Q&A: Is Las Vegas ‘romantic’ for an anniversary vacation?
Question by Bella:
Is Las Vegas ‘romantic’ for an anniversary holiday?
I have never ever been there but I usually feel of Vegas as all glitz and no substance, which is not genuinely romantic to me. I guess I think it is a party town, more for young men and women raising hell. Even so, every person who’s been there says it’d be a excellent place to go for our anniversary trip. What is your opinion?

Las Vegas Tourism Tips: The 5 Most Romantic Vegas Hotels
Las Vegas is a great place for a romantic getaway. With its incredible resort hotels and casinos, world-class dining, shopping, attractions, and accommodations, Vegas has everything it takes to make your romantic vacation or honeymoon both exciting and memorable.
Of course, certain hotels are far more romantic than others. You probably wouldn’t want to end up at Circus Circus or Excalibur, for those hotels are very popular family destinations and not exactly conducive to quiet romantic escapes.
So what resorts are the most romantic in all of Las Vegas? Read on to find out my picks for the top 5 romantic Vegas hotels.
1. The Venetian Hotel
The Venetian was built with romance in mind. From its re-creation of a Venice canal, complete with romantic gondola rides, to its incredible restaurants, amazingly beautiful lobby, world-class shopping, and luxurious rooms, the Venetian is a wonderful place to get away from it all right in the middle of Vegas.
2. Paris Las Vegas
No city is more romantic than Paris, and the Paris Las Vegas Hotel wonderfully re-creates some of the most noteworthy elements of the City of Light, from its half scale replica of the Eiffel Tower to its uniquely Parisian architecture and cuisine. Paris Las Vegas is romantic inside and out. Don’t miss sunset from the observation deck of the Eiffel Tower – it’s a sight you’ll always remember.
3. Bellagio
The Bellagio Hotel and Casino remains one of the most elegant and beautiful in all of Las Vegas. From its vast man-made lake and water fountain show, timed to Italian opera and classic Sinatra ballads, to its magnificent interior, complete with botanical gardens, an art museum, and incredible shops, the Bellagio is a world unto itself. But it’s the wonderful pool area that is my favorite element of the Bellagio, with an elegant main pool and a half dozen smaller, more private pools, all designed and landscaped like the grounds of a Mediterranean villa.
4. Red Rock Hotel and Casino
If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of the Strip for the breathtaking beauty of Red Rock Canyon on the outskirts of town, the Red Rock Hotel and Casino offers five-star luxury amidst a backdrop of natural splendor. It’s hard to believe you’re in Las Vegas when you’re at the Red Rock – it feels a world away. The natural canyon setting makes for a wonderful romantic getaway, yet you don’t sacrifice quality or service – the Red Rock is a world-class resort hotel. Of course, if you want to check out the excitement of the Strip, its a short car or taxi ride away.
5. Wynn Hotel Casino
Steve Wynn set out to redefine luxury in Vegas when he built his new casino, and boy did he succeed in doing so. The Wynn Hotel is simple yet elegant, with a sleek design, wonderfully decorated rooms, incredible landscaping (including man-made ponds and waterfalls), and elegant shops and restaurants. You will be truly pampered at the Wynn, and the level of quality and customer service make it one of the best places in all of Las Vegas for a romantic vacation or honeymoon.

Romantic Weddings At Las Vegas Hotels
While planning your Las Vegas wedding, you may consider looking at wedding packages that Las Vegas Hotels offer in addition to accommodation. The idea of getting married at the hotel where you stay while in Vegas is quite reasonable. First of all, this solution is very convenient to the newlyweds and their guests — the ceremony and the reception will be organized at one place and the guests don’t have to go to other hotels before and after the wedding. Usually the hotels offer very good deals if you buy a package from them plus the bride and the groom will get to spend a night after in a luxurious suite, with champagne, chocolate and breakfast in bed, etc. Those are just some of the extras thrown in by the hotel wedding coordinators if you decide to get married at their hotel.
Las Vegas is the place where the customers really benefit from the competition between the businesses by getting the highest quality services and products reasonably priced. Obviously, when you get married at a lavish 5-star hotel you can’t expect to get married with a budget under $1,000. Yes, it is possible in Vegas, but if you’re looking for something special, you have to pay for that. But the hotels in Las Vegas offer much more than the small chapels. The Strip hotels have both the breathtaking amenities (chapels, restaurants, suites and banquet halls) and the best-qualified professional staff — able to create for you the most romantic wedding you’ve always dreamed of.
So don’t l look for a simple Elvis wedding or a quickie drive tru ceremony when you think of getting married at one of Las Vegas hotels. Don’t you deserve to think much bigger? And whatever you dream of it will be delivered… There is practically nothing that the Strip hotels couldn’t provide. From fantastic themed weddings like the very romantic ceremonies on a Venetian-style gondola (at The Venetian) or on top of the replica of the Eiffel Tower (Paris Hotel) to saying “I do!” in an adventurous way – on the pirate ship (Treasure Island Hotel). They can even make a wedding for you based on your favorite TV show! Imagine exchanging vows on the bridge of the USS Enterprise, having Klingons and Ferengi as witnesses; yes, it’s possible, no problem… (Las Vegas Hilton Hotel).
Those are just some of the themed weddings that are becoming increasingly popular lately. The other very popular trend is offering — in addition to the traditional ceremony in the hotel’s chapel — some kind of wedding package that includes exchanging vows outdoors. Usually the ceremony is taking place in a garden (often with a gazebo or a fountain as a backdrop for nice photo opportunities) or near the pool. For example, the Aladdin Hotel, the Paris, MGM Grand, and Sahara Hotel offer poolside weddings. And as for the garden weddings, you will certainly love getting married at the majestic Wynn Las Vegas Hotel that has a secluded outdoor courtyard with trees and fountains, but you also may choose the Flamingo Hotel that has five outdoor garden locations for your nuptials that feature gazebos and waterfalls. If you’d like to get married near a pond or fountain, then Caesars Palace Hotel outdoor wedding will certainly make you happy.
Still, for those looking for more excitement during the wedding ceremony, they may choose saying “I do!” high above the ground with amazing views of the Strip below. The Eiffel Tower package mentioned already (especially the Twilight option) will suit them very well, but how about exchanging vows at the Stratosphere Hotel — at the top of the Tower, 800 feet above the ground on the outdoor observation deck…
But if the height scares you, the Bellagio Hotel may be a good choice for you, because you can get married there on a terrace overlooking their beautiful lake and the world-famous fountain show.
Those tastefully created wedding packages at the Las Vegas Strip hotels don’t come cheap, but having a great way to start new life together is well worth it. And no doubt the bride and the groom and their guests will remember for many years to come their elegant ceremony and reception. Almost every package includes video and picture sets and very often a web cam broadcast is provided so that your family and friends who were not able to come to Vegas can watch you and admire on the Internet how great you looked and how successful your Las Vegas wedding was.
And just if you’re pressing me hard to tell you how much those romantic hotel weddings are, here are some examples (naturally, they may change at any time): Eiffel Tower Wedding At Twilight Package — $10,000 (but only $3,300.00 if not at twilight…); Pirate Ship Wedding — between $2,499 and $3,199; Venetian Gondola Wedding — between $750 and $4,500; Star Trek Wedding — from $500 to $3,000.
Vow renewal packages are also available and they are very popular — because if you come to Vegas once, baby, you’ll be coming back…
