Bellagio to Caesars walk or drive?

Hi ladies, so I just booked Francesca and am SOOOO excited. I love her work and it sounds like she will be amazing based on reviews.
I have a (larger) size wedding party and everyone decided they want hair and makeup professionally done by her
That means 1 MOH, 4 BM, and 2 moms PLUS myself.

Francesca said she would bring her assistant and we will go at it from 8:30AM-until 3:00pm (Have to be at the Caesars chapel by 3:30, wedding is at 4).

My question is do you think its enough time? We will be coming from Bellagio. Has anyone else stayed at Bellagio and had to walk to Caesars? How long does it take? I know they are next door to eachother, but they are both so big and I wasn't sure where in Caesars exactly the chapels were located.

Just stressin' the small stuff today I guess

I would say plan to finish hair by 1pm if the ceremony is at 4.  You will be too rushed if you only finish by 3pm, and you still want time for makeup, pictures, getting dressed, a few moments to relax, etx.  My friend had her wedding at 7 and our hair was done by 3pm and we were STILL rushed after.

Oh and it will definitely take less time to walk to Caesars from the bellagio than it would to drive, but allow yourself 20 minutes at least!

Thanks aegrish! We are getting our makeup done also in that timeframe and going to take pictures after the ceremony instead of before with the WP and eachother (so first time I will see my FI is walking down the aisle- eek!!). But yes I will definitly need relaxing time and don't want to be rushed. Thanks for the advice!

No comment on length of time from Bellagio to Caesars but I just want to say that you'll love Francesca!!

It's not far at all, and from what I can remember there's a little walkway from the Bellagio that comes out over by Seredipity at Caesars.
I would definitely walk but 3pm is cutting it way close!
You don't want to have to rush, especially if you're in heels.

There is an enclosed hallyway from Bellagio to Ceasars.  It will maybe take you 20 minutes.  I don't think you'll need 3 hours BUT you don't want to ruch either.  I would plan to say to be done at 2:30 or 3 depending on what you have planned inbetween like pictures.  Would you want some family pictures or bridesmaid pictures with you before the wedding.  Give yourself time and then if you run over you can just do those after.  20 minutes should give you enough time though but definitly pace yourself, everyone tells you that.

There is? Where is it located I have never seen it or signs pointing to an enclosed hallway.
