My wedding in Vegas!
This was my second visit to Vegas, the first was during the previous year. We stayed at the Signature, MGM. This is the all suite part of the MGM hotel and offered a fantastic rate of around £380 for 3 nights. The suites are huge and the bed was the biggest and comfiest I've ever slept in.
Each tower (there are 3 in total) has its own private pool, which has bar and waiter service. The pool is a nice relaxing quiet alternative to the main pool complex at the MGM. As well as the main free pool the MGM also has the fantastically wild "Wet Republic"…wow what a great day that was! This is the latest thing in Vegas; a pool which has a bar, DJ and lots of funky tunes. It’s really worth the $20 or so that it costs to get in.
We went to watch "KA" at the MGM, whilst we were here. This is a Cirque show and was worth every penny (it's worth paying the extra money to have the best seats as it makes the show even more amazing and I've seen it twice!) This is really the only Cirque show that has a story as such to follow and is probably the best option if you're taking kids to Vegas and want to see a Cirque show.
On the night before our wedding we ate at Joel Rubichon's place in the MGM, not the brasserie, but the main Michelin star restaurant. What an experience that was, for any foodies this is a real must. In all honesty the food options in Vegas are great, the buffets (which you may think are expensive) are so worth the money, the quality is great and the options are generally very upmarket.
We then went onto Lake Las Vegas for our final night and stayed at Lowes, where we got married lake side at sunset....words can't say how amazing this was. Having seen the chapels on my previous trip with the tourist board I knew the Lake was the place for me, not a wedding chapel.
We even managed to fit in a helicopter trip over the canyon....wonderful.
