In the end it comes down to what you are comfortable in. I always dreamed of the "princess wedding gown" but as soon as I was in the dressing room I knew it wasn't for me. Tea length gowns have always looked better on me then the traditional ball gown and I am very excited for my FI to see me in it on our big day! Good luck on your search and post pictures when you can

Thank you so much for the feedback! LA923 I check out Trip Advisor and from the reviews there I no longer think Mandalay Bay is a contender. I didn't realize how far away it was from everything. IMAFOXX thanks on the September tip! I would love to get some R&R by the pool while we are there, I'm sure my FI is going to want to gamble some that would be perfect! Telly032 since you live in vegas have you or any one else heard anything about timeshare promotions? A girl at work used one for free boarding on her honeymoon and because she was so young they didn't make her sit through a presentation. Has anyone tried something like this? I also just got an email for a promotion at the Mirage for $79 a night in November. Has anyone stayed here? Is it pretty close to the action?

I know how you feel! There are so many different venues it can be a little overwhelming! We are looking at working with Scenic Las Vegas Weddings because their packages are very reasonable and their photographer is amazing! Now we are just struggling to find a hotel to stay at (neither of us have been to Vegas). Good Luck and keep us posted!

My FI and I just decided that we are going to elope to Vegas sometime next year (2011)!! I'm so excited because neither of us have been to the city but we've joked about getting married there since we met so it seems perfect for us! I am so happy i found this thread! <3

My FI and I are going to be eloping in Vegas next year but are still trying to figure out the details. Neither of us have been to Vegas so we are trying to find a nice hotel for a decent price. Our entire budget for our elopement is $4,000. I really like the look of Mandalay Bay but would love to hear some reviews from people who have stayed there if it is worth the money. I would love to book a beautiful hotel but get my moneys worth. Plus what is the best time to travel and still get to enjoy warm weather? We're from Ohio so we would love to travel in the fall but if its too cold to go swimming we are willing to change plans. Also we are interested in some reviews of the better restaurants in town any suggestions? Thanks!!
