Hop a flight to see Argosy Casino or Storm Lake or attend Black Hawk Lake Pelican Fest in April or Waterloo ArtiGras in March. Just because it's a weekend doesn't mean it won't be memorable. The important thing to remember when considering far away romantic travel with only a weekend to spare is to find something specific you especially want to experience while you're there. Consider checking out some of the great Iowa events like Rockin' in Summer in Sioux City in June or Color the Wind Kite Festival in Clear Lake in February. A weekend is definitely not enough time to explore all of Iowa, but what could be more romantic than hopping a short flight to have a romantic dinner and see a show on Saturday in Sioux City, and then enjoy brunch Sunday morning and heading home.

Imagine when you're coworkers ask you "So what did you do this weekend?" you can say "Well, on Saturday I had lunch... in Sioux City."
