The trip after the wedding

Napa Valley or Phoenix?

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.

  • Napa Valley has 2 stays that sleep a group of twelve in one place, against 1 in Phoenix. If keeping everyone under one roof is the point, that is the difference that matters.
  • The cheapest whole-group house starts at $500 a night in Napa Valley and $600 in Phoenix — roughly $100 a night between them, before anyone has eaten.
  • Both are at their best in October. Napa Valley also holds up in May, June, July, August, September, and Phoenix in March, April, November, December.
  • We carry noticeably more to do in Napa Valley (16 things) than in Phoenix (5), which matters most for the middle day when the group splits up.
  • Napa Valley is in CA, Phoenix in AZ.
