My friend and his gal are getting hitched and want to in Vegas on April 20th. Each to there own......

Any suggestions as to chapels, package tours including the wedding, pr any other details for one planning a Las Vegas small wedding.

Pretty much all the major hotels have their own chapels as well. A couple of years ago we saw people getting married on a bridge over the canal at the Venetian, at St. Marks Square.

It looked like a romantic thing to do, until we noticed the next party lining up on the brige steps, and the party after that collecting at the canal side.....

We also saw a newly married couple having a "caricature" of them being drawn instead of weeding pictures, at the top of the Stratosphere!

I think you can get whatever kind of wedding in Vegas that you want - but remember the wedding license office is no longer open 24 hours a day....

Sitting in the Buffet in your wedding dress, even if its Bellagio, just seems to be a little bit tasteless. And I was shocked at how many did!

I got married last year at the Grand Canyon and stayed in Vegas. Really can't recommend it highly enough, something totally different and the wedding photos are out of this world!

Don't do the drive through wedding type thing though. Saw tons of people doing it and it just looks tacky.

I can vouch for the Wynn, they offered an excellent service for us last year.

Most places supply their own person to do the vow's.

If they have a choice take a look at this guy, he is great, he did ours and a couple of friends.
