The Strip

Reviewed By DaveFleck - Toronto, Canada

The Las Vegas Strip is simply amazing to see. My first time in Vegas Amazing people watching Amazing photography Amazing shopping Amazing Restaurants/Food Amazing Casinos (Many of course) Amazing Shows/Entertainment Bring comfortable running shoes as the strip is massif. You could not possibly walk the entire strip and see everything in one day. Don't forget to check out one of the most amazing and only free things on the strip The Bellagio Fountains Show The Strip is divided up into 3 sections South, Central and North Yes the strip is that large. Bring lots of money or credit as everything is very expensive on Las Vegas Strip. We will be coming back to Las Vegas Strip many more times and would recommend to anyone to see the Las Vegas Strip at least once in their life as there is nowhere else in the world like this. You don't need to be a gambler to visit Las Vegas as there is so much to see and do however if you do gamble you will be in heaven.

Guardian Angel Cathedral

Reviewed By hrhmed - Toronto, Canada

As part of our trip we always check out churches as i love to see architecture and for more personal reason I give thanks to be able to visit the place and just plain grateful and for safety everyday. It is behind wynn hotel and considering this is a cathedral it is hidden by all the towering casino and hotel. the area is clean and the church itself is clean and very quiet. lots of stain glass windows and interesting murals. I would visit again if given a chance.

Little Church of the West

The World Famous Little Church of the West is the most iconic Las Vegas Wedding Chapel. We have been performing wedding and vow renewal ceremonies in our historic Las Vegas Wedding Chapel for over 70 years. In addition, we offer a charming Outdoor Garden Venue. Situated amongst pine trees on one acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, the chapel is located on the South end of the Las Vegas Strip, between Mandalay Bay and the famous "Welcome to Las Vegas" sign.

Reviewed By BecksBlack - Newcastle, United Kingdom

We are from the U.K. so choosing a Las Vegas chapel to get married in, we thought was going to be quite difficult as there are so many. When we saw photographs of The Little Church of the West online we were instantly intrigued as it looks so different to other chapels. With living so far away you can’t just pop in and check out every venue before you book so it was a little daunting at first and we must’ve sent hundreds of emails asking so many questions!! But we couldn’t ask for better communication. Nicole was amazing and would reply promptly answering any queries we may have had. We also liked the location of the chapel. In between Mandalay Bay and the Las Vegas sign, it seemed more intimate compared to other chapel locations; which are more clustered together at the other end of the Las Vegas strip. As soon as we arrived in Vegas we took a walk over to the chapel to view in person. The grounds of the chapel are so pretty. Very quaint and historic. The minister who performed our ceremony was also amazing! It felt very personal and we felt very comfortable. He also gave us advice on ‘what to do next’, paperwork-wise, as a British person getting married in Vegas. He was very knowledgeable and was able to do the paperwork for us to get the wedding correctly registered in the U.K. The photographer was also lovely. She captured some very memorable photographs. I maybe would’ve liked a bit more time to look at our photographs before purchasing but we knew beforehand that we had to choose our photographs immediately after the ceremony. I probably would’ve been there hours trying to choose if I was given more time!!! So we ended up buying one of the photograph packages; which we didn’t plan on buying originally but were so glad we did. It would’ve been so hard to choose a small number of photographs that were included with our package. We know most Las Vegas wedding ceremonies are fairly short but they didn’t make us feel rushed. Being able to view the video of our ceremony online too means I can relive the memories again and again!! We thoroughly enjoyed our day and so glad we made the journey to Vegas to get married. Thank you Little Church of the West for making our day so special ????????

Our Bellagio Wedding was, truly, a Storybook Tale come to life. Every second, every detail, proved magical, exquisite, and heartrendingly beautiful. Hearts were opened, spirits soared, tears were evoked. Love was always in the air. None of this could have taken place were it not for the superb work done behind the scenes by the staff. From the first moment of contact until the last, we were impressed by their care for our wishes, their attention to detail, and their enthusiastic support for our vision. Most importantly, they shouldered responsibilities, and made the project -- yes, weddings are projects! -- simple, straightforward, seamless and actually enjoyable. We wanted to offer our guests a ceremony and reception that would touch their hearts and live in their memories, and the Bellagio fully accommodated our wishes. Our January wedding took place on the Terazza overlooking the Fountains, which took to flight in song and spectacle as we were joined in matrimony. We followed with a cocktail reception and dinner at The Mayfair Supper Club, a magical place every day of the year, immersing guests in a peerless dining, design and entertainment experience. Our guests found the day, "breathtaking" from start to finish. The wedding planners, the restaurant coordinator, the Mayfair's manager, chef, cake creators and kitchen staff, servers, bartenders, and the spectacular Band, all made us feel welcome and, indeed, part of their Bellagio family. The Bellagio photography people, associated with Cashman, stunned us with the their photographs and videos. And, very stunning, all of this was provided at the most reasonable of costs. If you value magic, beauty and love, and want a wedding experience so exquisite that it will live in your, and your guests', hearts and memories always, go to the Bellagio.

The iconic volcano at The Mirage goes on every hour starting at 6pm until 11pm and you are able to watch it from the strip. We were fortunate to have had a view from our room to watch the show. It last several minutes but it is definitely cool to watch!

Benjamin Bugsy Siegel Plaque

Dedication to this infamous gangster is hidden in the Flamingo's garden.

Reviewed By 866TaylorB - Chicago, United States

I must admit that, of all the attractions in Las Vegas, the one I was most interested in seeing was the Bugsy Siegel Memorial. If you've seen the movie "Bugsy" with Warren Beatty and any of the other Luciano/Lansky/Siegel documentaries, you come away fascinated by Siegel's vision of building the original Flamingo Hotel and Casino in 1946 and turning Las Vegas from a desert hideaway into a multi-billion-dollar entertainment and gambling mecca. Today, Las Vegas offers mob museums and tours. But the Bugsy Siegel Memorial or Benjamin Bugsy Siegel Plaque remains the only important landmark to the mobster who made it all happen. Located at 3555 Las Vegas Boulevard, on the east side of The Strip, in the outdoor garden of the Flamingo Las Vegas, at the end of an open-air fuchsia canopy, in front of the Flamingo Las Vegas' wedding chapel, just north of Flamingo Road, is a bronze plaque dedicated to Siegel. He opened the original Flamingo in 1946. It stood where the garden and swimming pool of the new Flamingo now sprawl. With 77 rooms, it was the largest and most luxurious Las Vegas resort of its day. And its success paved the way for the Bellagio, MGM Grand, Mirage and Luxor, the 4,000-room giants that currently line the Las Vegas Strip. It also proved to be Siegel's undoing. Cost of construction was over $6 million, well over the mob's budget. And Siegel's penchant for publicity also displeased his fellow mobsters. He was killed only six months after the Flamingo opened. But his vision will always remain.
