If you've been lucky in the game of love, there's no better place to tie the knot than the state of Nevada. Featuring glittering, fast-paced wedding hot spots such as Las Vegas and Reno, Nevada also boasts spectacular mountain ranges, gorgeous desert scenery and the largest mountain lake in the entire United States, Lake Tahoe, know for its vibrant blue hues.
Long known as the Wedding Capital of The World, Nevada's epicenter of weddings is fabulous Las Vegas. The city's commitment to easy, quick and fun weddings is unimaginable in any other place besides Las Vegas. From magnificent, ultra formal wedding ceremonies at the Bellagio to fun, casual Elvis-led weddings at the Graceland Wedding Chapel, Las Vegas can satisfy whatever wedding dream you may desire. I should know -- I had my dream Las Vegas wedding in 2004.
Looking for something a little more low key than glitzy Las Vegas? Reno offers many of the same types of wedding chapels and packages as Las Vegas; however, less competition means you'll be able to get married on the date that you've got your heart set on, and usually for a cheaper price.
Gambling meccas not your style? Secluded national and state parks, wildfires preserves and old-fashioned mining towns can act as serene wedding backdrops. Lake Tahoe's sparkling blue beaches and opportunities for outdoor adventures serve as outdoorsy couple's ideal wedding location. Dramatic, rocky crags and deep valleys make Red Rock Canyon a photographer's dream. The wide-open desert sky's the limit in Nevada.
The Nevada Wedding Guide will help you plan your dream wedding, whether your dream involves a ceremony in full Star Trek gear or a dreamy wedding in a horse-drawn sleigh in Lake Tahoe.
