1st Wedding Anniversary Vacation Ideas

[o803oVaDeR]

My wedding anniversary is approaching fast. Sept 3rd. I am looking for something close by that will be a fun place to take the wife. Dont have a lot of money to blow this year, so i am on a little bit of a budget. I have heard the mountains in NC are really nice. I havent been up there in a while. Anyone have any info or ideas of a good place to stay that will not cost an arm and a leg. Just looking for a weekend getaway really. Also if you have any other ideas about where we could go, could really use the help.

thanks!

I would look on LivingSocial or Groupon for trip deals.

Def hit the mnts if you are short on funds. Lots of neat B&B's up there in many places to spend a romantic weekend.

Pick the city you wanna go and do some searching... Brevard is nice, Waynesville, Sylva, lots of towns. I personally love Blowing Rock.

Asheville has good beer.

Postpone it a month or so and definitely drive up to the mountains when the leaves start to change.

I'd definitely postpone until leaf season, it's incredible up here during that time. The roads are a nightmare, but that's just because people are awestruck by the beauty. I live in Cashiers and there are plenty of B&Bs, a couple small motels and even a Hampton Inn nearby, so regardless of your lodging preferences you should be able to find something that fits. Lots of shopping if you're into that sort of thing, mainly though, if you like to hike there's a lot to be seen.

Topsail Island if you want laid back and good fishing.

Water is still warm but most of the tourists have gone home for the season, and the weather is perfect.

Just find a hotel in Asheville area. It's not blazing hot up there. Do Biltmore. Biltmore winery. Buy a massage for her at Grove Park or at the Biltmore spa. Good eats around there. If you want cheaper...lots of hiking up there and other cool stuff. Too hot/too crowded for beach for me right now.

Let's see... 1st wedding anniversary is paper. So I'm thinking just cut our a picture of her favorite place, frame it and give that to her....

Look up Fontana Village in the Smokeys. Its on the NC side right next to Fontana Dam. The Appalachian Trail runs right through there if you would like to do a day hike. Its pretty cheap as well.
