Have you ever thought of getting married in Las Vegas?
I am sure everyone has, since it is the wedding capital of the world.
Las Vegas Chapels have been portrayed in a certain light over the last decades, and times are changing. The old fashioned photos of someone knocking on the door in the middle of the night, with the husband and wife answering in the pajamas to marry the happy couple are long gone.
We are the most fun and economical place to get married!!! This town has opportunities for everyone that range from a $25.00 Drive up Wedding Window, to skies the limits! We have anything you can image from getting married by Helicopter in the Grand Canyon, or dressed as your favorite Character and married on the USS Enterprise at the Star Trek Experience.
The Las Vegas Wedding scenario has expanded from just strip chapels to chapels in the luxurious hotels, Golf Courses, Hotel Suites, Themed locations, and even at local attractions.
Several free standing chapels have changed their philosophy about just being a number game and want to create a “Vegas experience” to be remembered. The Banquet and Catering departments of hotels have seen larger groups wanting their “reception” in the banquet facilities, and some of them in their local restaurants. Again, the cost on this part of the function varies from location to time of the day your event will occur.
We are seeing larger groups coming to Vegas, as in the past it was smaller groups and a lot of just couples. There is still a great percentage of just the Bride and Groom, although when they inform their family and friends they are going to Vegas, everyone jumps on the bandwagon for the event.
The days of the $20,000 wedding still exists, although you can have a large group attend your wedding, have a fine dining reception with all the trimmings, DJ, flowers, photos, limos etc. for a portion of the cost.
Now Vegas also has created the perfect place for the last night of a single woman or man. Everyone is having Bachelorette or Bachelor parties by attending the shows that are not just for men anymore. The women can go to Chippendales or Thunder Down Under for an exotic male revue, and there are numerous Adult entertainment locations for the men. Again the cost is not prohibited.
The best part is that you can start in Vegas with your Bachelor / Bachelorette party, and then you’re wedding, and the honeymoon, while all of your guests have shared the most important day in your life, and are having a vacation for them. All at a fraction of the cost that other destination weddings cannot offer.
