'''What you should know about Las Vegas Theme Weddings '''

Lets face it, non one would opt for a Vegas Theme Wedding if they were a stick in the mud. At the same time, very few of us want to turn it into a "Leaving Las Vegas" free-for-all. While what happens in Vegas is supposed to stay there and you do want to celebrate the flash and glitz of the City, you also want to strike a balance that lets your guests appreciate your good fortune and enjoy themselves. The easiest way to do this is to inject Vegas into your wedding instead of immersing your wedding with Vegas.

If the entire theme of your wedding, including all events is to be Vegas laden, you might want to consider playing card invitations or Lucky in Love favors. You also can give guests Mini Slot Machine gumball dispensers or Card Suit Key Chains. Each event can focus on a particular aspect of Vegas and can accentuate something that you enjoy about the place.

Keeping the balance, however, can pose a challenge. You do not, for instance, want the Vegas theme to dominate the ceremony, something that should be fun, but also should not be something you will wonder about years later. Being picked up by an Elvis impersonator to drive you to the reception, for instance, provides a nice balance; having Elvis officiate the ceremony, for most people, might be a little over the top. Another idea is to have any speakers incorporate a Vegas theme. This can include mentioning how both the Bride and Groom have "hit the jackpot" or how one or the other met and fell in love with a "Royal Flush." Your vows can also incorporate a Vegas theme in the same light, but remember, these likely will be one of the most profound sentences you will ever utter, so keep it serious enough that you will always treasure each others' creativity.

Balancing the fun of Vegas with the seriousness of the wedding ceremony and day requires a bit of creativity. Striking that balance is critical to making sure everyone realizes the special and serious quality of the day. Part of that also includes making sure your partner is full-on board with the idea and also that his idea of a Vegas theme matches your own so neither person is surprised; Vegas means different things to different people. With thought, however, you can merge fun with solemnity in a seamless manner that has them talking for years.
