Tips for Las Vegas Hotel Weddings

Las Vegas hotel weddings are by far the most popular wedding option in this great city. Many people think of saying their vows in an old shack when they consider a wedding in Las Vegas however this is far from reality for most couples. You can have a completely exotic and spectacular wedding in a Las Vegas hotel/casino. The only limit will be your imagination and your budget, with many weddings costing many thousands of dollars if you choose to take up the high class options. Alternatively you can hold Las Vegas hotel weddings on a smaller budget.

Some of the large Las Vegas hotels and casinos that offer weddings are:

MGM Grand
Four Seasons
Venetian
Bellagio
Mandalay Bay
Treasure Island
Excalibur
Caesars Palace
Flamingo Hotel

All of the above hotels are considered some of the best in Vegas and as such have lovely wedding facilities. The Caesars Palace wedding venue has three outdoor choices. There is a garden, fountain and pond to provide beautiful backdrops. The Bellagio offers an outdoor two level terrace with a great view of the lake and fountains. Then there is the often looked past Flamingo Hotel with its whopping five outdoor wedding spots to choose from, some with waterfalls!

The great thing about a hotel wedding is that you generally stay at the same place where you have your wedding, eliminating the need for after-wedding transport. You can save considerably amounts of money here.

Most hotel/casino weddings will take care of specifics for you if you ask them to. Alternatively you may wish to organise most of your wedding yourself. If that is the case you will need to consider the following:

Indoor or Outdoor - Most hotels and casinos offer both indoor and outdoor chapels and reception venues.

Weather - If you have an outdoor wedding plan it for a mild time of year. Las Vegas gets prohibitably hot in summer so spring time is usually a better choice.

Witnesses - Some hotels and chapels provide a witness, particularly if you are having a very small wedding. Otherwise you may choose your own witnesses.

The Official/Minister - Will you use a priest or celebrant? A minister is provided in most chapels and hotels for either a religious or civil ceremony but keep in mind you may not be able to bring your own minister.

Number of Guests - Most hotels can cater for small and large parties but enquiry in advance so that you pick a venue to meet your required numbers.
