This is the first venue we looked at. We chose to look at another for frame of reference but immediately came back to Emerald as we knew it was not possible to find anything comparable. It was picture perfect and the owner walked us through. He described how he'd come to owning the business and the passion that he feels for what he does made it the obvious choice. Throughout the past year and a half they have been available to answer questions, have allowed me to change things time after time and have reminded me of upcoming deadlines. They provide vendor information for anything they don't provide directly and everyone we dealt with was professional and incredibly detail oriented. Our wedding was this past weekend and not only was the staff there to take care of our needs, but so were the owners. It gave the feeling that not only do they make sure that every detail is taken care of, but they want to see how their hard work turns out. From the second myself and my bridal party arrived, we had someone checking on us to see if we were in need of anything. ANy details they were not 100% certain on they were validating to make sure it went exactly how I wanted. They make sure everyone is where they need to be and when. Everyting was exactly as we had discussed and it was just beautiful. The best part, is that they were making sure we were having fun. Every guest who attended said it was the most beautiful and fun wedding they have attended. On top if all of this, the pricing for everything they include is sooo reasonable. If you are getting married in Vegas, you must at least check this place out.

We just had our wedding and reception at Emerald- we are from out of town (Portland) and everything was phenominal!! We were able to plan everything via email and the staff was very responsive and helpful! I am a very picky person and had lots of little add ons and special requests so the day of was a little nerve wracking. I was pleasantly surprised that EVERYTHING went exactly how I wanted, the whole day was coordinated flawlessly, the staff was super attentive the day of making sure we knew exactly what was going on and when and we were able to customize how we wanted the whole day and evening!!! Besides the amazing staff, the venue itself is breathtaking! It was beautiful inside and out, we ended up adding the lighting last minute which I highly recommend - it set the mood and made a very romantic setting. The venue was beautiful, the food and cake were delicious, the DJ and photographers were the best- I wouldnt have dreamed my day any other way!! I will continue to rave about this place and recommend it to ANYONE!!! Thanks emerald for making my day a memorable one!

My husband and I were married on Sunday, December 4, 2011 at the beautiful Emerald at Queensridge. Our wedding day was everything we imagined that it would be, and many of our guests still rave about how excellent everything was! The bridal suite is absolutely stunning and the grooms suite was great especially during football season for all the guys. The staff was absolutely amazing both during the planning process and on our wedding day. We love EAQ and we would definitely recommend it as the perfect wedding venue!

I was just recently married here 2 weeks ago. I had wonderful service from the day I booked my wedding over a year ago. Anytime I would call or email with a question or concern, it was addressed fast and courteous! Everyone there was very helpful and nice. My ceremony and reception were beautiful and exactly how I had planned them. Any changes I wanted to make last minute the staff was very helpful in making my visions a reality. I am so pleased with my experience with EAQ and would highly recommend them!

Our guests had only the highest praise for this beautiful location. I definitely recommend using their photobooth too!

The staff at Emerald at Queensridge was friendly and helpful from pre-wedding planning all the way through to the end of our event. They helped us through every step and were very patient with us.
The food was very good, the cake was great, and the drinks were plentiful. We couldn't have asked for more.
Everyone who attended had a great time and they loved this place. We highly recommend this venue, especially given the price compared to other places around Las Vegas. This place has everyone beat, hands down! :)

My husband and I were married at Emerald at Queensridge on December 11, 210 and we loved every moment of it. Emerald was not only a beautiful place to get married, but they took care of everything. We were very pleased with the food, dj, and staff. Emerald has a wonderful groom’s room and the most spectacular bridal suite for the bride to get ready. The photography is amazing and our wedding photos are perfect. They have so many options for the décor that the possibilities are endless. I can seriously say that we had a fairy tale wedding.

Emerald at Queensridge was the PERFECT place for my wedding. They took care of everything for me! I didn't have to worry about a thing, whether it was the dj, the cake, the photography, or anything else, they had it covered. They even did it at an affordable price with their amazing all-inclusive package. My friends are all saying it was the most beautiful wedding they have ever been too, and I completely agree! :)

Emerald at Queensridge was the most amazing place to hold our wedding. They were a one stop shop and handled all of our wedding details. They were so kind and eager to help! The facility itself is so classy and elegant. You will not be disappointed. We planned our wedding for a year and every aspect of it exceeded out expectations.
The bridal suite is by far one of my favorite highlights of Emerald. It is any brides dream come true!
The day of our wedding they really took care of us, catered to our every need. The photographers were amazing! The ceremony was gorgeous. The food was great. We even had a bakery chef at our wedding and she said our wedding cake was the best she ever had. Even the DJ stopped over at the head table after our meal and gave us 2 sticks of gum before we went out and mingled with everyone. That really amazed us.
I would recommend Emerald at Queensridge to anyone! You will have the wedding of your dreams without all the stress. They really take care of you and we cannot thank them enough.

Emerald at Queensridge was wonderful! Being a same sex lesbian couple, our options were limited to where we could have our commitment ceremony to begin with. We wanted something private, quiet, personal, where we could have the ceremony and the reception. Since the first day my partner and I walked through the doors at Emerald we felt welcome. The office administration, the kitchen staffers, DJ, bartender, and even the owners were absolutely wonderful to us. They say that planning a wedding is supposed to be one of the most stressful things to do. My partner and I were pleasantly surprised at how incredibly easy everything was. The wonderful staff at Emerald took care of every last detail. I would highly recommend this facility to any couple looking to get married, have a commit ceremony, or renew their vows. Our overall experience totally surpassed our expectations. Thank you everyone at Emerald for making our day that much more special! Kate & Deanne (September 24, 2010)

My husband and I just got married at Emerald at Queensridge on July 17, 2010. Prior to choosing our venue, we actually read reviews on this website, which made us increasingly interested in this venue. After making a trip to Vegas (we live near Reno,NV) to tour the facility our mind was quickly made up. We toured various other venues in Vegas, but for us, nothing could compare. When it came to planning and organizing the wedding, the EQ staff was very helpful, efficient, and professional. They really worked with us to help us make our wedding perfect. I personally find coordinating over emails as opposed to the phone much easier for myself, and the staff replied in a very timely manner on every question I had. The price was definitely reasonable, especially for how beautiful the venue is, as well as the high quality of the staff. We were a little concerned about the heat, as our wedding ceremony took place outside in about 112 degree weather. The staff made sure that everything went according to plan, and made all the outdoor activities as quick and efficient as possible. Surprisingly, our guests who were previously concerned about the heat were amazed with how comfortable it really was. Overall our wedding day was more perfect than we could have ever imagined. The ceremony was beautiful, the reception was a blast, and the food was delicious. We are anxiously awaiting the return of our photos, but the preview of the photos we saw on the day of our wedding were absolutely amazing. If we had to go back in time and do it again we would absolutely choose Emerald at Queensridge again and we recommend this venue to everyone!!!

Summer Wedding 2010
After looking at many different wedding venues, we fell in love with Emerald; booked our date over a year in advance. The staff was so friendly. Location-AWAY from LV Strip because we live here, but in Summerlin away from the casinos; in a great location. We had a fabulous wedding in this summer and a little over 100 guests, but this place is huge. Beautiful LED lighting accented the reception. This place has everything that you need- all in once venue with the ceremony and reception in one place, catering the food, open bar, on site photographer, on site DJ , and sweet Reverend Billitari married us. This is a great place to have basically everything you need for the price. You get an engagement photo session and every year and a complimentary photo session on your yearly anniversary. We were able to try the food for a tasting before the wedding and had a practice wedding rehearsal a few days before. Photos turned out beautiful and even received a photo book to keep forever!

Our wedding was held at Emerald at Queensridge (aka Emerald Gardens) in Summerlin on April 28th 2010. What can I say? This place is first class all the way! For those unfamiliar with anything outside of the strip or the casinos, you probably won’t have any idea about this place. But if you’re looking for a classy, elegant, all in one solution for your special day without the din of slot machines or worrying about your guests skipping out on your reception for some extreme casino action, look no further! My wife and I must have looked at a dozen venues here and while they were all beautiful, most were connected to a hotel/casino. As Vegas locals, the last thing we wanted to deal with was some over priced, smoky, and impersonal resort/hotel/casino where we’d have to fight through all the drunken tourists on our special day. One of the many wonderful things about Emerald is that it’s NOT connected to a hotel/casino and you can have an elegant event without all the trappings of a typical Vegas wedding. The staff at Emerald literally took care of EVERYTHING from beginning to end. You won’t be stuck dealing with some faceless corporate entity. Everyone from the owners on down the line will personally work together with you taking care of every last detail ensuring your special day goes without a hitch while standing ready to adjust and accommodate your personal tastes and wishes. As for the location, leave the crazy strip behind for the day and venture out to the Beverly Hills of Las Vegas. Summerlin is the personification of luxury with opulent mansions, miles of golf courses and first class shopping without the pricey overhead of the mega resorts. Not to mention it’s about 10 degrees cooler than the strip. Summerln is also located at the foot of the breathtaking natural beauty of Red Rock Canyon. Of course, you’re always a short hop to some of the most luxurious hotels and resorts the city has to offer. But don’t take our word for it. Give Emerald a call and find out for yourself why this is fast becoming one of the most popular and in demand venues in the Las Vegas valley.

My granddaughter was recently married at the Emerald at Queensridge and the event was amazing from beginning to end. This venue provides every convenience for the bridal party, a beautiful outdoor setting for the ceremony and a reception area enhanced with mood lighting.
I checked out the majority of venues in the city and loved this one!

Review of Emerald at Queensridge (EQ)
891 South Rampart, Las Vegas, NV 89145-4826, (702) 242-5700
From my very first meeting with EQ to our grand exit and beyond, I have never met such professional, wonderful, genuine, and compassionate people as Renae and Leon of Emerald at Queensridge. I was known as “Princess,” from Leons first words to his last. During the tour, Leon gave me more information then I could have asked for, and with a bit of humor too! This made me feel comfortable. Every step in the EQ process was done so perfectly, that on my wedding day, I lounged around in the upstairs bridal suite with not a worry on my mind. I was able to enjoy every precious moment with my girls, mom, and kids. Speaking of bridal suite, “WOW” is the only word that comes to mind. My girls were spaced out with separate vanity areas for getting ready; they had plenty of time and were extremely comfortable. The staff at EQ was there every moment to make sure we had anything and everything a bridal party could ever want. The room was breath taking and the memories created there will never be forgotten.
Being that we live in Las Vegas, we wanted our wedding to not feel like a Vegas wedding, and EQ was the perfect place. Lots of beautiful scenery, trees, grass, waterfall, and of course the Red Rock Mountains peaking over the backdrop. EQ coordinated a day/night wedding based on the timing of the sun, so I would walk down the aisle in daylight and back down at night. The trees and outside courtyard lit up so elegantly that the final photographs were one of a kind. This would not have happened if Leon and his staff did not care so much.
The officiant, Rev. Peter Billitteri and the videographer, Afterglow, were more than I could have asked for. As EQs referrals, we got the best rates and most wonderful service, which helped us capture this special day forever. Rev. Peter Billitteri met us in person and customized every word spoken at our ceremony, as well as catered to our uniquely crazy sand ceremony. It was perfect and it was all because of Rev. Peter Billitteri. Afterglow captured every moment on film, and a cameraperson was there no matter what was going on. They were kind, and always asking us for special requests. Unbelievable is how I describe these wonderful people.
The venue, from the food, décor, staff, ambiance, set-up, staircase, and layout, EQ is the perfect place to hold a wedding. Every detail was customized to match our style, personalities and taste. Renae even turned on the green wall lighting to add to the overall elegant appearance of the room, allowing the place to glow even more. It was beautiful, from our appletini green accents, napkins, and centerpieces, to the lighting on the walls, ceiling, staircase, and dance floor. The bartender was perfection and made every guest feel as if they were getting something special. The DJ let us pick every song played from the ceremony to reception and beyond. Because we are a younger couple, most DJs are not used to playing such a wide variety of music, but this DJ pulled it off.
Since photography is the base of EQ, our wedding photos were beyond perfection, with variety and every moment captured as if they never took their finger off the camera trigger. Photos I would have never thought to take were taken because of the creative minds of Leon and his staff. Such photos as an over the staircase group dance floor shot which showed everyone who attended our wedding all in one photo, and we can not forget the crazy bridal party shot and beautiful ring photography. We now have 1500 photos to recapture our special day and share for a lifetime!
The staff at EQ is amazing, and now greets me by name whenever I come by for business, photo shoots or questions, it is like I gained an extended family, and a wonderful one. However, it was Leon and Renae who not only made our wedding magical and perfect, but they treated me as if I were their only daughter, one who deserved the world, and the world is what they gave me. I can never repay EQ for making our special day one to remember for a lifetime. I recommend anyone who wants a perfect, unforgettable, beautiful, non-Vegas wedding in Vegas to check out EQ before making that tough decision.
