So, I've narrowed it down to JW Marriott, Mandalay Bay, Wynn and Cili at Bali Hai. I have not seen any of these places in person...this is just from internet research. Can anyone tell me what they think would be the best or if they've had any bad experiences with these vendors? We hope to do a scouting trip, but not sure yet. I do not want the cheesy Vegas vibe for the ceremony. I'm looking for something nicer.

We have chosen the JW as our wedding site and could not be happier. We live in Vegas and this has always been our number one choice. Their staff will bend over backwards to accommodate us and help us. You listed all first class resorts so I'm sure that you can't go wrong with any but I have to give my vote to the JW.

When is ur wedding date?

We were married in the Chapel in the Clouds at the Top of the Stratosphere on May 26th, 2009 and LOVED it! =D

You and your guests also get free observation deck passes after your wedding and the view from the Top of the Stratosphere is AMAZING!

All your selections are excellent! The Wynn, Mandalay and Cili are all close to the strip. The Cili has beautiful views of the golf course and would have more of a country club feel. The Wynn and Mandalay are both very nice properties and will also do a great job for you.

The JW Marriott, is the only off strip property you have chosen, so if you want to get away from the Vegas feel, definitely consider them. Their property is gorgeous!

In every case, except Mandalay, I know the catering managers or chapel directors and they are all very competent professionals who will do a great job for you.

Thanks for the info ladies! I'm trying to decide between March 27 or June 12th. I like that Cili is close to the strip and includes a lot of stuff but I worry that it might have an 80's feel to it. ?? Never been there so I may be way off.

theshesh--Do you know how long it takes to get from the strip to the JW? Do most brides get a bus/van/limos?

I just held a Las Vegas Wedding Network event at Cili a couple of weeks ago. They have just completely redecorated and definitely gorgeous, not an 80's look at all. Kathy Dyke and Nicole her assistant are wonderful to work with and will be able to guide you through every step of the way.

You can not go wrong with Cili!
