The trip after the wedding

New Orleans or Outer Banks?

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.

  • Outer Banks has 2 stays that sleep a group of twelve in one place, against 1 in New Orleans. If keeping everyone under one roof is the point, that is the difference that matters.
  • The cheapest whole-group house starts at $400 a night in Outer Banks and $550 in New Orleans — roughly $150 a night between them, before anyone has eaten.
  • Both are at their best in May. New Orleans also holds up in February, March, April, October, November, and Outer Banks in June, July, August, September.
  • New Orleans is in LA, Outer Banks in NC.
