Las Vegas Wedding Chapels

Las Vegas Wedding Packages

Las Vegas Wedding Chapels offer wedding packages to suit any budget.  If you do not have the opportunity to visit the Las Vegas Wedding Chapels before making a reservation, here are a few things to know.

Misleading Websites
Some Las Vegas Wedding Chapels have beautiful websites to promote their business.  However, location it everything.  Use Google Maps street view to check out the property and surrounding area.

Photography
Ask any potential wedding venue to see the work of their in-house photographers.  Some wedding chapels hire a professional photographer for the images on their websites, but what you receive may not be as good.  Ask to see actual photos from a real wedding.

Flowers
Something that is often looked over with an inexpensive Las Vegas Wedding.  Check with your potential wedding venue to see what flowers are included in your wedding package.  Silk or real?  Are they mine to keep?

Guest count
Some Las Vegas Wedding Chapels are known to charge you for the number of guests who will be attending. 

Tax and Service Fees
The Nevada state tax is currently 8.1%.  Some wedding venues will also add on a service fee.  Be sure to check before making your non-refundable deposit.

Minister Fee
Most ministers in Las Vegas are independent contractors, so it is normal to have their fee advertised separately to the wedding package.

Tips
Always welcome but you should never feel obligated.


Most independent wedding chapels are located in the downtown area of Las Vegas.  The one exception is the Little Church of the West.  The chapel is on the registry of historic places and has been granted permission to be the only wedding chapel on the Las Vegas Strip.  Sitting on one acre of manicured grounds the Little Church of the West has been the choice for wedding couples and celebrities since 1942.

Honeymoon - New Zealand

Let’s face it: planning a wedding can be hard, and is sure to be stressful. Yes, you are planning a celebration of your love and it should be fun and exciting, but sometimes the planning itself can drain away some of that love and excitement. That’s why you get to plan the honeymoon, too. Our recommendation? Any time you start to think eloping might be the way to go, just to free yourself of the wedding planning, take a break and work on planning your honeymoon, instead. It’s a different kind of planning altogether, and you are planning an event solely for the two of you—not the two of you and all your family and friends. The first step in planning a honeymoon is to pick your destination. This is the beginning of a series of blog posts where we will highlight 5 international honeymoon destinations. Today’s destination? New Zealand!
New Zealand has a wide variety of activities. From swimming or sunbathing on the beach, to river rafting, to hiking or fishing in the lakes, you will be able to find something for both of you to enjoy. There are day tours of the island’s active volcanoes, and resorts that offer all of the amenities. You might even get luck and get to see the flightless birds that are native to New Zealand—the kakpo and the kiwi. New Zealand is perfect for outdoorsy couples who are looking for both luxury and adventure.
Another easy way to relieve some of the stress of planning your wedding is to let someone help you! Call us here at The Little Church of the West–we would love to help make your wedding day your perfect day.
