The trip after the wedding

Cartagena or Negril?

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.

  • Cartagena has 2 stays that sleep a group of twelve in one place, against 1 in Negril. If keeping everyone under one roof is the point, that is the difference that matters.
  • The cheapest whole-group house starts at $150 a night in Cartagena and $350 in Negril — roughly $200 a night between them, before anyone has eaten.
  • Both are at their best in January, February, March, April, December. Negril in November.
  • We carry noticeably more to do in Cartagena (11 things) than in Negril (6), which matters most for the middle day when the group splits up.
  • Cartagena is in Colombia, Negril in Jamaica.
