Weekend Plans in Marion

Family in town? Friends visiting for the weekend? Or just looking for something new close to home? Make Sea Love part of your Marion plans.

Your Go-To Weekend Plan When Guests Come to Town

Whether you're hosting out-of-town family, planning a weekend getaway, or showing friends around town, Sea Love offers a beautifully different way to spend time together.

Sit down at our scent bar and create a custom fragrance together, the kind of afternoon your guests will be talking about long after they head home. Most experiences take about 45 to 60 minutes, so Sea Love fits easily between brunch, a stroll through town and dinner.

Bring Everyone Along

Out-of-town family, friends in for the weekend or the neighbors from down the street, everyone gets a seat at the scent bar and a memory to share.

Locals Welcome, Too

Live nearby? Sea Love is an easy way to show off your town, plan a staycation or try something new with friends. Our Certified Scent Stylists® will guide you every step of the way.

Find us on 7th Avenue in Uptown Marion, near local shops and restaurants, with Lowe Park and Cedar Rapids' NewBo City Market close by.
