mnko, I know what you are saying about Ireland being expensive, but Vegas is a lot, lot lot more expensive!!! You may plan for it not to be, but they will bleed you dry there and it is all very artificial. Several high school mates of mine got married in Vegas and all wished they had not - and they are all American, well except for one German couple! There are some beautifully romantic places on this planet. Vegas is NOT one of them though! It really all depends on what kind of thing you two are into. Wherever you two go, I wish you both a wonderful time and many, many years of good health and happiness together!
