The trip after the wedding

Big Bear Lake or Big Sky?

Both work for a group after the wedding. Here is what actually separates them, from our own rows rather than from a template.

The trip you take with your friends right after the wedding — instead of the honeymoon, or before it.

  • The cheapest whole-group house starts at $400 a night in Big Sky and $600 in Big Bear Lake — roughly $200 a night between them, before anyone has eaten.
  • Both are at their best in January, February, March, June, July, August. Big Bear Lake also holds up in September, and Big Sky in December.
  • We carry noticeably more to do in Big Sky (12 things) than in Big Bear Lake (7), which matters most for the middle day when the group splits up.
  • Big Bear Lake is in CA, Big Sky in MT.
