If you do not live near Las Vegas, chances are you will need accommodations. Many hotels and casinos offer special pricing for rooms if you book your wedding ceremony and reception at their venue. Staying at a hotel or casino eliminates the need to travel around the city. If you have never been to Las Vegas, you may be surprised by the amount of traffic around the strip.
