Thanks for the info ladies.

Congrats! We are also getting married at the Chapel of the Flowers in the Magnolia chapel May 7, 2011. We are having an in-suite reception at our hotel. It did seem much easier to plan a Vegas wedding than an at home one. Happy planning!

We decided to have an in-suite reception (we're staying at the Platinum Hotel) but I'm not sure where we can get cold appetizers from. To those of you that live and are from Vegas, what grocery stores do you have that can provide fruit, cheese, and sandwich trays? The chapel has the option available but we're not going to pay $100.00 per tray that's crazy!

A soft grey and light yellow or dark gray and a bright yellow. The yellow we chose is a golden yellow and a bright purple.

Grey and yellow is a good combo. It's different. Our colors are purple and yellow.

We're going to stay at the Platinum hotel and their reception prices are out of our budget. We're looking to spend no more than $30 per person. Thanks! I will definitely look into Rio I've read a lot of good reviews.

Ok so we're 9 months away and have every detail figured out but where we're going to eat after the ceremony. Some people have told me to go to a buffet. I've only eaten at the luxor buffet so I need to know what hotels have good buffets? A coworker suggested harrahs and I know flamingo has a semi private room but not sure how the food will be.

It's pretty much on target and covers everything.

Welcome and congrats!! There is a ton of information on the forum to help you with planning.

We are getting married May 7, 2011 at the Chapel of the Flowers in Las Vegas. Wedding plans are finished and just started buying things we want for the ceremony and OOT bags. We finally finalized the guest list last night. We have our STDs and invites picked out but are waiting until September to send the STDs out jic we need to do another date change (FI is in the Navy). I already have my dress and we picked out his tux. Don't know what to do with myself now that everything is planned and in action.

Congrats Nicole! Happy Planning!!

I think it's up to what the both of you feel like doing and what your budget is. We are going to dinner at a restaurant and may hit a club with our friends afterwards. We also chose not to have an at home reception.

Your right there is way too much to see and do in Vegas. I've been twice and still haven't seen everything I wanted to. Make a list of the things you what to do break them up between day and night and try to do as much as possible everyday.

Welcome and congrats! This forum is the perfect place to be to start your planning. Enjoy and happy planning!

We're planning to stay at Mirage or Treasure Island never stayed there but have heard good things about them and they're in the heart of the strip. Can't help with restaurants never sat down to eat anywhere was always on the go.
