Need advice with having a Las Vegas Wedding? Here are some valuable tips to know.
According to Las Vegas Weddings expert Carlyne Graves, when the arrows of Cupid find their mark, more and more of the time they land in Las Vegas, the official wedding capital of the world. The Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce estimates that each year more than 100,000 couples exchange vows in "Sin City." As a result, a cottage industry has developed: Las Vegas wedding services. Elvis, Joan Collins, Michael Jordan, Clint Eastwood, Bette Midler, and hundreds of other celebrities have chosen Las Vegas to tie the knot. And more and more non-celebrities are joining them.
No city in the world is better equipped to help make wedding dreams come true and create a memorable nuptial experience than Las Vegas. As of 2006, there are some three-dozen wedding chapels that offer packages to suit every budget and desire. You can go the no-frills route for as little as $75 or, literally sky's the limit. You can get married in the air on a helicopter!
And the better wedding services offer all the extras you would ever need at your fingertips, like bridal and formal wear stores, limousine services, photographers, entertainers, caterers, banquet facilities, bakeries, florists, jewelers and more.
The key is to choose an experienced wedding professional or wedding consultants to ensure your big day goes as planned. Perhaps the best part about Las Vegas weddings is that when the ceremony is over, a fabulous honeymoon is waiting for you right outside the chapel doors!
