If you’re dreaming of a wedding that’s bright, bold, and full of personality, Whitney & Wes’ wedding at The Doyle is going to be your new obsession! These two are frequent Vegas visitors, so it only made sense for them to bring all their favorite people here for a celebration that blended rustic beauty, Hawaiian traditions, and the kind of downtown energy only Vegas can deliver. And let me tell you, from the moment the day started to the final downtown bridal portraits, it was nonstop joy, color, and love!

All the Bold & Thoughtful Details

This day was so detail-rich, and you know I live for that. From the tropical florals bursting with pinks, corals, and greenery to their casino-inspired stationery complete with playing cards and dice, it was Vegas meets Hawaii in the best way possible. Every little piece told their story: travel lovers, bold personalities, and a deep love for their culture. Even their signage leaned into the fun, “No Ugly Crying” tissues, “Let’s Do This” ceremony signs, playful and heartfelt all at once!

Getting Ready at The Doyle

The morning was all about laughter and laid-back vibes. Whitney looked absolutely radiant in her floral robe while getting her glam done, the room buzzing with excitement. Over in another corner, Wes suited up in a sleek black-on-black look, sharp, timeless, and just a little bit edgy. I love when couples take their time in the getting-ready space at The Doyle; the industrial-meets-cozy interiors make every moment feel intimate while still having that touch of Vegas cool.

Emotional Bride & Groom First Look 

There’s something so grounding about a first look, and Whitney & Wes had one of the sweetest. Tucked outside The Doyle under blooms of bright flowers, they locked eyes and you could literally see the nerves turn into pure excitement. It was emotional but also so them, smiles, a few tears, and a whole lot of soaking it all in before the party officially kicked off!

Ceremony at The Doyle’s Outdoor Space

If you’ve never been to an outdoor ceremony at The Doyle, picture this: vibrant florals framing the altar, disco balls catching the light, and palm trees swaying in the background. Their officiant wove personal touches into the vows, and the Hawaiian lei exchange was such a beautiful nod to their roots. Guests laughed, teared up, and you could just feel the warmth radiating through the entire space.

A Reception Full of Traditions & Surprises

Whitney & Wes didn’t hold back when it came to making their reception unforgettable. From the Chinese Lion Dance to the banzai toast to the money dance, the room was alive with movement, music, and joy. The tropical centerpieces popped against rustic wooden tables, and their neon sign backdrop made for the perfect statement piece. I’m always obsessed when couples infuse their culture into the day, it makes every moment feel that much more meaningful!

Downtown Las Vegas Bridal Portraits

One of my favorite parts of their 8-hour package? It gave us time to sneak off for bridal portraits downtown. Since The Doyle is so close to the heart of the city, we hit a mix of iconic spots and hidden gems: colorful murals, Fremont lights, the Carousel Bar glow, and the “Welcome to Downtown” marquee. Whitney’s gown shimmered under the lights, Wes rocked his maile lei like a boss, and every photo felt like a love letter to Vegas.

Why I Love Photographing Weddings at The Doyle

The Doyle is one of those rare Vegas venues that nails both style and flexibility. The open floor plan, indoor/outdoor flow, and downtown location make it perfect for couples who want the best of both worlds: a space that feels personal but still lets you run wild with creative portraits nearby. Plus, if you book an 8-hour package like Whitney & Wes did, you’ll have time for everything, from a relaxed getting-ready morning to those epic night shots!
