It was pretty perfect bc we considered it as a first dance song, but we went w/ something different. AHHH I really want to see that video now :)

Wiwi, have you seen this website? http://www.freevegasclubpasses.com/free-guestlist-vegas-clubs

I think it is genuine, it is well-recommended on TripAdvisor. Basically you can pre-book free passes or get on the guestlist for free VIP entry. It might be worth checking out.

We would love to be able to host our Welcome Dinner, but instead we are paying the $250 deposit at Yolos which will go towards everyone's first drink. The food is cheap and it has had good reviews on here. I don't think people expect for you to pay their way at anything other than the wedding reception.

Thanks a million for all the reviews, the ideas and the enthusiasm!

Gribbles, thanks for that link!

dvohnout, piano bar and buffet dinner are also good ideas

IMO, everybody's wedding/budget, etc is different. Don't feel you have to do one thing or another because of anyone else. I would have loved to stayed at the same hotel where I would get married and host the reception too but it just wasn't on the budget. I would love to do more for my guests but the dream house we are saving for is way more important than a party. Just my 2 cents.

Marrying the person of your dreams is what it's all about...

I will add my vote for Fremont!  We always have more fun downtown than we do on the Strip.  Its almost like the Strip is Disneyland and downtown is more affordable to party and have a great time without spending all of your money the first night.
