Would you prefer one of the
many destination weddings such as Red Rock Canyon, Lake Mead, and Mount
Charleston, that Las Vegas has to offer? Deciding your location is the most
important aspect of your wedding planning as it will set the whole tone for your
wedding.
2. The Officiant - Would you be
okay with a civil ceremony or would you prefer a religious ceremony? Many Las
Vegas locations including most of the wedding chapels provide you with an
officiant that provides a civil wedding ceremony but many locations can arrange
for a rabbi, minister etc. if you prefer a religious ceremony. Of course in Las
Vegas you also have the option of being married by the King himself, Elvis!
3. Flowers - Fresh or Silk? Single stem presentation or cascade bouquet? Roses,
lilies or something tropical? Las Vegas wedding locations that offer all
inclusive packages usually offer some sort of flowers with the package. If you
have your heart set on something they don't offer, you could always arrange for
your own. Many locations offer you at least a few options when it comes to
choosing your flowers. Some wedding chapels, including The Little Chapel of the
Flowers, offer their own onsite flower shop where you can pick everything from
the type of flowers that you would like to which ribbons you prefer with your
flowers. They can even special order flowers if you have a special request.
4. Music - Most Las Vegas
wedding locations offer pre recorded music for your wedding ceremony as part of
their packages. Would you prefer live music for your ceremony? A few locations
do offer live musicians as part of their packages and many others are willing to
arrange it for you at an additional cost. So if you prefer a soloist or perhaps
a cellist to the sounds of Kenny G coming from a sound system, you are in luck!
5. Photographs - Many consider
this to be one of the most important aspects of the wedding planning since your
wedding photographs are what you are going to look at for the years to come when
you want to remember your wedding day. Do you want a large photography package?
Are you interested in a lot of photographs of the ceremony, posed photos
afterwards, or both? Would you like prints or would you prefer to purchase you
pictures on a CD or disk so you can reprint them later? Some locations offer
photography packages that include the photographer going with you where ever you
want for the day. So if you dreamed of having wedding pictures taken in front of
the Bellagio's fountains, the Mirage's volcano, or at the famous Welcome to Las
Vegas sign, you are in luck!
6. Videography - Would you like
a video of your ceremony? Some locations offer the ceremony on VHS, others offer
it on DVD, some offer you a choice of the two. Many wedding chapels also offer
web cam broadcasting of the ceremony. Your wedding can be broadcast live on the
internet for friends and family to view.
7. Transportation - Do you need
transportation? Most Las Vegas wedding chapels offer limousine transportation
with their wedding packages. Although it is included with the package, a
gratuity to the limo driver is customary. Some locations offer other
transportation options are also offered. Some of the chapels with drive thru
ceremonies offer sports cars, bicycles, and even a monster truck for their drive
thru ceremony packages. If you are not getting married in a chapel and need to
find your own transportation, there are many businesses in Las Vegas that offer
limousines, luxury and sports car rentals.
8. Wedding Attire - Do you plan
to buy or rent you wedding attire? If you are in need of something to wear for
your wedding there are many locations around the Las Vegas area, including some
of the wedding chapels, that have gowns, tuxedos, and themed costumes available
to rent or purchase. Some of these businesses will even deliver right to your
hotel room for you.
These are the major decisions
that you will face when planning your Las Vegas wedding. Once you make these
decisions, you can move on to the small ones like whether or not to splurge on
that dove release!
