The trip after the wedding

Black Hills or Traverse City?

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.

  • Traverse City has 2 stays that sleep a group of twelve in one place, against 1 in Black Hills. If keeping everyone under one roof is the point, that is the difference that matters.
  • The cheapest whole-group house starts at $465 a night in Traverse City and $500 in Black Hills — roughly $35 a night between them, before anyone has eaten.
  • Both are at their best in June, July, August, September. Traverse City in October.
  • We carry noticeably more to do in Traverse City (12 things) than in Black Hills (8), which matters most for the middle day when the group splits up.
  • Black Hills is in SD, Traverse City in MI.
