| - We planned our wedding in two weeks and learned about Chapel of the Flowers from The Knot website. We were married here on 3/20/2012
The communication with the chapel was impeccable, both by email and telephone. We live in Wisconsin so without knowing what we were getting for our money, this was important. We drove to Nevada from Wisconsin (27 hours) and we truly ended up with a no-worries experience!
We opted for the most simple package and you would think that there would be no frills, but the grounds, the chapel itself and the limo included really makes for a tasteful and beautiful experience.
Also, we paid for the "First Look" upgrade, where they orchestrate the bride and groom's arrival time so he could not see me until I walked down the aisle. This mostly went off without a hitch, but they should find a way or hidden space for those anxious brides/grooms to be able to have a smoke!
At the time, my husband was a smoker and wanted a have a cigarette to calm himself down. When he went to go have one, he was reprimanded that I was almost there and he couldn't go outside then, lest he see me! I think with as much tension as people experience on their wedding day, they should be able have a smoke if they need one.
The photography was fine, if not a bit awkward. My husband is not one for joking around (or smiling) and apparently, right before we were to walk down the aisle, the photographer made a joke that I had run off! So between that and the lack of nicotine, tension ran high! In a lot of our photos he looked tense, angry or miserable. More time (and perhaps a Valium) for him to relax would have improved the situation (and photos) considerably.
Overall, I loved our experience with Chapel of the Flowers. We plan to have a five year renewal and if we return to Vegas for it, we would come back here.
Oh, one Caveat. Study your marriage certificate carefully after you receive it! Let's face it, these officiators and chapels go through a lot of weddings in a day and ours was one of many. The reason I say this is because once we were back home, we received our marriage certificate and I noticed that it read that we were married in the "Chapel in the Clouds," I think in Stratosphere!
Suffice to say, we had to call Chapel of the Flowers and let them know, but they did make and file the corrections with Clark County for us and had the amended certificate sent without a hassle.
