Six Post-Wedding Activities for a Luxury Weekend Away 

Six Post-Wedding Activities for a Luxury Weekend Away

Weddings are no longer a single day affair. These days, it’s not uncommon for full weekend (or even week-long) experiences! For some couples, it’s a natural part of planning a destination wedding, for others it’s simply finding more time to soak in every moment with their guests. Either way, post-wedding activities are the perfect way to keep the celebration going!  

These elevated post-wedding ideas will leave your guests feeling pampered and appreciated, long after the “I do.” 

Morning-After Brunch 

There’s no better way to say thank you to your friends and family than a leisurely morning-after brunch. From mimosa bars to artisanal pastries, brunch is the perfect opportunity to share stories and relive favorite wedding moments. Bonus, keep your wedding aesthetic alive by reusing your reception tablescapes and center pieces at this celebration.

Luxury Sailing Excursion 

Whether it’s a daytime tour or a golden hour cruise, nothing says coastal luxury like a private sail around The Little Harbor. Invite your guests aboard a chartered yacht or sailboat for a laid-back, sun-soaked celebration the day after the ceremony. Elevate it even further with light appetizers and champagne. Be sure to invite your photographer along to capture that candid post-wedding joy and the beauty of the New Hampshire coastline. 

Pickleball Tournament  

For couples looking to add a bit of friendly competition and guaranteed laughs to their celebrations, pickleball offers a fun twist after all the wedding indulgences. This fast-growing sport is perfect for bringing guests back together after the big day and with courts available just about everywhere it’s a simple way to keep the party going!  

A Culinary Adventure 

For food-loving couples, a hands-on culinary event is both interactive and indulgent. Partner with a local chef or caterer to host a signature New England cooking experience. From oyster-shucking demonstrations with bubbly pairings to a chowder-making class with custom recipe cards, this is a delicious and unique way to wrap up your wedding weekend. 

Wine or Brewery Tour 

Let your guests taste the region with a curated wine or brewery tour. It’s a relaxed, yet refined way to continue the celebration. Whether you opt for a private tasting or a guided tour, these are great farewell events to give guests one last moment together before heading home. 

Local favorites include LaBelle Winery and Loaded Question Brewery. 

Picture-Perfect Pampering 

After a full day (and night) of celebration, treat yourselves – and your wedding party – to a day of self-care. It is a peaceful way to recover, recharge, and reflect on the weekend’s magic. Consider a private seaside yoga session or massages at a nearby spa – such as Thrive Med Spa & Wellness
