Lucky Wedding Packages at the Bellagio

Saying I do in Sin City may sound sinfully tacky, but it’s actually the perfect place to get hitched without the stress of a big bash. Picture just the two of you (and a few key witnesses) alone in the desert — with a few necessary luxuries.

Make your Vegas nuptials even luckier — hurry up and book the 10/10/10 package at the Bellagio, arguably the chicest spot on the strip. The October special includes pre-wedding pampering at the spa and salon, a ceremony at one of the hotel’s sweet chapels, and a deluxe lakeview room overlooking Bellagio’s famous fountains. (Or if you’re thinking ahead, go for the fortuitous 11/11/11 package).

It must be your lucky day.

Destination Weddings at the Boca Raton Resort

Getting married with your feet in the sand isn’t really your style — though you love the beach (while wearing a bikini), you’re more of a ballroom and Blahnik girl.

We’ve found the perfect combo of beach and black tie at the Boca Raton Resort in Florida. These days, Boca isn’t just for your grandma — this glam, 1920s Spanish-inspired resort (divided into a pristine yacht club and sleek beach club) boasts a wedding program that will blow your mind. Perhaps the best combo of events is a lively sunset rehearsal dinner on the beach (fresh seafood, live music, strong cocktails), followed the next day by an elegant reception inside the club (fine china, fresh flowers, flowing Champagne). Tap into the spectacular in-house design and culinary teams to dream up your vision of Florida chic — we’d recommend lavish centerpieces, lots of gorgeous hours d’oeuvres and a towering key lime cake. Other weekend options when guests aren’t dancing and dining: spa treatments, a private cruise, tennis, croquet or lounging in a poolside cabana.

Grandma would approve.

Intimate Affairs at Colorado’s Trappers Cabin

A quiet little wedding at home? Not so quiet. After you bring in the painters, landscapers, tents and dance floor, your cozy reception has turned into a circus.

Move the party to your new home away from home. Our favorite is the newly renovated Trappers Cabin, an idyllic little mountain lodge tucked away in the luxe enclave of Beaver Creek, CO. A pretty lawn is perfect for an intimate ceremony of 30 guests, then move inside the well-appointed log cabin for cocktails and cuisine (prepared by a private chef, of course). Or, consider a group retreat for a bachelorette (or bachelor) weekend — with four bedrooms (and a stocked bar) it easily sleeps 10 friends, and a private ski instructor will take you out on the slopes just steps away (in summer, arrange for group hiking or horseback riding trips).

If seclusion is your thing, book Trappers for a honeymoon that truly gets away from it all — take a dip in the hot tub, cozy up in front of the fireplace, and steal away from society for at least a few nights.

Home sweet home.

Swanky Celebrations at The Pierre NYC

Thinking of marrying in true NYC style? The Pierre is the quintessential Manhattan paradise — even suave Don Draper thinks so, but don’t take his word for it.

Steal away for a quick pre-wedding getaway to check out the uptown splendor with the hotel’s “Mad Affair at the Pierre” offer, a one-night package (available until September 6) to sip champagne in a private suite, lock eyes over dinner for two at the swanky Two E lounge, then slip back to the room to watch the addictive Mad Men on DVD (among other things). If the hotel wins your heart, consider booking one of the gorgeous newly renovated suites (choose from renaissance, modern, or total gilded luxe) for pre-ceremony bridal prep (plenty of room for hair and makeup, plus bridesmaids and moms) and wedding night fun — the private terraces are even big enough to host an intimate afterparty for your closest 50 or so friends.

Then stay for the after-afterparty.

Custom-Designed Board Shorts by Shortomatic.com

Your guy’s had his share of groomsman gifts he’ll never use, and he refuses to continue the cycle. While those flasks and pocket knives may come in handy someday, a summer wedding calls for a thank-you token that’s more beachy keen.

Straight out of sunny Cali, Shortomatic.com’s custom-designed, limited-edition board shorts will satisfy even the pickiest pal. Designed by up-and-coming artists around the world, the shorts’ many colorful abstract patterns and provocative prints (skulls, ninjas surfing, sexy tattooed women — or upload your own art) are cool enough to show off at the shore for at least the next few seasons — they’re crafted from the durable and soft microfiber fabric that’s preferred by surfers. But to make each pair of trunks truly special, you can write a short and sweet message (up to 140 characters) to be printed inside the waist band. It’ll give the groom and his boys an “I love you, man” moment without being too mushy.

Call it a leg up.
