The Venetian Resort Invites Guests to Las Vegas for a ‘Year of Celebrations’
In honor of its 20th anniversary, The Venetian Resort kicks off a Year of Celebrations, an invitation to mark any occasion with friends and family at the iconic Las Vegas resort. From a milestone birthday or anniversary, to an over-the-top bachelorette party, The Venetian is providing new options and resources to make planning easier.
To navigate the seemingly endless number of options in Las Vegas, the resort has introduced a dedicated Celebrations Team, specially trained experts who can create the most memorable experiences from start to finish. In addition, online tools and trip guides are available for guests to discover new small-group opportunities, giving travelers more turnkey options for their itineraries.
Since inception, The Venetian was designed to accommodate groups of all sizes. Even with its grand scale, its team of experts can plan a party for 10 just as thoughtfully as 10,000.
“At a destination where our guests expect the world, we believe one of our most valuable services is to provide context – and help curate the experience. This is what makes our Celebrations Team so impactful,” said Marcy Miles, chief marketing officer for The Venetian Resort Las Vegas. “Las Vegas provides infinite possibilities for a celebration vacation. Whether looking for activities for the ultimate family reunion, the best spot for a festive dinner, or the makings of an epic birthday weekend, we lighten the load by providing inspiration and valuable insights so our guests can focus on the fun.”
Some of the most popular moments developed by the Celebrations Team include:
- Bachelor and Bachelorette Parties: From a traditional weekend to a co-ed soiree, The Venetian has guests covered. Several experiences include a bar crawl through The Cocktail Collective venues The Dorsey, Rosina and Electra, and a Bourbon Tasting at Yardbird, paired with a four-course meal. Buddy V’s Ristorante offers tasting menus that were envisioned especially for bachelorette parties. “We found that bachelorette groups sometimes request a lighter meal before a night at the clubs,” said Rebecca Stebbins, director of Celebrations at The Venetian Resort. “Our team has gleaned insights like these while helping to plan these parties.”
- Weddings Redefined: No two love stories are alike, and with the assistance of The Venetian Celebrations Team, each guest is able to create an event that is genuinely their own. Couples receive a stress-free custom itinerary for their wedding. “We can team rehearsal dinners and cocktail receptions with fun activities like poolside yoga or the Ceviche Challenge, a chef-led hands-on cooking demonstration at Chica,” continued Stebbins. “This gives couples the chance to put their own, unique spin on the festivities making for an unforgettable weekend.”
- Birthday Weekend: A birthday comes only once a year, and guests are welcomed to go all-out at The Venetian. The Celebrations Team can help curate an itinerary fit for an epic weekend. “There are so many options at The Venetian, depending on the make-up of the group,” said Stebbins. “For instance, Canyon Ranch Spa has a Celebrations Suite that is the ultimate respite for those looking to relax while spending time together. In contrast, Lagasse’s Stadium has multiple VIP suites for groups to gather and watch a televised sporting event in a way they never have before.” TAO Nightclub has been the city’s “go to” location for milestone birthdays for years, and even offers a complimentary “Turning 21” birthday package for those who inquire in advance.
- Anniversary Getaway: Anniversaries are an opportunity to re-connect. Romance reigns at the resort, and guests can plan anything from a vow renewal on an enchanting gondola, to a delectable dinner in an award-winning restaurant, to a breathtaking helicopter tour of the Las Vegas Strip. Whatever a guest desires, The Venetian can make it a reality. “While anniversary getaways tend to be more couple focused, a recent trend addresses the other side of the coin,” said Stebbins. “Newly separated people are inviting friends along for a Divorce Weekend. In fact, TAO Nightclub and TAO Beach have a special table package catered especially to these groups.”
- Family Reunion: When the time comes to bring the family together, The Venetian Celebrations Team is a great resource. Creating an itinerary fit for all ages can be a challenge, but with an expert working through the details, each guest will walk away feeling the trip was designed just for them. “There are options here that most would not expect,” said Stebbins. “We have had groups host private poker tournaments, shopping excursions, or themed dinners in our private dining rooms.”
