Ohh, I’ve been PUMPED to show you this day! Maddie and Stevie’s celebration was like the perfect mix playful and emotional! From Sure Thing Chapel to the Bellagio Portraits… it was non-stop laughter and fun and celebration.
As a Las Vegas wedding photographer, this is the kind of joy I live for!
When they first started dreaming they planned on eloping with just the two of them. But after thinking it over, they realized they wanted their favorite people there too. So they invited their closest friends and family to celebrate right alongside them. And it ended up being perfect for them!
Sure Thing Chapel has such a fun downtown Vegas vibe.
I’ve photographed here more times than I can count, and it honestly hasn’t gotten old. The pink velvet curtains with the iconic neon hearts. Disco balls. Tiny little details everywhere you look. The blue bathroom (IYKYK).
If you want to see more of my weddings from Sure Thing, check some out here and here.
If you’re thinking about Sure Thing Chapel, here’s a few details to know!
- Downtown Las Vegas location
- Retro pink interiors and neon signs
- Perfect for intimate weddings and elopements
- Fun vintage-inspired photo spots inside and outside
- Cozy ceremony space for close friends and family
Maddie walked into the chapel carrying the dreamiest bouquet of white roses while Stevie waited in a classic black tux with suspenders and the best retro mustache. Maddie’s look was every inch the Vegas-bride, complete with glam from Tiangco Hair and Makeup.The whole ceremony felt lighthearted from the start. Guests were laughing, cheering, and tearing up all at once.
The energy in the room was so warm. You could just FEEELLL how loved these two are.
Before we left for their Bellagio portraits, we stayed at the chapel to do some newly portraits in all the iconic locations.
We’re talking under the disco ball. In the photo booth. Sitting on the counter in the blue tile bathroom. Outside in front of the tattoo parlor.
I like to imagine my couples framing these photos in their home one day, and that makes me so happy to think about.
I mean, look at this newlywed joy!!
Next up? Bellagio Portraits!
After they were OFFICIALLY newlyweds (!!!!), Maddie and Stevie hopped into the coolest vintage black Rolls Royce and headed toward the Las Vegas strip for portraits. The car alone felt like something straight out of an old movie.
We stopped around downtown for photos surrounded by neon tattoo signs, glowing storefronts, and old Vegas charm before heading toward the Bellagio fountains.
As the sun went down, the whole city started glowing around them.
Sign me up for more Bellagio portraits, btw! They photos always turn out SO cool and it’s such an iconic way to memorialize your Vegas elopement.
Congratulations to Maddie & Stevie again! Your big day was so much fun to photograph; from your iconic chapel “I Do’s” to the Bellagio portraits!
I’ll be dreaming about this day for a long time!!!
