sounds like my last vegas trip...minus the cash part.

i like the rides on the stratesphere. you can jump off the top of that thing now
 
Have lunch at the Venetian along the canal, take the gondola ride. If you want to dance check out the Coyote Ugly @ New York, if you like great rock go see Franky Perez @ teh PAlms on sundays @ 9 or the RedRock on Wednesdays - the best rock show ive ever seen.

Late night go down to freemont street, the light show is cool, the zip lines are fun as well. If it is after 11pm try to find the Griffin, it is a great locals bar for hard rock, tattoo'ed and pierced people. It is 2 blocks from Binions.

Have fun, it is a blast!
 
Eat a romantic supper atop the Stratosphere and vist the Hoover Dam. Also Red Rock canyon is not to far outside the city so rent a Jeep and take a nice cruise through there. Just walking down the strip at night is an experience in itself.

Also take something to sell at the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop. Maybe you'll end up on TV.
 
Go north of town and visit Valley of Fire State park . Red Rock Conservation area is west of town and is well worth the drive . Death Valley is longer drive , but theres lots to see .

Hoover Dam is a definite and its just south of town . I flew in to Vegas yesterday , hope your flight in is less bumpy than mine was [puke]
 
we are getting married at the top of the Stratosphere (and im scared of hights:D )

We are taking two friends, I am more the positive one will end up like the first reply, in fact we are taking bets on what night he will be missing.

Yes, jon and mike are both taking something to sell at pawn stars shop. It is a must for them.. I think Jon is more excitied about that then he is about our marriage :D

Great ideas I will have to check most of them out! thanks guys

BTW, I never flew before so I will let you know if I had a bumpy ride
 
On the flight you will fly over the Grand Canyon, pretty cool to see fromt the air.
 
Have a great trip and Best Wishes for a Happy Marriage!
 
Fremont street in downtown Vegas,, It's classic Vegas with a modern upgrade.. Gotta go, just tell any cab driver, Fremont street. and congrats
 
Grab a frosty rum beverage in the skull cup over at the pirate ship, then when it gets dark wait at Bellagio for a complete water show. It really is neat.

I like to see the lions at MGM and then run over to hit the slots at Luxor.

....and see how many clicking cards you can get handed to you while walking the strip. I chose a card and my girl would pretend to be the girl on the card. Those who know what I'm talking about, know it's fun!
 
Just do as much as you can. I went a few years ago, before I could gamble and I still had a blast. Walking up and down the strip is so much fun and you meet alot of really cool people and might even meet someone famous....I mean it is vegas. I know this is crazy, but the Mcdonalds right there on the strip is really cool to me for some reason...Ceasar's palace is really cool oh and yeah, you HAVE to go to Gold and Silver pawn...I want to go so bad....I heard Corey just got arrested a couple days ago....
 
Don't count on the Pawn Stars actually being there. I was there a few weeks ago and they were saying how they are rarely in the shop unless filming is going on and then it is pretty much closed off to the general public as you can tell from the TV show when people are selling them things. It does stay packed though even though they aren't there.

I don't understand how you can not be there if you work there and own the place...:confused:
