Bachelor/ette in Vegas!!

Well . . . let's just say there are few more fabulous places to have a bacholor/ette party than in Vegas. Some wedding chapels now offer bachelor/ette events as an enticement for booking your wedding in their facility. Why not do it?  It is certain, you'll have an experience no one will ever forget?

Yes--yes, keep in mind the soul mate out there of whom you are about to marry.  But, watch La Reve, go to Emeril's and dance at Studio 54 until the break of dawn.  You won't regret it!  What ever you do in the name of love, may it succeed.

Have a good weekend and cheers!

The Planning Groom . . .


For some grooms it is fabulous to plan the wedding⸻ it happens quite often.  I think most of us assume the bride or the mother of the bride are the usual planners of this important day.

On occasion, there are grooms that assume the position and make all of pertinent choices. Who else knows the bride better than the proposed intended, right?

I have a few tips for the groom who happens to be making the decisions:

  • Be sure to know what kinds of flowers she would like in her bouquet. Just because she likes daises doesn't mean she would like them in her bridal bouquet.
  • Know her exact size if buying a dress and shoes.
  • Think twice about planning the wedding as a surprise. She may have preconceived ideas for her perfect wedding day.
  • Keep in mind, many grooms who plan weddings are successful and the day goes off just fine.
  • If you are going to do any sort of surprise, surprise her with the proposal.
What ever you do in the name of love, may it succeed.

Cheers and have a great week,

Connie

Exceptional, Impeccable, Nice.

When shopping for a fabulous reception facility there are several things to consider when perusing the options. Exceptional cuisine, impeccable service and a nice venue should be at the top of the list.

Many hotel banquet facilities have banquet chefs on duty to ensure the items on the menu are prepared to a certain standard.  Likewise, there are many catering services that have banquet captains to ensure the quality of the service provided by the wait staff.  At the very least, the hotels offer banquet rooms on par with those found in meeting facilities anywhere.

A location offering all of these things is not hard to find in Las Vegas. However, it may be a good idea to have a referral from the wedding facility or at least from a friend who has hosted an event using the prospective service. When calling be sure that the staff is willing to combine their expertise with your vision of the wedding day.

Have a wonderful week!

Cheers,

Connie
