Honeymoons - Your Las Vegas Honeymoon
Vegas attracts couples getting married like a hot streak on the dice attracts gamblers. You'll find every kind of activity and accommodation you can think of here. Gambling and shows are what Vegas is famous for, but there is shopping, golf and much more. You can lounge around the pool and be spoiled at the spa. Or, you can just walk around and laugh at all the people while you hold hands.
One of the great things about a Las Vegas honeymoon is that it can be anything you want. There are, of course, the wedding chapels with a Justice of the Peace dressed as Elvis, along with heart-shaped hot tubs in the hotel room. But there is also the elegant atmosphere at the Bellagio with its world-class rooms and shops.
Try a little Europe, USA style. Go to the Paris and take advantage of the Eiffel Tower wedding package to tie the knot atop a 50-story replica of the famed structure. Or, if you want an experience that is even more old-fashioned than you can imagine, dress up in Medieval garb and stay at the Excalibur.
For those on a budget the Tropicana offers packages that are remarkably inexpensive. This hotel is one of the classics in Las Vegas and offers that late-'50s style ambiance that made the town famous. You'll be snapping your fingers like Frank Sinatra and still have plenty of cash left over to roll the dice with your new spouse.
Maybe you'd like something with a tropical feel. Despite the name, the Tropicana doesn't quite provide that. But the Mandalay Bay Resort certainly does. There's an excellent spa, a stylish restaurant and dozens of shops, along with a casino, of course.
You might be interested in wearing a toga, or something like it. Spend your Las Vegas Honeymoon in the large rooms at Caesar's Palace, then go to the spa for a great massage. Lounge around the room afterward in one of the oval baths big enough for two. Then stretch out underneath the ceiling mirror to enjoy one of the luxurious four-poster beds. You'll feel like having a Roman orgy for two.
You can even stay far from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas and only drive in for the gambling and shows, if you want. The Ritz-Carlton at Lake Las Vegas has one of the best spas around. It also features an outstanding golf course.
It's 17 miles from the Strip, so you'll experience a very different atmosphere. But you can still be in the thick of the excitement in less than half an hour. Like every Ritz-Carlton, it's a bit pricey, but it's your honeymoon so splurge.
Wherever you stay there is no end of things to do in Las Vegas on your honeymoon. If you still have any energy left after the golf, the shopping, the shows and walking the Strip, you can always take a drive. The romantic route that winds through the desert canyons can end with a spectacular sunset and a honeymoon kiss.
