Joined in Bliss with A Lip Smacking Kiss

Say “I do’’ in the most quintessential Vegas fashion – at the newest and most highly-rated wedding chapel on The Strip, followed by a celebratory feast like no other with a pampering parade of gourmet eats and drinks at three acclaimed restaurants plus one prominent bar in the city’s dynamic downtown just steps away.

Vegas’ premier Bliss Wedding Chapel has partnered with the city’s award-winning culinary walking tour company, Lip Smacking Foodie Tours, to offer this special package that takes care of every need and want on your big day in true style. Whether walking down the aisle for wedding vows, renewals, or a commitment ceremony, you will enjoy luxury transportation – or optional Rolls Royce upgrade — to transport you to and from your hotel in pure comfort.

Choose your choice of music for the ceremony, as well as a bountiful, hand-tied bouquet and matching boutonniere.

One of the largest wedding chapels in the city is all yours for a 30-minute ceremony for up to 50 guests. Choose either a traditional ceremony that includes the lighting of a unity candle, or even opt for a rollicking “Viva, Las Vegas’’-style ceremony, with the Elvis escorting you and belting out three songs of your choice.

A professional photographer will be capturing your event and a digital download of the ceremony will be created and edited. Use of camera phones, video, and live streaming is permitted during the ceremony, too. Afterwards, your chauffeur will be waiting to take you to your first restaurant on your Foodie Tour for the night.

A professional tour guide leads the couple to four renowned establishments in the vibrant historic downtown, all the while entertaining with facts and stories about this revitalized district. Enjoy three to four signature dishes at each restaurant, along with immediate seating at the best tables in the house, all with VIP service.

The first stop is Carson Kitchen, founded by the late-great Kerry Simon, famed as the celebrity “rock ‘n’ roll’’ chef for his exuberance and passion. With an open kitchen, the restaurant affords an up close and personal view of all the action as you dive into classic American dishes that have been elevated with the freshest ingredients and imaginative flair.

Next, it’s on to downtown’s newest hot spot, La Mona Rosa. It’s impossible to miss with its 7-foot pink neon monkey clinging to the restaurant’s exterior in a nod to its name in Spanish for “the pink monkey.’’ Chefs Daniel Arias and Isidro Marquez-Castillo, who met while honing their skills at the upscale é by José Andrés, are the duo behind this vibrant Mexican restaurant. They’ve taken inspiration from their heritage, family recipes, and travels to create a menu of robust specialty dishes that highlight Mexico’s diverse regions, flavors, and culinary techniques.

That’s followed by 7^th & Carson, which was named “Restaurant of the Year’’ by the Nevada Restaurant Association just months after opening. At the heart of this distinguished restaurant is a blazing hearth oven that is used to cook everything from flatbreads to stocks to putting the finishing touches on desserts. The focus is always on hyper seasonal cooking made to showcase peak-fresh ingredients at their finest.

Stretch your legs at the one-of-a-kind Container Park, where shipping containers have been refashioned into bustling restaurants, boutiques selling locally-made goods, and a popular venue for free live music. Time it right to take a wedding photo in front of the towering, fire-shooting praying mantis, a monumental animated sculpture created originally for Burning Man. Or bring a lock to affix to the Love Locks heart-shaped sculpture, which countless couples have done in a sweet tradition.

Last but not least, quench your thirst at a favorite downtown bar and lounge to enjoy your choice of signature cocktail, red or white wine, local craft beer or soft drink to toast the joyous future ahead.
