The trip after the wedding

Eureka Springs or Gatlinburg?

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 $150 a night in Gatlinburg and $590 in Eureka Springs — roughly $440 a night between them, before anyone has eaten.
  • Both are at their best in April, May, September, October. Eureka Springs also holds up in November, and Gatlinburg in June, July.
  • We carry noticeably more to do in Gatlinburg (13 things) than in Eureka Springs (7), which matters most for the middle day when the group splits up.
  • Eureka Springs is in AR, Gatlinburg in TN.
