I’ll be straight, I did the deed in Las Vegas. But, quite
frankly, I don’t consider myself of the shameful and despicable
sort. And, I’m definitely not alone. Each year, more than
150,000 couples from all over the world travel to Las Vegas to
tie the knot. Eloping to this gambling town has actually become
one of the most trendy things to do and for lots of good reasons.
A Las Vegas Wedding is Hassle Free
The State of Nevada’s laid-back marriage laws make it one of the
easiest places in the world to obtain a marriage license and to
get married. There are no blood tests required and no waiting
period. Just a quick trip to the courthouse, show some
identification (driver‘s license or passport), lay out $55 in
cash and you’re on your way.
What’s more, planning your wedding couldn‘t be easier.
Full-service Las Vegas wedding chapels and hotels with wedding
chapels typically have a wedding coordinator ready to personally
attend to your wedding arrangements right down to the last
detail. Your wedding flowers, music, photography, video or any
preparation of your ceremony can all be handled by phone or even
online.
A Las Vegas Wedding is Cheaper
No doubt about it, a Las Vegas wedding will save you money.
There are services to match just about any budget. You can have
a “just do the job” wedding ceremony for as little as $100. Not
a bad deal. A traditional Las Vegas wedding package for around
$200 will include chapel fee, a video of the ceremony, basic
flower and photo arrangements and chapel time.
On the other hand, if you want a more stylish wedding with all
the bells and whistles, you can expect to pay up to a few
thousand dollars depending on the package you choose.
Nonetheless, compared to a do-it-yourself traditional wedding,
which averages around $22,000, you’ve saved yourself a bundle.
A Las Vegas Wedding Allows You Plenty of Flexibility
You don’t have to lock in the church, minister or reception hall
a year in advance. In Las Vegas, you can book a chapel in very
short notice. In fact, in some places, you can walk in without a
reservation, depending on how busy they are. I wouldn‘t advise
this, however. Better to have a reservation and not take a
gamble.
Been There, Done That
Las Vegas weddings are extremely popular with couples who have
been married before. If you’ve already been there, done that
with a big wedding, you may take great pleasure in a relaxing
getaway for a comfortable, stress-free wedding.
Las Vegas Weddings Are Unique
If you choose to exchange vows in Las Vegas, you are not limited
to a quickie, unfashionable affair. A Las Vegas wedding can be
as stylish or as intimate as you like. If you are in the “been
there, done that” category, you may want a very simple,
get-to-the- nitty-gritty service. On the other hand, you may
prefer something a little more romantic and traditional. It’s
your choice. Elvis wedding ceremonies are very popular in Las
Vegas, as well as outdoor ceremonies and helicopter weddings
above the Strip or to the Grand Canyon.
Honeymoon Express
Your honeymoon begins immediately after the “I do’s.” What could
be a more unique place for a honeymoon than Las Vegas? And if
you brought along a wedding party, you won’t have to worry about
keeping them entertained. They’ll have all kinds of fun.
So, is getting married in Las Vegas tacky? If you’re looking for
a hassle-free, cheaper wedding with plenty of flexibility, a Las
Vegas wedding could be…well, a pretty good gamble

You will never be bored in Las Vegas. Not only is it affordable, and very luxurious but full of activities. You don't have to gamble or have a lot of money to have a great time.

All I can say is Vegas Baby!!
stay AWAY from downtown.
I live on south las vegas blvd (south strip) the nice area… there is a http://www.budgetsuites.com/ that offers weekly rates and it is nicely located by stores (cvs pharmacy, chilis 'i think', food for less and the silverton 'bass pro shop' casino is half a mile away) and freeways.
there is a bus stop right in front and no homeless people hanging out like in the downtown area
the city center is currently hiring for the end of this year and that is only a couple of miles fro here

You’re really good man. You’ve got excellent talent.
it takes a while, ugotta become a police officer too and they would probably bump you up higher since ur a lready a marine and u have training form b4
North Las Vegas is good (not the old part of town near the city hall though).
Boulder City is good, my boyfriend lives there and it's a very cute town.
I would NEVER live downtown! never. The only people who live downtown are hobos
I'm not too familiar with Henderson, but from what I've seen it seems nice, though there are probably some bad parts, as with all cities.
I'm often flying out to Vegas with work. I've used a few different websites but I'd say Expedia offer the best deal, often in terms of price and service. As a business traveller I like to know everything is taken care of which is why I tend not to go for the cheapest option.
whoa!!it looks like a PICTURE!
ur an amazing painter!:D
The further from the strip the better. The Southwest is a newer area and still building up. A lot of younger families have purchases houses in that area. It is outside of the 215 from Jones and west from there. Still has desert area out that way but quiet and safer than most. Schools are newer since it is a new area. Problem is there is no bus service to that part of the valley.
Food is actually pretty reasonable here except for bread. There is no local big name bakery here so all bread is trucked in from California. Utilities are high. Look for electric bill to be between $200 and $400 per month during the summer depending on the size and age of your home. Look for car license to be around $1000 a year depending on value and age of your car. Auto insurance is very high here.
Nice work, you did pretty good.
40 to 50 k a year. not including tips
Dude, I played craps w. Dennis Rodman in Vegas once, and it was…not so much an experience. Also, I have never heard of this place (and I go to Vegas about every other month, but I'm old, so whatever). If this is some cool happening place, I would suggest you get your bartending license and work at wherever you can, while pitching/schmoozing whoever hires bartenders at Scores. Eventually it will happen (although the place could easily become old news by then–the average lifespan of the "hot place' in Vegas is about 2 months).
Incredible! He looks so life like. Just amazing…and what a beautiful subject
the list right now is 1 1/2 years long im afraid, my dads friend needs one to put games in his bar. hes been waiting for a year now, so unless you know somebody then itll be a while. but you have to appear in front of the nevada board of gaming and present them your business plan. they really accept anybody, but you just have to wait. if you go onto the clark county website you can get more info on the board of gaming. good luck
Brilliant Willy, Just Brilliant =D
