Ok so I'm rather new to this whole pricescope forum, but I have posted a few pictures of my progress with my wedding planning in my thread.  But perhaps you ladies could give me some advice on location!

Let me give you all some background as to why I am sort of planning and buying stuff, but I don't have a set date yet (It will be sometime in January of 07, i'm aiming for jan. 15) because my FI is overseas (not in the war thank god!!! ) and will be returning in mid December.  Once he returns we are going to Vegas to get married and I had already planned out exactly how I wanted my wedding...

I chose the chapel at mandalay bay, you can view pictures here:

Then have a mini reception in the bayside buffet (also located in Mandalay bay) because I wont be having more than 10 guests accompanying me.

Here is my Dilemma!!!!

I found this lovely little church that is outside of vegas and they offer civil as well as religious services!  I fell in love with this chapel in this church because it is very simple and I can take advantage and just have a catholic ceremony along with the civil one!  My FI and I had planned to get married in a church back here in Boston sometime next year, but I figured that I'll be dressed and have my closest family members and friends present so I can just get that out of the way! (I am not a fan of big weddings... And the reason why I am having a Vegas wedding is avoid all of the fuss of having to plan a massive wedding for 150+ people, in vegas only the closes people to us will be in attendance).

Here are some pictures about the St. Judas chapel/church:

What do you guys think?  Should I stick to Mandalay Bay for the convenience of the location (in the vegas, since the other chapel is in boulder city) and stick to my original plan?

Or should I consider the St. Judas chapel and start a totally new plan (if I do this then I would have to scrap the bayside buffet idea)??

Welcoming all advice!!

Ohhh if I only had a date things would be soo much easier....

If you were gonna do a Catholic wedding, I'd do it at that little church. Save you the trouble of redoing another ceremony.

Oh, it's just me but i love the 2nd chapel!

You probably already know though, but I believe if you want to do a Catholic ceremony you need to work out the details with your "home" parish priest.
If you don't have one, give a call to the parish out there and they can help you get things in order to have it be "valid".

Good luck!!
