How much does a Vegas wedding cost?
A legal Las Vegas wedding starts around $300 all-in on the budget end (Clark County marriage license $102, ceremony from $69 at The Little Neon Chapel on Fremont Street, basic photo). A full reception weekend with a private dining room, after-party table service, and morning-after brunch runs $25,000 to $75,000 for a 30-50 guest count. A private-buyout build at a Strip restaurant plus a nightclub table extension typically lands at $150,000 to $400,000 for 80-200 guests.
Tier 1: under $5,000 (the same-day elopement)
Clark County marriage license is $102 in person at the downtown bureau. No waiting period, no blood test, no residency. Add a ceremony at The Little Neon Chapel from $69 at their published rate (Fremont Street, themed Elvis or Prince ceremonies available; confirm current pricing with the chapel directly), dinner at a mid-tier Strip restaurant, and a single VIP table at a partner nightclub after, and two-person all-in lands at $2,500 to $4,500.
Tier 2: $25,000 to $75,000 (the full weekend)
A weekend with 30-50 guests covers a rehearsal-dinner private dining room, a ceremony (chapel or in-property), a reception room with a buffet or four-course seated meal, two cabanas at a partner pool club the next afternoon, an after-party VIP table at a nightclub, and morning-after brunch. We run it on one concierge thread.
Tier 3: $150,000 to $400,000 (the private-buyout build)
For 80-200 guests the build typically includes a partial or full buyout of a Strip restaurant for the reception, a private nightclub buyout or a large skybox extension for the after-party, multiple cabanas or a partial pool-club buyout for the morning-after, multi-night room blocks, transportation, photography, florals and music.
What moves the number most
Three variables account for most of the spread between two weddings with the same guest count. Night of the week: Friday and Saturday minimum spends at Strip venues typically run well above Tuesday through Thursday for the identical room. Event weekends: F1, Super Bowl, NFR, EDC and CES all carry premiums across the whole city. Format: a seated meal in a private dining room costs a different thing entirely than a cocktail reception on a rooftop, even at the same headcount.
What we book, and what we don't
This page is a guide to what a Vegas wedding costs. We are not a wedding planner and do not arrange weddings. What we do book is the dining and nightlife around the ceremony: rehearsal-dinner restaurants, reception private dining rooms and buyouts, rooftop bars, after-party nightclub tables, pool club cabanas for the morning-after, and group transportation. The ceremony, the chapel, the officiant, the marriage license, florals, photography and day-of coordination are not ours.
Ceremony partner
For the ceremony itself, we point couples to The Little Neon Chapel on Fremont Street: $69 weddings at their published rate, themed Elvis and Prince ceremonies, walk-in Wednesdays. You book the chapel with them directly. thelittleneonchapel.com.
