Vegas Wedding
 

Hi, guys, I need some advice. I want to renew my vows this summer in Vegas. Ideas on finding a VERY inexpensive chapel that includes photography?

Calling Jill.....

Thanks,
Silver

I believe its called The Elvis Chapel... Let me check with my parents. They got the ceremony, the video, the limo, a cake, flowers and certificate I wanna say it was something like $200.

I'll ask tomorrow and get back to you! :)

You rang???????? :D

My favorite is of course:
Excalibur (where we got married)

You were on a Wedding Story?!?! :eek:

Oh man.. I'm going to have to watch them vigilantly to se if I can see you!:D

Please keep the info coming! :) I knew I count count on my GC sisters!

Do you know about the Little White Wedding Chapel or the Tropicana Island Wedding Chapel?

Jill, did you mention in a post one time that there is a Las Vegas wedding thread somewhere on the web? With pix?

This place is really nice. I thought it was going to be WICKED cheesey.. but it was nice. My mom said she "Highly Reccomends" this chapel. She told me to tell you he check it out. :)

The people were really nice, and the guy who impersonates Elvis, sings really well and is a really nice guy. :)

Oh no, NOT on a wedding story. They have a gallery of brides and grooms on the TLC website. Mine is posted under October 2002


We were featured in a destination wedding article though on another site:

Also the Wedding channel board has a Vegas bride thread that is pretty good with great advice:

Silver, you are too sweet! :)

I thought it would be the coolest thing to elope to Las Vegas for our wedding, but Mr. KR nixed the idea. He's so traditional and I'm so off-the-cuff that it's amazing we've been happily married so long!

go renew your vows there! make it a family vacation :)

Thanks, everyone!
I narrowed down my list to three! DZPlymouth, I am so glad that you asked your mom. "A Las Vegas Wedding chapel" is on my list, and I think that it also goes by the name of "A Elvis Chapel." I am so glad to hear that it is nice and not cheesy!

So here are my three choices.....

A Las Vegas Wedding Chapel About $215 for what we want including all tips/fees/etc.....
Chapel
Candlelight Service
Music
Single Rose
24 Photo Negatives
Video of Ceremony
Limousine Service
Minister
Wedding Certificate Holder

A Hollywood Wedding Chapel About $225 for what we want including all tips/fees/etc....
Chapel
Music
Rose Bouquet (I belive this is a silk bouquet..)
Boutonniere (Again, I belive this is a silk.)
24 Photo Negatives
Video of Ceremony
Limousine Service
Minister
Bottle of Champagne

Little White Wedding Chapel on the Strip About $265 for a night gazebo wedding and what we want including all tips/fees/etc....
Chapel or Gazebo
Music
12 Pictures (I believe 4x6) taken by a Photographer and negative
Rose Presentation
Boutonniere
Minister

The Little White Wedding Chapel is actually on the strip and very pretty on the outside. The other two are "store front" chapels...so it is a toss-up. What do you think?

I'm partial to this one.. only because my parents had their service there and they were GREAT. Its off the beaten path a bit, so its a lot nicer (so I thought) We did check out a few others.

Kind of funny/mini hijack.. when I called my mom to ask her.. she FREAKED and was all "Are you running away and getting married?!?! TELL ME!" I busted a gut laughing ;)

Besides that, any one you choose, I'm sure it will be a great choice:)

How long have you been married? Do you have kids?

I was my mom's "Maid Of Honor" for her 2nd wedding. Her first wedding, her best friend, conincidentally also named Ann was her MOH. (Not coincidentally, I was named after her :p)

PS:
They are the same place :) My mom double checked because she checked it out on the web and then looked at her things, it all of her stuff had both names.

Oh I didn't know that! I used to watch the show on the Travel Channel called "2 for Las Vegas" about couples planning their weddings in Vegas. They used the Little White Chapel a lot. If we didn't have 30 guests, we probably would have used one of the stand alone chapels. Most of our guests stayed at the Luxor and we married at the Excalibur.

Oh yes, you MUST take some portraits at the Bellagio! Hire a photog for a couple of hours (or get a friend to do it). We hired a photographer and he did a good job (and was rather inexpensive)
