    Hey fellow bees! After MUCH consideration, my man and I have decided to have a small (24 guests) Las Vegas wedding. This will be just us and our closest friends and immediate family. After, we will go to a Thai restaurant (our first date was at a Thai place) with everyone. I am so not high maintenance when it comes to this stuff, and I really like this idea. My only issue is, I need to find a little las vegas wedding place that is NOT trashy and gross! We are doing this mainly because of finances, but I don't want my wedding to end up being nasty in the process of saving toooonnnnsssssssss of money with this option.

    So my question for you is, if you had a Vegas wedding, or have been to one, which chapel/gazebo (I like the gazebo idea better I think) would you recommend?

    Nikole

    you should look at some of the chapels in the hotels.  i know bellagio is very popular but many of the other hotels have chapel packages for small weddings. 

    i'm doing a las vegas wedding, and although small in my family's standards, is considered normal or large for other folks.  we're having about 200 guests at a country club ballroom.  we did look at a few places that had ceremony only packages. 

    The Emerald at Queensridge has a beautiful ceremony location and I believe you can choose for the ceremony only option.  Victoria's outdoor area is very pretty and their chapel is not bad.  The reception room was a little cheesy for us.  The Westin was going to close down the pool area for us.  The Grove and Rainbow Gardens also had nice gazebo ceremony locations.  The arbor at Angel Park Golf Course is also very beautiful.  Another option is to rent one of the hotel suites and do something in a suite.  We went to a wedding with less than 60 people and they had their party inside the penthouse suite at a Hyatt Regency.  (The ceremony was at a church.)

    @malisa0607: The Grove looks so cute. I would really like that one I think. Thank you for all of your suggestions and info! Your 200 guests is a lot to me! However my family is pretty big too, and I am going to invite only a few of them.

    Hi!
    I'm with Chapel of the Flowers and we are a Chapel on the Las Vegas Strip that focuses on making each of our couple's weddings intimate, elegant and legendary and we truly live up to that! We are not the seedy chapel many think of and can work with you on any budget. We also have a gazebo, although we recommend no more than 20 guests for those ceremonies. We also have a beautiful Glass Gardens area that's outdoors and gorgeous and full of glass flowers everywhere - truly unique! Please check out our website or our reviews on WeddingBee.com for more info. 

    Congratulations on your engagement! 
    Best,

    Aimee

    My sister did a vegas wedding and she used this chapel:

    http://www.702wedding.com/live/

    The reason she chose this chapel was because it has 3 different areas you can get married in. Also it can be veiwed online so the people at home that cant make it to the wedding can still see the wedding! They have great packages which would include photos and flowers!

    You should check them out!

    Plus if you go on their site you can veiw the live feed to see what it would be like!

    Hi...I'm getting married on the observation deck of the Eiffel tower at the Paris...it's pretty reasonable (we paid 2800) for the ceremony, photos, video, flowers, everything.

    Hi, good luck, it will be so much fun!

    We got married at The Little church of the West. It was so cute, I really loved the JP we got. However, I will warn you that the ceremony is fast, they have a ton of rules (with the packages) and the price is a bit higher- all because of the history behind it. But that's why we chose it. If we were going to get married in Vegas, we had to do it old-school Vegas! :)

    I am a Vegas local for over 20 years. If you dont want cheesey dont do a chapel. Some of the hotels have ok ones. Emerald at Queens is nice and very affordable...Did you want indoor or out. It sounds like out. Let me know and I can point you in the right direction.
