Friends and family traveled over 5000 miles to Fabulous Las Vegas to witness Andy & Maria exchange wedding vows on October 23rd, 2009 at Caesar’s Palace. After the ceremony I took the bride & groom on a tour of the strip, visiting a handful of my favorite nooks as well as a few new locations. With Vegas growing so fast I don’t think it will ever be possible to say I’ve shot it all, but I can definately try!! After hitting it hard we headed for Palms Casino Resort, where the entire wedding group had taken over the Island Bar while waiting for us.
We fetched them and proceeded upstairs to the world famous “Party Floor”, a collection of themed fantasy suites. Inspired by the decor of GhostBar, the “g-Suite” was pretty hip. Lots of chrome, lcds in every crevice including the floors. Once I spotted the pool table I knew it was on! It’s one of those shots that you have always wanted to do, and its so satisfying to finally get a chance with a flexible bride & groom and a ridiculously cool location. (image above)
What’s with the cupcakes you say? If you have not yet had a cupcake from the Cupcakery, etc. please join us in 2009 and go try one! Doesn’t matter what flavor, they are all good, and quite the trend at weddings this past year. No complaints here, after so many years of trying wedding cake I just might be caked out.
And finally, there was one gem that deserves mention, and another add to my list of very, very cool and unique wedding ideas. You may have to read this twice, and you most certainly will have to take a few seconds to ponder the possibilities and/or create a visual for yourself: Mashed Potato Martini Station.. Yeah! Lobster, bacon, cheese, etc…. mixed for you and served 007 style.
