    I'll agree that from that pic it isnt the most appealing looking food. Looks can be decieving though as it was bloody gorgeous.

    Ahh well - will aim to use one in August, one in March and one in April and see how I get on.

    Same for the four breakfast vouchers I got for some place in PH.

    It might be worth emailing them to ask for an exchange if you've bought too many from one place - this is from the T&C on their website:

    What is Restaurant.com’s Exchange Policy? Our over-the-top customer service means we want you to come back over and over again. If you aren’t satisfied with your choice of restaurant for any reason, just contact customer service by phone or email and you can exchange your Restaurant Gift Certificate for a either a Restaurant.com Gift Certificate or a Restaurant Gift Certificate to a different restaurant with an equivalent value.

    Please note that Certificates cannot be returned for a refund of the purchase price.

    Will they have any problems if they book the Friday night as well but just turn up to check-in on the Saturday? It still comes out at a decent price but just want to check they won't have any problems when they get there.

    I would expect that the reservation would be cancelled if they didn't turn up on the Friday...the first night's deposit will guarantee the room for a late arrival, but I'm doubtful that the next day would qualify...it could work, but I would never do it myself - too much risk...it may come down to how busy they are...or your friends may get there to find rooms available, but not at the rate they booked originally.

    I guess you could book it, then on the Friday have them call to say that they've been delayed and won't be arriving until Saturday...but I wouldn't just not turn up and expect all to be OK on Saturday.

    That said, I'm sure that we had it happen once aaaages ago - where we booked a hotel...then our plans had the potential to change and we wanted to arrive a day later...when we called to see if we could amend the reservation they would let us amend, but it would cost us more overall...maybe it was a Friday to Saturday arrival, I honestly can't remember.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Thanks for the reply.

    I know last time we were there in 2009 our flight got stuck on a runway after being diverted to AC due to the weather meaning we were over a day late getting into Vegas. I think we rang the hotel to make sure they kept our reservation.

    Not much choice if most hotels won't allow check-in on the Saturday, only other thing would be to have them crash on our floor for a night and book from the sunday.

    I think I must have become all giddy when I saw there were less than 100 days until the wedding - stayed up until 2am emailing back & forth with Roy's and the Signature.
    Roy's have been very helpful providing several dining options and saying we can confirm the table as and when we have fixed numbers.

    Have been dealing with a Britt in "Room Allocations" at The Signature. I emailed asking if it was possible for all of our guests to be in the same tower, possibly even the same floor. Though not right next door to us ;)
    She said that they'd be more than happy to sort that out - depending on availability of course.
    I sent her the names and check in/out dates of our guests.
    She has made the appropriate notes against the bookings and then confirmed she had changed all the bookings to show both guest names so that either one could check-in.
    So far so good :T

    I also called No.1 Lounge to book us in for 21st Oct at Gatwick South using our Groupon vouchers from March. Mmm champagne for brekkie. :beer:

    I think I might be panicking slightly as we are also moving mid-Aug, and then the Stag and Hen in early Sept.....and both of us working full time too.

    It really does all come together - we are doing our ceremony on the 30th August. If there is anything I can help with don't hesistate to ask.

    Few things we are doing;
    60 Days before you can pre-register your wedding online at Clark County which can save some time when you get to Vegas.
    I'm using Earth Limo's as they provided a super stretch for 9 people and were one of the few that can guarentee it would be white - for a $30 fee they are also providing drinks at cost.

    We have used The Empty Box company to help get the dress their in a nice travel box that meets hand luggage restrictions, Debi at Fit for a Bride to steam it on the day and Harmony Media for hair & makeup and Bently & Wilson for photography - all is quite cheap although it adds up!

    A great site link here for Vegas Brides etc.. as well!

    Quick question for slot players, anybody seen Aristocrats Butterfly kisses 1cent slot recently? Played it before at PH and Silverton but wasn't at either in April. Going again next week and would like to seek it out!

    Thanks
