Las Vegas virgin

[25Anni]

My husband and I are going on our 1st trip to Las Vegas the end of April for our 25th Anniversary. We'll be revewing our vows with Elvis (why not!). We already booked Beatles/Love and Ratpack shows. Any other MUST SEES?

Have you already booked your Elvis? If not, I have a recommendation. He's the best in the business. Let me know..........

25anni I juuuust have to ask ... why are you classifying the Rat Pack as a "must see show"? mK

In addition to "Love", I would recommend "Spamalot" at the Wynn resort.

Is it my 'must see'? No. We did book Elvis already. Elvis at Grace Land. Would he be the one you recommend? AND we booked to stay at the MGM, the small hotel.

Yeah, SPAMALOT is lots of fun if you're a Monte Python fan! I'll see it for my 4th time in June. I suggest CENTER ORCHESTRA, rows 4,5,6,7,8... centerish. 1st, 2nd rows are great too for watching the actors up close...thats where I sat the first time I saw it but...you're real close, you won't see their feet,lol. 1.888.320.7110 Cirque's MYSTERE is always a MUST SEE. It's Cirque's first, best experience of what Cirque is all about, most affordable and...LOTS OF FUN! NOT TO WORRY...its totally different than LOVE. I suggest SECTION 203 for your 1st choice...ROWS AA,BB,CC if possible. *NOTE. Choose seats in the middle of the rows AWAY from the stairs. Theres a guardrail around the stairs that will be in your view. SECTION 204 or 202 would be you other choices, as close to center 203 as possible. GET YOUR TICS IN ADVANCE. 1.800.944.7444 and be in your seats 15min. before show time for all the PRE-SHOW FUN! NO website bookings/NO disappointments...CALL THE BOX OFFICE. RAT PACK a must see?...YEAH, for some folks. I saw it at Greek Isle and had lots of fun. I'm seeing it again in the PLAZA's classic old style show room in May...really looking forward to it! The LIVE BAND is made of LON BRONSON's horn section...ya can't get any better than that! The show room is MATERDEI SEATING so you can 'tip' you way up front if you like...

I would also recommend the Rat Pack. My mum and I loved it! I would also recommend Mamma Mia or Phantom. You can generally see them in any city but there's nothing like seeing them in Vegas.

Six years ago hubby and I did the same thing. We renewed our vows with Elvis, tried to see most of the free stuff, saw some shows. And because you CAN'T do it all in 1 trip, in May we will be taking our 16th trip to Vegas. Congrats on 25 years. Have a great time and remember to bring comfy shoes you'll need them.

A first trip to Vegas is overwhelming. Don't plan too much as you will be a nervous wreck trying to fit it all in. Just visiting and looking at all of the different casinos can takes days. The fountains in front of the Bellagio, I think, are a must see for everyone the first trip. Two shows planned might be enough for your first trip also. How long are you staying? If it is a long time and you want to see another great show, I would recommend "Mystere" at TI or "Mamma Mia" at Mandalay Bay. Both great shows. Most important of all is to bring comfortable shows (not new ones) as there is more walking than you can imagine. Congratulations on your 25th wedding anniversary. Have a great time. Hopefully you will post a trip report when you return.

Hopefully you will post a trip report when you return. We live close to New York and Mamma Mia, Spamalot and a few other shows are there (haven''t seen it though). Anyone ever go to the Price is Right show? How about a 5 hour round trip bus ride to someplace?
