| - I have to say, if you are using this chapel, and probably any other, ASK LOTS OF QUESTIONS! I researched the crap out of Vegas Elvis vow renewals, looking for the best deal and the most for the money. There were enough hidden costs, that you don't see in the original fees online. They have a great live chat option, which came in handy since I was planning it as a surprise to my husband.
Negatives-
1. Make sure you ask about the distance allowed for the limo. It is not listed on the website, and they will charge you on top of the $40 required tip for the driver.
2. We weren't told about having to tip a videographer, which, in the end, was the same as the photographer we needed to tip....hmmmm, which tried to guilt us into buying more pictures that weren't part of the ceremony, or allowed as part of the package that we were paying for. I would have told him not to bother taking pictures before had I known they weren't going to allow us to pick the pictures without more cost!
3. The limo showed up 25 minutes before the ceremony, although we were told we needed to be ready an hour before for them to pick us up, then continued to drive like a blind bat out of hell, even though we had 3 small children in the back!
4. Who knows how long the guests were waiting, since they request them to be there at least 15 minutes before the ceremony,we were picked up and arrived late and we still had to finish up the payment, along with the photographer taking me away for pictures.
5. There is no "ah-hah" moment for the bride. I stood at the back of the chapel looking like a dumb-@$$, without the photographer,lights, or Elvis. They were totally unprepared.And the chapel was super stuffy inside.
6. A rep called the night before, asking why I had cancelled the limo service, which I had not, then called back and asked me to change the time of the vows.
7. You are given only ceremony pictures to pick from for your digital prints and prints. If you chose any of the other "artistic" photos, they will cost you $25 for the first, $100 for 5, and I stopped looking after that.
8. Tips added up to an extra $130, and that was only because I was cheap!
The pros-
1. Their packages start at $199, which is about $100 lower than any others I found.
2. Like I said, the limo is "complementary", although depending on the size, you are required to tip at least $40 or up.
3. Elvis reallllllly seemed to like his job, and I forgot all about the rest of the crap I was getting irritated about.
4. You can request specific songs, although I didn't....I figured he knows what works best!
5. If you are kick-back, you'll have no problem, and I just told you all the things that could go wrong! Good Luck!!
