We are close to making a decision on the ceremony location! We have it narrowed down to the Bellagio Terrazza and the Flamingo Gazebo.
I know these are totally different locations! We originally wanted to have the ceremony at the Bellagio Terrazza because our reception will likely be at the Bellagio and we visited and the location is beautiful! However, it is also pretty expensive and the mandatory Cashman photography and expensive floral are turnoffs for me too. The Flamingo gazebo is also lovely and much more budget friendly, and allows for flexibility on photography and floral. I also feel like the ceremony would have a bit more of a traditional feel, since there is a long straight aisle, rather than a windy set of stairs.
So, I'm almost ready to pull the trigger on the Flamingo Gazebo, but have a few questions first!
1) If the reception starts (serving cocktails) at 5:30 at the Bellagio, is 4 pm the proper time to do the ceremony?
2) Does anyone have photos of Flamingo floral or examples of a ceremony DVD (using Flamingo videography)? I'm wondering if we should use Flamingo for these things or use outside vendors.
3) Anyone want to try to talk me into the Bellagio Terrazza? 
It is beautiful, but I feel like we could spend that money in better ways and I wouldn't be so stressed about the budget.
Thanks!
