some pictures from Vegas

A few pictures from Vegas.

The day before we left I realized we needed a camera. I have a big DSLR that I knew I wasn’t going to lug around with me, and the cameras on our iPhones are slow and don’t take great pictures. So, we ran out and bought a tiny Nikon Coolpix. I don’t know if I could recommend this size camera for it’s picture quality (the tiny but more expensive Canon cameras seem preferred for that) but having a lightweight and easy to carry camera was fantastic.

Above are a few of my favorite memories. From the top left: The night before, we went to the marriage license bureau and got window #10 that had heart stickers in it. The light in the makeup mirror in our (fabulous) bathroom was burned out so I brought it out to the window to apply wedding makeup, I had a view of the Palazzo in one direction, and the Trump tower in the other. Before we headed to the chapel we went to the hotel lobby and got Scott a shoe shine. A crooked mirror picture from the chapel. Afterwards we got slices of cake to go from Freed’s and brought them to the lobby of the Bellagio to eat. A picture of just-married us under the trees in the lobby of the Wynn. Some people take pictures of their wedding rings next to flowers, we did our on top of a cocktail napkin while sipping cool drinks next to a fake waterfall. A shaky trial at taking a W-E-D handsign in a margarita bar (notice the salt on the table).
