Wedding
Because it was love at first sight.
You’ll love this...
Wedding is so cool you’ll drop to one knee and swear Till death do us part (or until gentrification empties your pockets of their last penny).
But you won’t love this...
It’s hip. Very hip.
‘Hip’ means ‘happening.’ ‘Happening’ means ‘informed.’ But informed about what? We don’t know. It’s a hipster secret.
Some can mix it with the hipsters, and some can’t. We can’t. Can you?
Will I like living here?...
Yeah, we’ll say it: Wedding is up-and-coming.
It’s been up-and-coming for a while now. It’s Mitte’s cool, laid-back, tattooed, edgy next-door neighbour.
Every good Wedding day starts with coffee. Fancy coffee. Third-wave organic single origin pour-over coffee. Try Cafe Pförtner.
That’s a strong start. Will the rest of the day be a slow deflation into disappointment?
Not in Wedding. Vegan restaurants, hip bars, instant art, and stonking live music will see you right till bedtime.
Party in abandoned swimming pools on Thursday. Attend the opening of a longboard shop on Friday. Pop into a pop-up art gallery in a converted factory on Saturday. Eat breakfast in a converted old bus on Sunday...
What a weird and wonderful life you’ll lead.
And if you’re bored...
Mastul Bar: A very cool bar with a great comedy night (Thursday). A chance to see the legendary German humour in full swing.
Google rating: 4.9/5
And this Google review nails it:
“I do not have words, that's how beautiful it is.” – Perfectly said (in words).
Anything else?
An affordable room isn’t hard to find in Wedding. Apartments, though lovely, get expensive. Search the northern fringe for a bargain.
