Professional Pictures of Maggiano's and Paris Wedding Video 5.26.13

It took me forever to get the time to sit down and do this, but I finally am posting some of the professional pictures of my wedding reception and the link to our wedding video. I picked these photos so you could see how detailed the set up was and how beautifully Maggiano's executed my vision. I brought a lot of décor and I spent a year nearly driving myself crazy trying to figure out what tables I needed to decorate and how much space I had. I hope this helps anyone who is as obsessive as I was! I tried to give the best pics of the uplighting (there were 8), the layout of the tables and all of my décor, but a lot of those pics have my friends and family doing ridiculous things in them. Sorry! I blame the open bar. There are 4 round tables with 9 settings at each, a sweetheart table, and decorations on the bar, the sign in table, the credenza and the cake table. I've also posted the link to our wedding video from the Chapelle du Paradis at Paris. It was hard for me to envision how my ceremony and reception would turn out, so I hope this helps all my future Vegas brides. Enjoy and ask me any questions you need. I  wouldn't change a single thing about my wedding, so I'm happy to give you any advice I can. I have hundreds of other pictures from Maggiano's, Paris, our party bus and all of the stops we made. Enjoy!

Thanks for taking the time to share!  Our family meet and greet is being held there the night before our wedding.  How was the grub?

Amazing! We are getting married in the Chapelle du Paradis in October. How did you find their photographer? We were not impressed with their portfolio so we hired another photographer for after the ceremony. I am interested to see how other people liked their work.

LOVE your dress and hair! You made a beautiful bride and it looks like you had a perfect day! Congrats

Thanks everyone! It was an amazing day. I wish my hair had held up as well at the end of the night, but it was still pretty even after it fell a little .

@SD, I actually bought them on ebay. They doubled as our favor boxes, so I filled them with peppermint patties.

@jenny, the food was to die for. Everyone is still talking about how good it was. I'd highly recommend the zucchini fritte, the six cheese cannelloni, and the tiramisu.

@kira, most of their pictures weren't that great, so I just went with what was included in my package.

I got married at Paris almost 1 year ago.  We were in the other Chapel- Chapel du Jardin.
I only had 12 guests.

I believe Pastor Nelson did our ceremony.  I'm about 95% sure that was his name. 
Anyway he was a very sweet man.  My mom kept commenting on how good looking he was.
He was a bit late to our wedding, however there was a torrential downpour outside and there were some flash floods that day, so it wasn't his fault.
I only met him for about 1-2 minutes before the ceremony.  I'm not sure how long DH met with him.

He did an awesome job.  Even when DH messed up the vows!

@Mrs. Gindage, thank you! Your day will be gorgeous and you will be a beautiful bride! I didn't get a say in my minister, but Pastor Roland was fantastic. We ended up meeting him at our reception later that night when he was working as an Elvis impersonator at the anniversary party next door, lol. He met us about 15 minutes before the ceremony and asked me some basic questions about our relationship and if there was anything special I wanted in or out of the ceremony. He did the same thing with my husband. My reception was at Maggiano's and ours cost a little over $6k when all was said an done. If you included all the decorations I brought from home and the transportation I provided to and from Paris, then we are probably talking about $7k. I rented the Calabria and DiCarlo rooms and picked the Milano package, but upgraded to the super premium bar option. Our package included our 2 tier custom designed cake from Freed's, our DJ and 8 amber uplights from All Night Long Entertainment, and 4 floral arrangements from The Palette. However, you can really customize your package at Maggiano's to meet your room minimum. This was just what worked best for me. All of the linens, favors, and decorations on the tables were provided by me.
