    Hi fellow degens!

    Like the title says, the Mrs. And I are celebrating our tenth anniversary next week. What better way to spend it than in Las Vegas? Spending all 7 nights at the cosmo in a terrace suite with a fountain view. Going to try the $50 trick (I know it's $20, but this is a busy weekend so maybe I need to do $50?).

    We arrive tomorrow morning at 11:30 local time and I have scheduled a limo to pick us up and take us to the airport. I have been planning this trip since we went in October and my wife doesn't know anything other than the two days she'll be spending at the spa while I play in poker tourneys.

    Here is our itinerary:

    Sunday:
    Arrive, eat, make some wagers on the game, get drunk and gamble!

    Monday:
    Wife will do some shopping while I gamble up and down the strip to get some more $1 chips for my collection. After that I am doing a virtual high limit pull with my poker buddies. We have $1k and I'll be streaming it in Facebook messenger haha.

    Tuesday:
    I'm playing in the Venetian $40k poker tourney while my wife spends the day at the Cosmo Spa.

    Wednesday:
    Hanging out at the Bellagio, then dinner reservations at Lago. Heading to see Brad Garrett at his comedy club then we'll do the Happy Hour on the High Roller.

    Thursday:
    Going to check out the downtown casinos and Lucky Dragon to get some new chips.

    Friday:
    I'm playing in the $10k at the Wynn while my wife does spa day number 2. Might try to do Zumanity.

    Saturday:
    We have tickets in the golden circle for the Michael Jackson One show.

    Going to be doing lots of drinking and gambling, I have a gambling budget of $8k and then another $1k for the slot pull plus a few hundred for sports bets.

    Obligatory bankroll shot:

    Going to do my best to keep it live, really appreciate all of the great trip reports from everyone else so I hope I can return the favor.

    One question: I'm considering renewing our vows, but don't want anything extravagant. Any suggestions for a nice but not expensive way to do this?

    Good luck PartTimeDegen!

    What are you trying to get by using the $50 trick? You already have Terrace Suite Fountain View, so just curious.

    Figured it might work to get upgraded to a 1 bedroom or wraparound.

    DH and I renewed our vows for our 25th anniversary and used www.lasvegasweddingwagon.com

    Cost was $129. The Reverend and his wife (she's the photographer) were awesome! It was just my husband and I and we chose to renew our vows in our suite at the Venetian. It was perfect, exactly what we wanted. After our vow renewal, we had some pictures taken around the hotel, both inside and outside. I highly recommend them and you can't beat the price! Everything is booked online and then they texted me the day of. I checked the calendar for this coming week and they have openings.

    Have a great trip and happy anniversary!

    Looks like a great line-up of events, good luck on those tournaments!

    Two ideas on the vow renewal.....

    1) just a google search so can't vouch for it, but.....there's a mobile service where you can book Vegas locations, they meet you there, includes officiant and pics for 30 minutes up to 10 guests for $129....could have fun picking spot and great that photos included.

    http://www.lasvegasweddingwagon.com/

    2) since you are doing high roller anyway, the Caesars site has a high roller wedding package....but it's $995 during day, more at night.

    https://www.caesars.com/linq/high-roller/weddings/packages

    Happy anniversary to you both, looking forward to pics!!

    Thanks for the tips everyone! Will check out the mobile renewal, might be awesome to do on the balcony.

    I guess I'll skip the $50 trick. Might make it harder to get everything comped anyway, right?

    Just over 5 hours till we land!

    They're taking wagers up on the 4th floor in case anyone is stuck in that massive line downstairs.

    You need to login with your room number and last name.

    Down $500 at slots so far and $100 at roulette. Watching the game in the room while the wife gets some secret pizza. She's the best!
