We were married here in February 2019. I did see one review on this site saying that to be careful as these people did not do what they said. I cannot even fathom what that review meant as my experience with the Church of the West could not have been any better. What you see is what you get and you get what you pay for. It is as simple as that. We had the most amazing day. We were treated so well, we had researched this fully, we engaged with the wedding planner, in our case, Lauren, who was terrific. We researched about the photos and decided on the Diamond package and we were not disappointed as Tracey, the photographer took beautiful photos and then she presented them to us in the most wonderful way and we can't thank her enough for that slideshow. I would highly recommend this venue, speak to them, let them know what you want and they will meet your requests.

Wonderful place to get married or renew your vows. Lovely, gracious staff. Beautiful chapel and grounds. My husband and I got married there ten years ago, and recently renewed our vows. Both occasions were lovely and memorable.

The team was very kind and accommodating to last minute party changes and never made us feel uncomfortable.The venue is a great intimate spot and very photogenic. I'd recommend for anyone.

The idea of getting married in Las Vegas might sound cheap and tacky but thanks to the team at the Little Church of the West it was anything but. The chapel itself, despite being on the strip, has retained all its character and charm and most importantly it is wonderfully quiet and peaceful. It was such a great wedding that we're already thinking about returning in a few years to renew our vows.

Awesome help with even the smallest detail. The staff and minister was great...and the church itself had that kinda special vibe. I'm very happy I chose this place...and so is my wife. Check out this place if your thinking of getting hitched in Vegas. It just has a special vibe...and a romantic feeling there. Makes it just special....

My husband and I just got married here last week and it was such a wonderful experience. It's beautiful! The ceremony was exactly what we wanted and the pictures to remember this special day are amazing! I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to get married in Vegas! Couldn't be happier with this decision for our big day!

We recently got married at the Little Church of the West and were thrilled with the level of service for the simplest of ceremonies. The chapel is tasteful as well as the grounds. The photographer and minister were wonderful. They went out of their way to make our experience unforgettable. The whole process was very efficient from the booking to the service.

Our little wedding November 2018, was PERFECT! The chapel itself is beautiful, Laura keep in contact and although small details changed (by me) throughout our planning, everything was perfect. Getting the bridal room was a great decision for my girlfriends and me to get ready without being seen.. everyone knew I wanted the element of surprise for my groom (not our first wedding so really sought after the traditional ceremony) and it all came together seamlessly! I cannot say enough about the chapel, our Pastor (again, PERFECT for us!), the photographer and everyone on staff... they made our wedding very special and stress free. If you want a romantic Vegas wedding there is no need to look any farther than the Little Church of the West. We opted for a western wedding and this chapel was wonderful, felt so comfortable and warm with the wood interior.... every detail was perfect beyond any expectations is all I can say!!! Loved the entire experience with these folks and the beautiful venue. Perfect!!

My wife and I were married there recently, everything went great. By far the nicest chapel we found in Vegas. Great customer service, great photographer. Would highly recommend

Five stars! The ceremony was great, Well performed, and the photographer somehow got decent shots of this camera-shy couple who usually don't look good in photos.We should have used the indoor chapel and not the garden as it became breezy *after* we got started, but that's not their fault 🙂 (Edited as my original review sounded a little like I had a non-positive experience, which is NOT the case at all)

This was a beautiful place to get married. Our guests enjoyed the ceremony and Nicole was the person who helped us with our booking. She was very nice. The packages on their website say there are no hidden fees but the package we got only included the candid ceremony pics on USB. The cost to get the pictures taken by the photographer after the ceremony were not clearly listed on the website with the package info description so it felt kinda like a hidden fee to us. Other than that we were very happy with our ceremony!

Everyone went above and beyond to make our day special. Every single person from the office, to the minister and the photographer were great!!! The grounds are absolutely beautiful and it was great that people who couldn't make it to Vegas were able to watch the video of the ceremony. We would definitely recommend Little Church of the West to anyone wanting to get married at a venue in Vegas. You definitely won't regret it.

We really enjoyed our ceremony. The staff was incredibly easy to work with and I would do it all over again! The photographer was also amazing to work with and she was clear on how she wanted us to pose! I would Little Church of the West a 10/10 and I highly recommend!!!

This is the best place in Vegas to get married. Everyone is nice and organized. This place has history and stands alone on the strip.If we could give four and a half Stars we would. We only have two minor complaints, #1 we got married on a busy day (8/18/18) and everything was organized well, but we felt slightly rushed. #2 the photo packages seemed slightly over priced for what you get and they don't bother to take any pictures of the parents or wedding party. Just the groom and bride.

We are from the U.K. so choosing a Las Vegas chapel to get married in, we thought was going to be quite difficult as there are so many. When we saw photographs of The Little Church of the West online we were instantly intrigued as it looks so different to other chapels. With living so far away you can’t just pop in and check out every venue before you book so it was a little daunting at first and we must’ve sent hundreds of emails asking so many questions!! But we couldn’t ask for better communication. Nicole was amazing and would reply promptly answering any queries we may have had. We also liked the location of the chapel. In between Mandalay Bay and the Las Vegas sign, it seemed more intimate compared to other chapel locations; which are more clustered together at the other end of the Las Vegas strip. As soon as we arrived in Vegas we took a walk over to the chapel to view in person. The grounds of the chapel are so pretty. Very quaint and historic. The minister who performed our ceremony was also amazing! It felt very personal and we felt very comfortable. He also gave us advice on ‘what to do next’, paperwork-wise, as a British person getting married in Vegas. He was very knowledgeable and was able to do the paperwork for us to get the wedding correctly registered in the U.K. The photographer was also lovely. She captured some very memorable photographs. I maybe would’ve liked a bit more time to look at our photographs before purchasing but we knew beforehand that we had to choose our photographs immediately after the ceremony. I probably would’ve been there hours trying to choose if I was given more time!!! So we ended up buying one of the photograph packages; which we didn’t plan on buying originally but were so glad we did. It would’ve been so hard to choose a small number of photographs that were included with our package.We know most Las Vegas wedding ceremonies are fairly short but they didn’t make us feel rushed. Being able to view the video of our ceremony online too means I can relive the memories again and again!! We thoroughly enjoyed our day and so glad we made the journey to Vegas to get married. Thank you Little Church of the West for making our day so special 💍🥂

Everyone here was absolutely amazing!!! They made our special day wonderful! We are from NY and flew to Vegas just to get married here. My 3 yo son got sick from the heat and all the ladies were more than accommodating. They made sure that he and us were ok!!

We had a great wedding here at the little Church of the West. It was just what we hoped for. We wanted a nice simple day and for it to be easy and light hearted. It was far better than I ever expected. The chapel itself is lovely and the bridal sweet was really nice and the staff are lovely. Our photographer was fab and she made sure to get close up pictures of the charms I had brought of my dad and sister in law who had passed away and she was really great at capturing our special day. I had made all kinds of plans around Vegas for photos in case we didn’t get many we liked with it being a quick ceremony But we didn’t even bother with them as all our photographs were gorgeous and we just loved them all. She did a great job. The minister was great, he was funny and kept it light hearted. Just what we needed as it had the potential to be a very hard day for us with certain people not being there but everyone had a great time. Smiles all around and we just loved our day! It was well and truly perfect for us. We didn’t feel rushed even though I know how busy the chapel is. Just all flowed nicely and we loved it. We were delighted to be able to see the video as well.just smiling the whole time. If you want a Vegas wedding this is the place to do it! Was great!

Love this place. We were married the 14 years ago and stopped by to take some pics with b our kids. They were super gracious and accommodating. No casino or slot machines, just a great little Chapel and a fantastic people working there. If you're going to married in Vegad, this is the best place hands down.

Nice grounds but has a old country feel to it. It definitely could use some upgrades. Extremely nice crew which was pleasant. The pastor looks like a fake Italian elvis. Lol. Overall great job.

Just stopped by and had a look. A really small and cozy chapel. Looked very personal and intimate. There were ongoing weddings and everyone looked very pleased with the arrangements.

This chapel is definitely the best chapel in Vegas. I was married in the Chapel on November 6th, 1993 when it was on the Hacienda gtounds. The experience was amazing and I wouldn't change a thing! It felt cozy and romantic. The staff was accommodating and pleasant. Memorable experience!

We couldn’t have picked a better chapel! We were so happy with how everything was organized. They were very patient while waiting for our guest to arrive (who were late!) but everything turned out great. The photographer took very beautiful pictures and we were very pleased with all the pictures. I recommend Little Church of the West, we loved every moment of our special day! 3/15/18 ❤️

Just WOW! Everything from my first call to my wedding contact Nicole Bartlett to end of wedding was absolutely perfect! We booked the VIP package we were having a destination wedding with about 75 guests. She took care of everything from flowers ,booking the minister , photographer and moral support! It ran perfectly as scheduled without a blurb at all ! Limos and champagne or included ! Couldn’t have been any happier on our special day ! Highly recommend this beautiful chapel and the staff !

My husband and I did a vow renewal for our 5 year anniversary. The site itself is absolutely adorable. The minister did a great job with the short ceremony we had. We originally found this place on Groupon, and the staff was great to work with to get us a good deal. I wasn't looking to spend a fortune, and we only had 2 guests with us. The chapel seats a good bit of people as does the outside area. My only disappointment was the lack of flowers outside, definitely thought there would be more. Also, our photo session was a bit rushed. I totally get that we had the lowest package available, but as a former photographer - it was definitely a little short. We did get some nice photos, so I am happy about that. All in all, cute place for a fun vow renewal .

You can't not go in.Didn't get married here (not sure the wife would've liked that!) but it was definitely an attraction to stop by and visit. Great for photo ops and the staff were more than welcoming for tourists just dropping in.

Little Church of the West gave us a great experience from the staff at the office to the photographer, and the minister who married us. Even though we had a last minute let’s get married idea everything was fine... it was a quick ceremony but it was a beautiful and personal. I really recommend this place!

If you want a quick, no fuss and a stress free ceremony but also an occasion never to forget then the Little Church of the West in Las Vegas is without doubt a great location to be married at. The Rev. Brian Mills service was very professional yet warm in content and Tracy a wonderful witness/ photographer, Thank you both for making our day Special, Ken & Janis from North Vancouver BC Canada

The team went above and beyond to make our short little ceremony special. The minister was very sweet and sincere and the photographer did a great job!! We are thrilled we chose Little Church of the West. Absolute best place in Vegas for a wedding. You won't regret booking here.

We were married in January of this year at Little Church of the West.I can only say as other reviewers have that it was the best! Started planning the wedding in November and selected the Lucky in Love package. I was a little nervous planning a long distance wedding butthe communications with Brenda from start to finish were prompt andvery helpful. As this was not our first marriage, it was just the two of usthere. It was wonderful being picked up by the limo from our hotel and the historical chapel was beautifully lit for our evening wedding. Brian, the minister, was professional. His words made the ceremony intimate and meaningful to us. Loved the photographer!! Through noone's fault, we had requested to say our own vows for the ceremony butapparently hadn't been communicated. She insisted after the ceremony that we return to the chapel and say our vows. It was so beautiful and wonderful to have those moments. Thank you.We did purchase a photo package and thought the price was reasonable.I also made an addition to the package bouquet which turned out beautifully.Looking back, Little Church of the West, was the perfect place for ourwedding. I would highly recommend to anyone this charming place as well as the caring and competent staff.

Chapel Tour

The Little Church of the West, Las Vegas Wedding Chapel was conceived by William J. Moore Jr. in 1941 as part of his plans for a resort hotel, a relatively new venture in Las Vegas. Mr Moore was an architect and builder for his uncle R.E Griffith of California. Moore described his reason for inclusion of a wedding chapel as an attempt to garner a share of the lucrative and expanding wedding chapel market in the area.

The original freestanding wedding chapel in Las Vegas

While the Little Church of the West was built to attract business to the Last Frontier, it was also the first such facility designed specifically as a wedding chapel. Others already in operation were converted from buildings which had a prior use.

Old Vegas Charm for the modern wedding couple

Historic Wedding Chapel

wedding chapel

Originally built as part of the Last Frontier Hotel located on an isolated stretch of highway that would one day become the famous Las Vegas”Strip”, the Little Church of the West upholds the heritage of Las Vegas with its unique architecture. It’s a freestanding replica of an old west mining town church. With an exterior of cedar and an interior of California redwood, the chapel looks much the same today as when it was first built. It speaks of the early days of Las Vegas when its business district consisted of only the first three blocks of Fremont Street.

Las Vegas Weddings

As the town grew with the population boom caused by the construction of near by Hoover Dam, Fremont Street began to pulsate with wall-to-wall casinos. As first class resorts began to dot the desert skyline and big name entertainment lit up the beckoning marquis, the stage was set for the Little Church of the West to take its place in the annals of Las Vegas history.

Part of Las Vegas History

Wedding chapel in Las Vegas

Chapel

Attesting to its historical significance, the Little Church is listed on the National Registry of Historical Places, the only such place on the “Strip” with this honor. One of the requirements for inclusion is that the structure retains its original integrity. “It hasn’t changed,” says current owner. “I mean, there’s been some painting and re-carpeting but the pews in there are believed to be the ones built with the chapel in 1942.” The four Victorian lamps that light the chapel are believed to be from 19th-century railroad cars but have since been converted from gas to electric. In 2017, the Little Church of the West will be celebrating its 75th anniversary and remains the oldest existing structure on the Las Vegas “Strip”.

Historic Wedding Chapel in Vegas

How did this quaint little wedding chapel stand the test of time and all the facelifts of the Las Vegas Strip? Simply put, it moved — 3 times to be exact. The chapel first moved from its original location on the north side of the Last Frontier Hotel to the south side in 1954. In 1978, it was moved onto the grounds of the Hacienda Hotel to accommodate the building of the Fashion Show Mall and in 1996, the chapel was moved to its current location on the corner of Russell Road and Las Vegas Blvd to accommodate the building of the Mandalay Bay Hotel & Casino. Smith says the chapel has been popular because of its historical significance and its unique appearance. “There’s a lot of mystique about the chapel”.

The marriage capital of the world

The wedding venue business flourished because of easy marriage laws. Unlike other places, Nevada did not require a waiting period and there were no requirements for blood tests. Today, those particular reasons for traveling to Nevada to get married have become less significant as laws in other states have changed, but these reasons remain significant for people from such countries as Germany which has strict laws governing marriage, adding that last year people from 22 countries were married here. For Americans, however, getting married in Las Vegas remains hassle-free, inexpensive, and something to remember. Visitors can visit the Little Church of the West for a self guided Chapel Tour. Visitor may need to wait for a wedding ceremony to finish. Please visit the chapel office before entering the chapel area. Visit the Little Church of the West blog
