Restaurants:

Valentinos "Italians of the Carribean" Family Restaurant
460 Crosstown Road, Peachtree City, GA 30269
PH: 770- 631-7779
Favorite of the Edwards family. Specializes in Italian food, Carribean food, and any conceivable combination of the two. Recommended is the Homemade-Mozzerella tossed salad, the Chicken Française, the Rasta Pasta...and pretty much anything else on the menu. You can't go wrong. The only restaurant I know of that plays non-stop Jimmy Buffet from the 70's to the present.

Mike & C's Family Sports Grill.
1200 Hwy 74 South, Suite 14, Peachtree City, GA 30269.
PH: 770-486-1982. Right on Hwy 74.
Open Fri-Sat 8 AM - 11 PM, Sun-Thurs 8 AM - 10 PM.
The traditional Sunday breakfast spot for Mr. and Mrs. E and Mr. and Mrs. R. Tell them you know the Edwards and Richardsons, that you're in town for Miss Edwards' wedding, and maybe you'll even get a discount ?!? (but I wouldn't count on it...) See the menu at the link above.

Bruster's Ice Cream. 103 Lexington Circle. Peachtree City, GA 30269.
PH: 770-487-8131. Right on Hwy 54.
One of the BEST ice cream chains ANYWHERE. Yes, it's about 2 minutes from Holy Trinity. Mmmm...

Partner's Pizza. 215 Northlake Drive Peachtree City, GA 30269.
Right on Hwy 54. PH: 770-487-9393. Open 11 AM - 10 PM.
Weekday lunch buffet 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM
Voted Best Pizza in Coweta and Fayette Counties (not sure by whom). A truly Storied location in the history of John and Lauren...it is a tradition among the Alamari (John, Lauren, MOH Joanna and BM Tom) to eat and read there. The potato pizza in particular comes recommended from John.

Backyard Burgers. 147 Hwy 74 Peachtree City, GA 30269.
PH: (678) 777-7847

The Mellow Mushroom. 275 Highway 74 N Peachtree City, GA 30269
PH: 770-632-6018. A chain, but another good pizza option. Really fun website.

Chick-Fil-A. 707 Highway 54. Peachtree City, GA 30269.
PH: 770/487-0042. Moments from Holy Trinity, between the Hampton Inn and the church on Highway 54. If you havent' had THE Southern fast food chain, you HAVE to try it. The lemonade is the drink of choice.

Waffle House. 2100 HWY 54 E, PTC and 143 HWY 74 S., PTC.
PH: (678)364-9446 OR (770)487-7488
Hey, it'll be open no matter how late you want to eat. One right next to the church, one near the Hampton. If you've never been, another great Southern experience. DISCLAIMER: EATING WAFFLE HOUSE MAY INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF LUNG CANCER, HEART DISEASE, SALMONELLA, AND BEING A REDNECK.

And more...
Driving up and down 74 or 54 will yield a plethora more options, familiar and unusual.

Ignore the part about the bank. At the end you will actually turn right onto Dogwood Trail and then make an immediate left onto Glendalough Court. Glendalough Manor is the big stone-looking house at the end of this road, past the little gatehouse and by the gardens (can't miss it)
