anything readily available like that. My best advice is to try to arrange some things with the managers of wherever you are staying and a restaurant.

Overall, you will probably spend as much or more time in Oklahoma City as you will in Edmond the week you are here.
