If you’re headed to Las Vegas and want to celebrate your love with something truly unique, the “Goth Wedding or Vow Renewal at Vegas Sign with Props and Photos” offers an unforgettable experience. For $144.50 per person, you get a 45-minute ceremony—perfectly suited for couples seeking a dramatic, intimate event with a gothic flair. Held at the world-famous Las Vegas Sign, the tour combines spooky props, poetic vows, and a touch of dark elegance that sets it apart from traditional wedding packages.
What makes this experience stand out? First, the customizable gothic props and accessories add a personal, theatrical touch that’s perfect for lovers of moody aesthetics. Second, the professional photography—including 10 candid digital photos and unlimited filming—ensures you’ll leave with plenty of visual keepsakes. We love how flexible the setup is, allowing for unlimited guests, so your loved ones can witness your special moment without extra costs.
A key consideration is that this isn’t a legal wedding; you’ll need to obtain a marriage license from the Clark County Marriage Bureau separately if you’re planning a legal ceremony. Also, the ceremony’s romantic and gothic tone might not be appealing if you prefer a more traditional or lighthearted celebration. This experience is ideal for couples craving something personal, dark, and memorable, or for those renewing vows in a style that truly reflects their personalities.
If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind, visually stunning ceremony with a Gothic twist at a Las Vegas icon, this tour offers remarkable value and a chance to create lasting memories in a setting that feels like a fairy tale—only darker and more poetic.

Starting Point and First Impressions
The tour begins at the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Sign, the city’s most photographed icon. Meeting your officiant here makes for a picture-perfect start—think of it as the backdrop for a love story with a dark edge. You’re encouraged to come dressed for the occasion or borrow gothic-themed props from the collection, which means you can easily match the mood, whether it’s moody, romantic, or theatrical.
The setting itself is one of Vegas’s most recognizable landmarks, and it lends an undeniable sense of occasion. The fact that the ceremony takes place on the shadowy north side of the sign adds to the gothic atmosphere, creating a perfect contrast between the bright neon and the dark, poetic theme.
The Ceremony: Poetic, Personal, and Dramatic
Your officiant guides you through a gothic-inspired ceremony that features moody poetry, vows, and a handfasting ritual—a traditional symbol of binding love. We loved the way the ceremony combines sincerity with theatrical flair, making it distinctly different from conventional weddings. The poetic language, combined with the dark ambiance, elevates the moment into something almost fairy-tale-like, but with a gothic twist.
The props and accessories help set the scene—think vintage-looking quill pens, dark-colored ribbons, or other gothic adornments. If you want, you can come dressed for the occasion or borrow from the collection, making the experience more immersive.
Recording and Photography
One of the highlights is the phone stand provided for recording. This allows you to capture the vows and the atmosphere without needing a photographer—though you’re also welcome to hire the included professional photographer, who takes 10 candid digital photos. The fact that you can take unlimited photos and videos on your own means you’ll have plenty of material to remember your darkly romantic moment.
The First Dance and Keepsakes
After sealing your vows, you can enjoy a dramatic first dance to a song of your choice—just let the team know in advance. This adds a lovely personal touch, making the ceremony feel even more special. The officiant then signs your ceremonial certificate with a quill-style pen, snapping more photos to capture the final moments of your vow renewal.

Ending on a High Note
The experience wraps up with some final words from your officiant, who hands over keepsake souvenirs—small tokens of the gothic love ceremony—and sends you back into the Vegas night, where endless adventures await. The entire process takes about 45 minutes, making it a perfect short-but-sweet way to mark a milestone or just indulge in a bit of dark romance.
What’s Included & What’s Not

The package includes the gothic props and accessories, a phone stand, and a professional photographer who provides 10 candid digital photos. You’re free to take as many photos or videos as you like, making this a highly flexible experience. Best of all, guests are free—so friends or family can witness your vow renewal without any extra charge.
However, it’s vital to note that marriage licenses are not included. If you want a legal wedding, you’ll need to obtain a license beforehand from the Clark County Marriage Bureau. The cost of the license is not part of this package, but it’s a necessary step if legality is your goal.
Regarding gratuities, a $60 tip for the officiant is customary but not required—your personal experience and satisfaction will say a lot about whether you choose to tip.
Practical Tips for Your Gothic Vegas Ceremony
- Dress for the occasion: While you can borrow props, dressing in goth or Victorian-inspired attire can enhance the thematic feel.

- Plan your timing: The ceremony lasts about 45 minutes, so schedule accordingly, especially if you want to take photos or record videos.
