Who doesn´t love a great wedding? Las Vegas weddings are famous for being accessible to anyone and fast. Even some of the top Hollywood and music stars have jumped on the Las Vegas wedding bandwagon. It´s such a quick way to tie the knot that it can be hard to resist.

Getting married in a cute little chapel that looks like something straight out of a young girl´s dream book is the way to make your wedding day special. If you have the chance, why not opt for the classic version of a Las Vegas wedding, in a sweet, romantic wedding chapel that will help you create memories for a lifetime?

Despite a huge percentage of Las Vegas weddings being planned last minute, there are still quite a few that are booked ahead of time and set up early. That´s probably the best way to do things if you know you want to be married in Las Vegas. It allows you to book ahead so you can get the date and time that you want. You can also make any special arrangements ahead of time so your wedding day can be just perfect.

While many people think that all Las Vegas weddings are pretty tacky, that´s not actually the case. You can have a very elegant, beautiful Las Vegas wedding and if you aren´t interested in the traditional Elvis attendance, that´s not a problem. Always an option, of course, but not mandatory!

A more traditional wedding is completely possible in Las Vegas. If you want to enjoy a beautiful setting, flowers and great Las Vegas wedding photos, that is definitely an option. There are actually a variety of chapels that offer very lovely areas to tie the knot.

Most Las Vegas weddings also include a DVD option, so you can watch your wedding day over and over. Also, while the typical Las Vegas wedding is just the couple and witnesses tend to be any impersonators or other person who happens to be at the chapel, that doesn´t mean you can´t have more people with you. Talk to the chapel ahead of time to find out what the capacity is.

Las Vegas weddings can be as beautiful and unique as you want. There´s no need to settle for a tacky one if that isn´t what you want.

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.

Please feel free to contact me if I can assist you with your Vegas Wedding plan!!!!

Las Vegas truly has it’s fair share of history but many of the historical landmarks have since disappeared. The Sands where Sinatra and the Rat Pack showcased their talents has since been demolished and the Aladdin where Elvis and Priscilla exchanged vows was leveled and expanded. So for a simple wedding chapel to stand in the same exact spot spot for over fifty years is simply amazing.

A Storybook Wedding Chapel is now a a Las Vegas landmark and those who want to get married can book the Let’s Get Hitched Wedding Package in Las Vegas. Various celeb couples have walked down the aisle here including Jon Bon Jovi, Michael Damian, Billy Ray Cyrus and more. The chapel has also been in many movies, including ‘Fools Rush In’ and ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas’.

This chapel is a full-service wedding facility offering fresh flowers or silk arrangements, limo service, professional photography, DVD video production and more.

Starting from USD $107.00 per person
