The trip after the wedding

Iowa City or Lake of the Ozarks?

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 Lake of the Ozarks and $470 in Iowa City — roughly $70 a night between them, before anyone has eaten.
  • Both are at their best in May, June, September. Iowa City also holds up in April, October, and Lake of the Ozarks in July, August.
  • We carry noticeably more to do in Lake of the Ozarks (10 things) than in Iowa City (6), which matters most for the middle day when the group splits up.
  • Iowa City is in IA, Lake of the Ozarks in MO.
