Billie and Jack’s fabulous Vegas wedding
An exciting elopement to an iconic American venue
These newlyweds headed overseas for a fabulous Vegas wedding at the renowned Little White Chapel…
Jack and Billie’s first date was to their local Christmas market, followed by a visit to Starbucks. “It’s still our fave thing to do,” says Billie. “Later, Jack proposed to me in my favourite city in the world, New York. It was at the top of the Empire State Building, which was dreamy.”
Shopping for the dress
Billie found her perfect dress at wed2b’s Manchester store. "The staff in wed2b were amazing,” she says. “They were so helpful and really wanted me to feel comfortable and to know all about my plans.”
She chose Monikh, a floral lace and glitter A-line by Viva Bride. “It was perfect for a Vegas wedding because it was so big and princessy,” she says. “However, it was also very light and I loved the sparkle. Everyone said the dress was just me to a T.”
A Vegas wedding elopement
The couple married at the famous Little White Chapel, in Las Vegas, on the 3rd October. “It’s an iconic place to say we got married and had so many perfect picture opportunities,” says Billie.
The big day
“The wedding morning was chaos!” laughs Billie. “Too many girls in one hotel room. I met my husband-to-be in the grand lobby and we took a limo with my mum and dad to the chapel. All of our guests wore pink, but my bridesmaids stood out in hot pink dresses and pink heart sunglasses.”
After the ceremony, the newlyweds surprised their guests with a party bus. “It took us to the ‘Welcome to Las Vegas’ sign for photos before dropping us off at our private dining room, overlooking the Bellagio Fountains,” says Billie. “Then we had the best steak of our lives.”
The best bits…
“The most memorable moment of the whole day was walking from our hotel room to the lobby singing 'Going to the chapel and we’re gonna get married’!” says Billie.
My top tips…
"Bring a fan,” says Billie. “Also, wear cycling shorts under your dress if you’re getting married in the desert!”
