Esther and Daniel had a black-tie affair for their wedding at the Venetian. The reception was overflowing with gorgeous white floral arrangements by Dahlia Florals and the couple couldn’t wait to show off the moves they had practiced for their first dance.

Their Story

“A familiar story…we met online,” says Esther. “Actually we knew of each other and recognized each other on the app, Coffee Meets Bagel. We immediately started talking for hours and it quickly progressed to becoming an official couple.”

Dan surprised Esther with a helicopter ride from Las Vegas to the Grand Canyon. The helicopter landed in the North Rim near the Colorado River and Dan got on one knee and forgot every word he meant to say. Esther still said “yes!”

“Honestly, you can’t beat the food at The Venetian,” says Esther. “Their cocktail hour is legendary and that’s still what most of our guests rave about to this day. On top of that, their ballroom is just spectacular and their service is unbeatable. Booking with them was seamless.”

Favorite Moment

“Our favorite moment was getting through our first dance to ‘Lifetime’ by Justin Bieber,” says Esther. “We spent a lot of time practicing and we were glad to show our family and friends how much we loved each other (and some of our dancing skills). We were also relieved to finally relax and party!”

Advice

“It’s impossible but try not to be overwhelmed,” says Esther. “We know it seems like there’s a million tasks but attack each task one at a time. You will feel like the list is never ending but don’t worry, it all comes together in the end.”
