BEST WEDDING VENUES IN LAS VEGAS, HENDERSON & PARADISE NV
According to a Wedding Planner with 15+ Years of Experience
After planning hundreds of weddings and events over the past 15 years, we know as much as you do, that not all weddings are the same. Not all client needs are the same. And not everyone’s style is the same.
There are 4 core differences in venue needs for modern brides and grooms:
- Capacity: The average wedding in Las Vegas has about 110 guests. However, some people are hosting weddings as small as 50, and some as large as 500+. To help you find venues that meet your capacity needs, we created a separate section for venues with a capacity over 200 below.
- Catering: While many venues require you to cater your food through them, this does not work for everyone. For multicultural weddings with specific meal items you’d want to serve, or simply wanting to choose your own (licensed) caterer who specializes in your favorite meal options, you may want a venue that gives more flexibility in the area. This is why we have a specific section below for venues that allow outside catering.
- Indoor/Outdoor: If you’re hosting a wedding in the middle of Summer or the middle of Winter then you may be seeking an indoor venue, but if your wedding is in more mild times, you may want part or all of your wedding to be outdoors. We’ve noted which venues below provide outdoor options for the ceremony or reception
- Style: Everyone’s style is unique, so we’ve provided a list of venues with different styles for you to choose from.
