    Congratulations! Seems like you have a lot planned - awesome! Saw 'O' @ Bellagio a few years back - got hooked on Vegas shows as a result... Absinthe @ Caesars is FANTASTIC - saw it a few weeks ago. ENJOY!

    This looks like the format I use to plan my trips as well. Sounds like you'll have a lot of fun.

    Had a kobe beef burger there when I was out in Vegas in 2010. Still talk about how awesome it was, probably the best burger I have ever eaten.
     

  7. It's the Kobe I'm going for, I've already checked out the menu :D
     
  8. Glad you enjoyed the shows, I'm sure we will. We both loved Ka.

    Thanks :)

    Yeah can't wait to go, don't know where I'm going to fit in poker though :haha:

    This is an excellent Plan.

    Best of the Best, True Honeymoon.

    But Vegas is Vegas. Better to plan less, than more.

    I believe you have a great plan. Love the next day after arrival, you have NOTHING PLANNED!

    WONDERFUL!!!!

    Please do not make the mistake I did, trying to do too much.

    Vegas is not going to work as planned, no matter how much you have planned. If you try, you will

    RUIN the HONEYMOON.

    let some stuff go. Way too aggressive IMOP.

    Take your list, and drop 1/3 of it. Else, too aggressive = unhappy bride.

    I am a planning NUT... And I destroyed our two first Vegas Vacations doing what you are doing.

    You think your plan is not full enough?

    Cut back 1/3, and be free to just enjoy the moments, for there will be plenty of un-for-seen filler.

    If you do 1/2 of the list and not Ruin IT! You will be right on the mark!

    Cut 1/3 out = Best chances to enjoy Vegas.
     
  10. Yeah most days we basically have the whole day to do what we want, can't wait to go back. Two weeks today!

    And don't we wish it was us! DAM it. :kiss:
     
  13. :haha: :haha:

    Unfortunately I'm not 18 anymore, the days of going at it all day are loooooooooooong gone. 3 minute quickie in the morning and a Bellagio buffet will suffice.

    Looks like a good plan! I suggest going up to the Foundation Room patio after the Michael Jackson One show for drinks and the view.
    We love Burger Bar - don't miss the huge, alcoholic milkshakes if you feel naughty ;)

    Congratulations on your upcoming marriage!

    A really nice variety.
    Hopefully these are tentative plans.
    Especially for being in Vegas the first time its hard to still to a schedule.

    Congrats on your upcoming wedding and good luck while in Vegas!

    The funny thing about itineraries and plans in that city is that they go by the wayside quickly. It's nonstop sensory overload from the moment you step off the jetway. My girlfriend and I had our first trip planned and we ended up scrapping it by the second day. Shit I've been nine times (cue the principal in Ferris Bueller... Niiiine tiiiimes!) and still haven't hit things we wanted to do on that first trip.
     
  17. We've been to Vegas before, all of the shows are bought and paid for so only the restaurants we would change if needs be :)
     
  18. Will hit up the bar sounds good, thanks.
     
  19. Yeah, the first time we went we didn't go near downtown sadly, I said this time we would so need to make sure we do that!
