The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino

We flew all the way over from australia to get married at the venetian Las Vegas, with only correspondence via email, our wedding organiser Shanna set up a beautiful wedding ceremony that turned out to be a dream for us. Can not be more appreciative of Shanna's work and the location.

If you are looking for zero-stress wedding planning, plan your wedding with The Venetian! Our wedding was planned easily in one telephone call and six emails! This was a second wedding for both of us and we wanted something affordable and intimate. We were married in the Gondola ceremony and it was beautiful and private! My flowers were gorgeous. The videography and photography were amazing! Our minister was so kind and made us feel so welcome. I cannot state enough how elegant the entire process was and how easy everything was. I have highly recommended the services of The Venetian to everyone! Our beautiful pictures tell the story to all who have viewed them! I would definitely use their services again!

Instead of booking the chapel for our small ceremony, we had our ceremony in our suite. The room was amazing and fitted our 20 guests easily. We hired a private celebrant to conduct the wedding. We then had our reception dinner at Cannaletto Restuarant in the Venetian, near St Mark's square. The restuarant was so helpful (especially considering I had to organise this wedding from Australia!) and the food was amazing. Everyone raved about thier meals. Leanne, Australia

The ceremony was on the gondola and was absolutely amazing. We had 30 guests that came and loved every minute of it. We already want to do it again. We will most likely have our vow renewal there in 5 years. They took care of everything and answered all questions I had. We didn't have one worry while there. Everything went PERFECTLY!

When you don't want to spend $15,000, but still want an elegant wedding, go to The Venetian! We chose to get married on the wedding bridge in St. Mark's Square. It's very public and you will feel like a celebrity. That's not why we did it though. We wanted to be different and shy away from golf courses and little chapels. Our coordinators were very calm and helpful towards frantic in-laws who didn't know what was going on. When I mentioned that we didn't want a huge reception hall, caterers, DJ...and all that went with that, our coordinator suggested reserving a private room at the Canaletto restaurant right above the wedding bridge for less than 80 people. It was perfect! There is a great difference between catered meals and dinner prepared by a restaurant who must hold their reputation for excellent food. Everyone had a choice from the menu and no one was disappointed. A plus to this experience is that whenever we go to the Venetian, we can sit where we had our reception and have dinner with a view of where we got married.

The Venetian/Palazzo was very hospitable re: my wedding. I am gracious and appreciative of all the attentivenes that they showed my event.

"Wanting to do something a little different, I was slightly worried getting married in the Gondola at the Venetian would be a bit "corny", but it wasn't. It was more than I could have imagined it to be. Very romantic! And having the shoppers stopping to watch and take photos added to the fun! The Venetian staff and the minister were all wonderful, and were there for anything we might have needed or had questions about. If we were to do it all over again, we wouldn't change a thing!"

The Venetian was absolutely beautiful for our ceremony. Since we were having a destination wedding and loved Las Vegas, we didn't think twice but to have it here. The coordinators were wonderful and everything we could have imagined they had ready for us. We had a violinist play, they provided a photographer and videographer, as well as the flowers. Our guests kept saying how beautiful it was! The only thing we would have liked is if we would have been able to get maybe at least a few photos with the price that we had to pay for the photographer alone.Other than that everything else was great!

Amazing Hotel, we spent our honeymoon here and due to lack of our pre-booked rooms was complimentary upgraded for an evening to a Renaissance Hotel Room. The staff are helpful, professional and friendly. The food is restaurant quality, everyone form the doorman to the room service was respectful - whenever in Vegas we will only stay there.

We were married at the Venetian on August 8. Our wedding was beautiful and we had a wonderful time. Our coordinator was perfect, took excellent care of us and had excellent suggestions. If we were to do it all over again, we would not change a thing. We stayed for 6 nights in the Venetian, in an upgraded Prima suite at no additional cost. It was the perfect spot for us to entertain family and friends who came in from out of town. The wedding chapel is beautiful, simple and elegant. Excellent customer service and a beautiful venue made our wedding at the Venetian absolutely perfect.

The Venetian is a five star hotel, resort and casino. Since my husband and I were getting married AND honeymooning all in one trip, we felt that we deserved superior accommodations and that was exactly what we got! Surprisingly enough, the lodging expense was not bad at all...the majority of the cost of our 'Weddymoon' went to airfare. We chose to stay in the Venezia Tower which is a more exclusive part of The Venetian. I appreciated the fact that at every entrance into the Venezia Tower, a security guard was posted to prevent random wanderers from entering. All we had to do was flash our room key card and we were courteously waived through. As silly as it may seem, my husband and I were slightly disappointed that it was never acknowledged (even with a cheap bottle of champagne) that we selected The Venetian as our hotel for our wedding and honeymoon. I know that may seem presumptuous, but we invested a good bit of money into our stay (especially when I discovered the ridiculously expensive mini bar) and we thought it would be special if they at least acknowledged that.The downside to staying in the lap of luxury on a blue collar budget is the lack of accessible refreshments (i.e.-Vending Machines, Coke Machines, etc.). The mini bar featured an $8 jar of Jelly Belly's that looked as if they had been there since the early 90's. The same applied to the $27 box of chocolate truffles. The Venetian sells itself in regards to the level of service and quality available. My only recommendation is to take advantage of what you pay for. If the website says that your room includes robes and slippers, make sure you get your robe and slippers!

They did an excellent job - I was stunned. From the catering to the wedding planner, the occasion was just perfect.

The Venetian is an absolutely wonderful venue for your wedding and reception. I have only wonderful and positive memories of working with them and having my wedding there. In addition, my guests were blown away by the events, surroundings, and details. I absolutely loved it and the Venetian was perfect.

This was was beautiful place to get married. We did it on a gondola, just the 2 of us and it was so romantic. Not tacky at all (which we were a bit worried about in vegas!).It was a pre-booked wedding and on the most popular date of the year - 08/08/08 - so this wedding was actually the only affordable one left to book but it was definitely the best decision.It's all organised for you and you can't change much but there isn't anything to change. The only thing i would say is that you should decide in advance what type of wedding photo's you want. We thought 95% of our photo's were too corny, but we wanted more happy, realistic photo's rather than the staring into space type! unfortunately the photographer didn't speak much english and didn't seem to know anything other to do than the same old thing he always does. But all in all i would highly recommend it. It's a wedding to be enjoyed if it's just the 2 of you but also with guests as they can stand and watch as the minister pronounces you man and wife and they can wath the gondola from the bridge.

Great service at the reception

We had a wonderful experience with the wedding department from the very beginning. All my wishes were taken care of and followed through. We had an excellent pastor officiating our ceremony, photography was everything we had hoped for, and the venue was beautiful. Absolutely everything was perfect there, including our reception dinner at Postrio.

My husband and I planned our ceremony in the Chapel at the Venetian, and our reception at Wolfgang Puck's Postrio. We chose the Venetian because of the beauty of the hotel and because of their photography portfolio. We were so pleased with the service at the Venetian. Our wedding coordinator was fabulous, we burned a disc of our own music for the ceremony and I emailed her a photo of the flowers I wanted and everything went off without a hitch. It was the best decision!At Postrio, we received outstanding service. I had about 90 guests and we had a 5 course meal in their private room. Our guests are still talking about the fabulous food and the service by the waiters (they would have several waiters each bring out meals for the table, circle the table, and place the plates down at the same time- ART!). They were also very flexible in dealing with our extra requests. It was worth every penny!!!

This venue is an excellent place to get married if you are flexible and ready for something new and exciting. We only had 20 guests of our own, but 200 people attended our wedding due to the tourists!
