Put it this way, if you’re actually taking the plunge at a garbage dump then you have some serious problems. At a Taco Belle? What are these people thinking? Check out 5 awful places to get married at.
In English, we don’t put “at” at the end of the phrase to indicate the locative case. The preposition phrase ( or “Where”) serves this purpose. Here is the correct English phrase: “Five awful places to get married.” Adding “at” tends to make it part of the verb phrase, as if “to get married” should be “to get married at”. It is a common error, but it makes the speaker sound uneducated.
