Fabulous Time In Vegas - But Wedding Shopping Kind Of A Bust

We loved Las Vegas - it was tons of fun - tons of stuff to see and do…I've now said this a million times, but 4 days is just not enough time.

Besides all of the hotels, casinos, restaurants and shows to see, there is tons of shopping - a lot of high end shopping as well. We did do a little window shopping at the fancy stores…but our budget couldn't handle the $800 Louis Vuitton clutch/wallet thingy. Instead we spent some time at the Outlet Mall. This place also has some higher end stores (Lacoste, Coach, etc) - but it also has tons of mid-range stuff…Brooks Brothers, Kenneth Cole, Gap, J Crew, etc). My fiancĂ© was too focused on snagging deals on causal clothing to focus on finding a 3-button black suit…I guess he figured he could find one of those for a good deal easily enough back home. He did find some new black shoes…but they'll likely be worn out before the wedding as he'll be wearing them to work on a daily basis.

We searched high and low for the specific navy and green ties we are wanting for the Groomsmen - but no luck. I fear that we'll end up purchasing some simple solid navy ties - and at this point, it is A-OK with me. We'll make one more attempt at the local Moore's store…

And believe it or not I only ended up purchasing one item…which will likely be the dress I wear for our Ceremony Rehearsal…it is uber cute…here's a pic:
Now I'm just trying to find a pink shirt for my fiance to wear...any suggestions?
