Viva Las Vegas! Many tourists come to Vegas for one of two reasons: to gamble or to get married. If you’re the latter of the two, here are a few helpful tips for planning the ultimate Las Vegas wedding.
If you’re on a tight budget and want to make this as affordable as possible, consider booking off-season. Because there will be less competition, rates across town will likely be lower. Check with local vendors, casinos, hotels, and restaurants to see which time of year they can offer you the best deal.
Some venues will take care of all the planning for you, including flowers, photography, and videography. This oftentimes gets you the best deal, but you’ll still want to compare the rates to those offered by services you pay for individually.
Some tourists forget Vegas is the desert. In other words, it’s hot. Really hot. Even in the dead of winter, it’s hot. Plan accordingly! If you’re looking to have an outdoor wedding, you might want to stay away from the summer months, when the air is so hot you can’t even breathe.
Also, remember the climate is very arid. If you’re used to humidity, be prepared, because the dryness can really catch people off guard.
This is primarily about your own comfort and safety, but it can also affect your floral arrangements, food, and your makeup and clothing. Who wants to be a sweaty mess on their wedding day? Not you.
Yes, it’s easy to have a spur-of-the-moment wedding in Las Vegas, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to fill out the same paperwork all other newlyweds must. This includes completing a marriage application and obtaining a license.
Are you visiting from an international destination? If so, you’ll want to check up on their laws to confirm if you’ll need to complete any additional paperwork in preparation for your return home.
Paper wedding announcements sent through the mail are so yesterday. Instead, create a website specifically for you and your significant other, so everyone else can join in the celebration online.
