Default Las vegas wedding

Hello, my name is Kevin, I'm new here. My fiancee and I are trying to plan a vegas wedding for this fall. Seeing is that both of us are in Minnesota, it has been kind of diffucult for us to pick a company to go with in Vegas. I have been working with the Garden Of Love, but after countless attempts to get emails from them, I have given up. IMO if they are not competent enough to send a simple email, why would I trust them with my wedding day?

My point I'm trying to get to is, can anyone recommend a reputable company to go with to plan our Las Vegas wedding? We were planning on a Valley of Fire wedding.

Hi Kevin, welcome to Pash and congrats on your engagement.

We have a few members who were married in Vegas so I'm sure they'll pop in soon and share their experience.

As for you - share some details! How did your propose, etc?

well my fiancee is not the type of person that likes suprises, but I knew I was going to get her with this one. I got the ring made, and luckily it was done 1 day before we left for vacation in Florida. My parents own a condo down there so that is where we stayed for the week. About the 2nd day there we took a walk down to the beach, sat and watched the sunset, and then I asked her to marry me. The look on her face was priceless, she didn't see that coming at all.

so does anyone have any first hand experience dealing with wedding planners in Las Vegas? I am basically debating between 2 companies:

www.lvwc.com
and
www.lvgardenoflove.com

Any recommendations or suggestions?

I cant see the second one's website. I am not sure..... I have seen the first website before. I would talk to both and see who you feel more comfortable with and who you feel like you can trust more. Maybe they can direct you to talk to people whose weddings they have planned before.....like references?

What about the Venician (Venice, Italy themed hotel in Vegas?)
http://lasvegas.com/weddings/hotelchapels/venetian.html

this is a pretty good link to Vegas Wedding info.
http://lasvegas.com/weddings/index.html


Just do a search from the top menu of "married in Vegas" and a bunch of old threads will pop up for you.
