| - I'll just get right to it, it's a quick vegas wedding chapel. My expectations were not high, so I was happily satisfied with the services. They had a nice lobby/foyer to gather while we were all arriving. The couple before us was walking out as we walked in, like a little wedding factory haha. I loved the way the little chapel was decorated, but the room was so small. Keep that in mind if you do plan to bring guests, we had about 25 so we were packed in with a few having to stand in the back. If you into have a big group then it's nothing to worry about. The bouquet provided was a joke, I wish I had just bought a cheap arrangement at the grocery store, they are just a clump of fake flowers from michaels, no embellishments or arrangement, it would be a super cheap thing for them to improve, I hope than in the future they do. During the ceremony there was an instrumental version of Christina perri's 'a thousand years' playing quietly in the background,it was so romantic! And right as the officiant was announcing us mr&mrs the song mixed to Etta James 'at last' it was just perfect! The whole ceremony took less than 5 min. A friend who recorded it on his phone said 2:14 or something like that haha. They didn't rush us out which was nice, we took a few pics with the chapel photographer but they gave us time to take more with our own hired photographer Dale Sweetland (plug, memorycreationsLV he's great!) after we were done they put our pics and video on a disc right there which was nice. The pics are not anything special, they encouraged us to tip the girl who took them and doted that she gave us more than was typically included in the package so we did, but when we got home and looked at them quite a few were out of focus or eyes were closed, so I wouldn't recommend a large tip. I definitely recommend paying the extra $30 to take your own pictures, some of the ones my mom took on her iphone turned out better than the ones on the disc. I'm glad we purchased the video, since it's vegas and lots of family wasn't there it's nice to be able to share with them. I do wish they would have called to let us know what to expect prior to us arriving, we did get a confirmation email but having a phone call I feel would have added a more personal touch. I was not familiar with vegas aside from the main strip so when we were headed to the chapel the downtown lv neighborhood looked really sketchy, it mostly street parking and on the edge of a residential neighborhood, as long as you take all your pics inside you'll be fine, and lock your car door ;)
Overall, we were happy with allure the staff was super friendly and nice, I would recommend them to couples looking for a nice simple fast wedding.
