The trip after the wedding

Palm Springs or San Diego?

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.

  • Palm Springs has 3 stays that sleep a group of twelve in one place, against 2 in San Diego. If keeping everyone under one roof is the point, that is the difference that matters.
  • Both are at their best in March, April, October, November. Palm Springs also holds up in January, February, December, and San Diego in May, June, July, August, September.
  • We carry noticeably more to do in San Diego (19 things) than in Palm Springs (11), which matters most for the middle day when the group splits up.
