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.
