| - We got married at Mandalay Bay, June 30, 2007. The Chapel itself was beautiful and everything was a breeze for us. We took at trip in January of 2007 to plan ahead and make all the decisions for our wedding, which helped a great deal, but wasn't necessary. Alicia was our coordinator at the Chapel and everything was a breeze. The only complaint, the music. I chose which songs I wanted our guests and wedding party to walk in to and which song for me to enter the room. The piano player was good, but the songs sounded nothing like what they were. I wish we had some kind of rehearsal though, for I felt the whole process was very rushed (I have to keep reminding myself it is Vegas though) and I looked a little silly on video. My parents walked me down the aisle, but it looked more like running down the aisle! I also looked lost during the ceremony, lighting the candles and all those little details...etc. We chose to have a simple and brief non denominational service, which the minister did exactly that. I could have done with the unnecessary "Love is Like" poem, I really am sick of hearing that, it sounds so cliche. I didn't know there would be a long poem... The photography was wonderful and well worth the $3000 we paid for it. Our salesperson for the photography however, was another story. Her accent was so think you could barely understand what she was saying or tying via email! Also what we received for our photo album was not what we ordered, and we didn't receive what we actually paid several hundred dollars extra for until several complaints via email and telephone. Our CD Montage was also broken, it stuck on the eight picture, only about 50 more to go that we couldn't see. I am in the wedding industry myself, I am on On Locaiton Makeup Artist. Nine times out of ten, when you have more than half of your guests stay at the hotel, when you plan your ceremony AND reception, rehearsal dinner AND Sunday brunch all at the hotel, usually at least one room or suite is comped. But no such thing at Mandalay. It is a good thing we absolutely love the hotel, for that we will return. I just think it is wrong to give all that business to the hotel and not get one thing in return. I have never heard of that. I understand Las Vegas is not Chicago (where we live), but even the Peninsula comps a hotel suite for the bridal party or for the bride and groom if the ceremony and reception are held there.
