Kelly & Nate – Wedding Reception at Maggiano’s Little Italy
Here are the wedding reception photos from Kelly and Nate’s wedding at Maggiano’s Little Italy!
Tall centerpiece of black magic roses, mango calla lilies, cream mini calla lilies, cream asiatic lilies, and jamestory orchids:

Kelly wanted to surprise her father by having an Elvis impersonator at their wedding. Her father is a HUGE fan and it was also his birthday. For most of the night, he was observing and enjoying his daughter’s wedding but when our Elvis arrived, he began to completely loosen up and it was so much fun to see!

Wedding cake with fresh red roses and a hint of Las Vegas. Red Velvet & White Cake with Pear Brandy flavors.

Guest Blog Post: Honeymooning in Vegas? Elegance is Possible
Written by: Lourdes Gutierrez of Best of Vegas
You’ve gone through the process of getting a marriage license and pulled off a quaint Vegas wedding. You’ve managed to avoid the stereotype of shotgun, drive thru weddings and now want to celebrate your union in a way only Las Vegas lets you. Newlyweds, we know you’ll want to party at Las Vegas nightclubs and dine at the finest Las Vegas restaurants, but what about having a great hotel room to honeymoon in?
We know Vegas is famous for doing things over the top, but there are plenty of elegant hotel suites that can give you a beautiful honeymoon experience full of luxury and relaxation. At the Wynn Las Vegas you will be surrounded by beautiful landscapes of waterfalls, lakes and colorful gardens. This 5-star hotel even features original oil paintings by Monet and Picasso. Those of you that book a suite to honeymoon in will enjoy a private gated entry as well as private pools and cabanas. If you’re in the mood for dancing you can head to club Tryst or fulfill your sushi craving at the Okada restaurant.
At the Encore, the “younger and flirtier” sister of the Wynn, you will be able to enjoy marble and limestone suites that feature flat panel TV’s and glass showers as well as the Wynn Dream Beds (which both the Wynn and the Encore have). There is a beautiful atrium with various types of flowers and butterfly tiles decorating the surroundings. You can dine at the Sinatra and Botero Steak Restaurants or just order room service and peer out at Las Vegas from your suite’s 2 story windows.
At the Palazzo you will enjoy the luxuries of The Venetian sister hotel. This hotel literally looks like a palace and is the home to the runaway hit show Jersey Boys. All suites have dual vanities, 3 LCD TV’s, separate soak tubs and incredible marble showers. You can party at hotspot LAVO nightclub, where you might just bump into some of your favorite stars. If you get hungry you can dine at the famous fusion restaurant, SushiSamba.
No matter which of these hotels you choose for your Las Vegas honeymoon you can find beauty and elegance in each one. Make your Vegas wedding memorable and classy at the Wynn, the Encore or the Palazzo.
Wynn Las Vegas
Wynn Las Vegas is one of my favorite hotels in Las Vegas. Green Orchid Events planned a beautiful wedding for Sarah and Geoffrey who tied the knot in the Lavender Wedding Salon at Wynn Las Vegas in April.
Be on the lookout for their feature and story on The Vegas Wedding Planner blog.

Couture Wedding Invitations from Lela New York

This gorgeous invitation designed by Lela New York in enclosed in a deep red silk box. Even though it was created using the Chinese heritage and Independence day theme of the bride, the invitation made me think of the new Encore Las Vegas Resort. Encore has a butterfly motif in the entire resort.
Wouldn’t this have been a lovely invitation for a grand opening Encore party for VIPs?
