I was married here on 12/18/10 and the experience was great. My husband and I had originally set the date in 2008 but when we found out he had cancer we had to cancel our arrangements and they were subsequently put off. The wedding planning was stressful so I was looking for something much easier on us.
The Forever Grand was perfect. While in Vegas in August we checked out several venues, and the Forever Grand was perfect. It is Vegas without feeling Vegas tacky. Everyone was so helpful when we choose to reserve our date here. I was in constant contact with my wedding coordinator (lots of emails). When our families from NY arrived my mother felt the need to go over everything and see EVERYTHING prior to the wedding on several different days which we were able to do each time my mom wanted to see something else. I was just relieved that someone else was handling all of the details and all my family and I really needed to do was show up. Your wedding day is stressful enough without worrying what might go wrong, I didn't worry about anything going wrong.
My father was bothered that they basically confiscated cameras before the ceremony (we had already paid for photography - maybe they feel they won't make as much off of prints?). And though we got many great wedding shots, the CD with all shots and copyrights was fairly expensive, I knew it would be an expense considering the copyright but I did not expect it to be the price it was. Also the photographer "lost" our appointment for the day after to review the photos and we had to make another.
In our package almost everything was included, flowers, music, photography/videograhpy, even a limo ride to the courthouse, my hair, makeup, and mani/pedi. Overall we had a great experience.
Laura and Susan are wonderful!
