ARIA Resort & Casino Weddings
ARIA pairs sleek contemporary architecture with full-service planning, offering everything from an intimate glass chapel to a 1,500-seat ballroom on the CityCenter campus.
About ARIA Resort & Casino
ARIA is the Strip's polished modern option, trading Old Vegas kitsch for clean lines, floor-to-ceiling glass, and metropolitan skyline views. Couples work with dedicated in-house coordinators and can scale from a small chapel ceremony to a large Primrose Ballroom reception. Sister property Vdara adds the light-filled Silk Road Ballroom for overflow. It suits couples who want a sophisticated, design-forward backdrop rather than a themed chapel, plus the logistical muscle of a major resort. On-site Sky Suites, live-streaming for remote guests, and full culinary services make it a strong pick for destination weddings planned from afar.
What couples love
Reviewers repeatedly praise the professionalism and responsiveness of ARIA's dedicated wedding coordinators, singling them out by name for making remote planning feel effortless. Couples love the sleek, elegant modern chapel and the comprehensive packages, noting strong attention to detail and quality food. The live-streaming capability for remote guests and flexible spaces that scale from intimate to 1,500 people are frequently called standout perks.
Good to know
Several couples felt the in-house photography pricing was excessive and were frustrated by limited ability to bring in an outside photographer. One review noted the ceremony felt rushed at the start, and a few flagged inconsistent post-wedding photography follow-up. The corporate, big-resort scale can feel less personal than a boutique chapel for couples wanting an intimate experience.
