For couples who would like to say their vows in the wedding capital of the world, but have no idea if they can afford it or not, we’re here to help by answering the question – how much does it cost to get married in Las Vegas? Always & Forever Weddings and Receptions has compiled essential pricing details just for you, which includes ceremony and reception packages of all sizes, as well as package inclusions, the cost of a marriage license, and more. It should all come together perfectly to provide you with the pricing details needed to start planning your big day. With that said, let’s begin to break down the cost of having a wedding in the Las Vegas area.
How Much Does a Las Vegas Wedding Cost?
The average cost of a Las Vegas wedding is $650 on the low end and $10,500 for larger ceremonies and receptions. Pricing can vary due to a few factors such as the package you choose, your guest list count, and the cost of the specific wedding venue that’s utilized.
Wedding day add-ons or upgrades can also affect the price, as well as any wedding specials that are applied, or if you’re having a holiday wedding that calls for higher rates, and so on. Additionally, the cost can be dramatically different if you’re booking a ceremony only wedding compared to an all inclusive affair.
Las Vegas is known for being a location that’s ideal for tying the knot, and with that comes a wide variety of options and prices. Because of this, there are many wedding packages to choose from. So, in the end, the cost of a Las Vegas wedding will really be determined by a couple’s needs and preferences. Now, let’s get started with reviewing some pricing specs for those who are looking into ceremony only packages.
