Destinations

From the kitschy to the surreal to the fantastic, America is whatever you can imagine it to be. But Tocqueville and Kerouac and Codrescu all taught us that you have to go find the real thing yourself, if nothing else. America is big and broad and as different as can be. It's meant to be discovered and rediscovered and transformed and changed by the person who seeks it.

The "meaning" and "consequences" of America changes each time you look at it, and the position you look at it from. So we decided to take a good one. And try to find some of the lovely things we got goin' here.

We decided to see America through the lens of two people in love.

Here are some of the locations we're thinking about. More locations, as well as dates and times, coming soon.

Thorncrown Chapel

Eureka Springs, Arkansas

We can look at photos of this place for hours. And seeing the modern organic design makes me think of Arkansas in a whole new light. I can't imagine a more perfect place for the first "official" wedding on our journey.

Chapel of the Transfiguration

Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming

This is stunning. No question. And that picture, um, that's from inside the chapel. It's the window behind the alter looking out at the mountains. If we can afford it, this is going an amazing stop for sure.

Arches National Park

Moab, Utah

Okay, so that's not us in the photo. Yet! But whoever that couple is, they had an awesome idea. With natural wonders like this, maybe it's okay that there aren't any bars in the state.

Town of Albino Squirrels?

Olney, Illinois

We're there! White squirrels for a white wedding. Perfect. I hope we can book the local park. Has a flash mob wedding ever happened? Maybe we should do it in Olney!

The Titanic

Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

The Titanic? Really? Okay this isn't borderline ridiculous; it is ridiculous. But what the hell? We'll find some cool 20s outfits and make it fun. I may even grow one of those thick mustaches from back in the day.
