How to Plan Your Neon Museum Wedding
Planning a Neon Museum wedding involves blending that effortlessly cool Vegas energy with your unique love story. Here’s what to consider:
Permits & Reservations
The Neon Museum requires advance reservations for all weddings. Given the venue’s popularity, I recommend you book as early as possible. Additionally, if you plan on having a professional photo session outside of a wedding package, a photography permit is necessary.
Best Time to Get Married Here
Golden hour and twilight ceremonies are chef’s kiss at the Neon Museum. You just can’t beat that evening light combined with the glow of the neon sign that create a vibe that’s both dreamy and electric.
*The Neon Museum is closed during the summer months (June – August) due to excessive heat. With that being said, sunrise weddings are available during that time to accommodate for the heat.
Guest Accommodations
The North Gallery provides twelve benches, accommodating 48-50 guests. If you need additional guests, you can add up to 10 more for $200.
*If you want additional seating or décor, you can arrange rentals through a furniture rental company of your choice. Additional fees for setup and breakdown will apply.
What to Wear?
Honestly, a Neon Museum wedding practically begs for fashion-forward wedding attire. With bold signage, glowing lights, and an editorial vibe, your outfit should feel just as iconic as the venue. Think of it as your red carpet moment in downtown Vegas.
Consider:
Sleek, editorial-style gowns – Clean lines, modern silhouettes, or high slits photograph beautifully against neon backdrops.
Sharp, tailored suits – Bonus points for colorful or velvet textures that pop under flash.
Vintage-inspired looks that nod to Old Vegas – Think 60s cocktail glam, 70s jumpsuits, or Rat Pack energy with a twist.
Statement accessories – Rhinestone gloves, bold earrings, dramatic veils, or a feather clutch. More is more.
