Is there any wedding more Rock n Roll Bride than a Vegas elopement and a silver sequin dress? Getting married in December with a £6000 budget, Nic and Loz decided Sin City was the perfect spot for them. The ceremony was held at The Little White Wedding Chapel and afterwards they wandered around Fremont Street, Seven Magic Mountains, the Vegas Sign and Caesars Palace for photos. They ended the night with a 30 inch pizza from Pin Up Pizza which they ate back in their hotel room.

Imagine planning your whole wedding, only to have to RE-PLAN it all just four days before! Well that's exactly what happened to Chantelle and Simon's but luckily they kept their cool and still pulled off an amazing day. Less than a week to go and the couple found out their venue wasn't ready to host them. They quickly jumped into action and managed to rearrange the whole thing. The one silver lining of the unfortunate last minute venue change was that the day, that was originally going to cost £17,000, only ended up costing them just £6000!

July 15, 2017

It's no big secret that I love Las Vegas and it's weddings! I've been four times now and I'm always desperate for an excuse to go back. On my last trip we visited and fell in love with Red Rock Canyon, which is just a 25 minute car journey away from the Strip. It has to be one of the most beautiful and dramatic landscapes I've ever seen with my own eyes so you can imagine how much I love that Jen and Mike shot their wedding day portraits there!
