Caesars Wedding

We are planning on getting married at Caesars Palace in the Venus garden next June. We are thinking about using bently&wilson photography as the photographer because their prices are reasonable especially with the CD price that caesars wants to charge so does Caesars allow them to come and take pictures during the Ceremony? Any other opinions or Recommendations are appreciated.

    Caesars will charge you an outside vendor fee of $200 if you wish to have Bentley and Wilson take photos during your ceremony.

    Supposedly an outside photographer can sit in on your wedding and take pictures like any other guest as long as they don't use a flash or move around. Some photogs just wait around for the ceremony to end. I think most brides use the package photographer for the ceremony and have the outside photographer for afterward. Although some pay the fee and use their photographer for the ceremony too. The fee at Caesars is $200.

    We are getting married at Caesars and using their photog for our posed family shots and the pics that come with our package and then we have DTyler Photography for afterward and our reception.

    I'm getting married at Caesars as well, and am paying the $200 fee for Bently&WIlson to take pictures during our ceremony.  While $200 seems like a crazy fee for someone to take pictures during your wedding, know this:

    Caesars will charge you upwards of $600 in order to get a cd of your ceremony pictures and have the rights to reprint your own pictures.  With Bently&WIlson, this is included in your package.

    That was the deciding factor for us to pay the outside fee.  In the long run, we're saving a ton of money, because we want the rights to all our pictures and I refuse to pay $600 for 30 mins of ceremony pictures.

    Just a helpful tip :)

    I just got married in June at Caesars Classico Chapel and used Bentley Wilson. We loved everything! I will be posting reviews soon. We used Caesars for the ceremony though and Todd waited outside. I do know that many of our guests thanked us though for not having the wedding outside because it was around 100 degrees. Maybe it's fine at night? I liked my Caesars pics better than I thought though! It was nice to have both. Getting Todds back soon. I have a few pictures of my ceremony you can check out !www.photoreflect.com/pr3/store.aspx?p=40191" target="_blank" onmousedown="UntrustedLink.bootstrap($(this), "f096dQ96dyenLrmWUABlEDGZYmA", event);">http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/store.aspx?p=40191 Search recent weddings Worth 6/26/10 password wortha

    Hi,

    I'm getting married in the Venus Garden next June too!!  I am going to use their photographer too and have my own shoot pics too! I figure the more pictures the merrier!! No need to spend an extra $200 when I could use that for something else.

    I'm so excited!!! Hope its not too hot!!
