Chris & Brian’s Old Las Vegas Wedding

Andrea Eppolito, Vegas’s premier event planner, went full on Vintage Vegas for this wedding! The event was hosted in the suite that Elvis Presley lived in during his Hilton residency, setup with cigarette bars, old school “naked pens” where the guys and girls’ clothes would disappear as people wrote, and a troupe of exotic dancers that came in, performed, and interacted with guests!.The event told a story with food. Benihana brought in a hibachi station and a cook in honor of groom Chris’ favorite restaurant. The other groom wanted 250 orders of McDonald’s cheeseburgers and fries and passed them out as late night snacks. The couple’s beloved Chinese Crested dogs, sisters Flora and Petunia, were dressed in high fashion custom lace and crystal collars, they sat on a bed and were visited by all guests who entered. Because the couple loves daffodils, another personal touch was a constructed “garden” in the middle of the entry foyer with over 250 yellow and white daffodils surrounded by candles.
