The trip after the wedding

Santa Barbara or Steamboat Springs?

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.

  • Santa Barbara has 2 stays that sleep a group of twelve in one place, against 1 in Steamboat Springs. 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 Santa Barbara and $500 in Steamboat Springs — roughly $100 a night between them, before anyone has eaten.
  • Both are at their best in March, June, July, August. Santa Barbara also holds up in April, May, September, October, November, and Steamboat Springs in January, February, December.
  • Santa Barbara is in CA, Steamboat Springs in CO.
