erikalynn48 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Posted October 23, 2005 HelloI am getting married in Vegas this July 22nd. We are having about 75 guests join us from WI. The wedding is at the Venetian - and is all booked. I am a newbie at all of this and was wondering how far in advance or not far in advance should you start to use Priceline or Hotwire? It seems everyone only uses it for trips coming up in the next month or so. However, from what I have read the Venetian is the only 5* on the strip. Is this a pretty established thing? If I went ahead and just tried for a 5* on the strip - I will get the Venetian? We are trying to do things cheaply and if we can get a good deal on hotel rooms it would be great. And it would be even better if we could book rooms this far in advance, but I have a feeling we will have to wait a while to get a good deal via Priceline or Hotwire. Any advice is appreciated!
thereuare Posted October 23, 2005 Report Posted October 23, 2005 Welcome to BetterBidding!What are teh actual dates of your stay? Are you looking for rooms just for yourself or for all the guests?The Venetian has been the only 5* hotel reported so far in this area, but new hotels can be added at any time and other hotels could be upgraded... thus making this no longer the only 5* hotel reported in this area.

erikalynn48 Posted October 23, 2005 Author Report Posted October 23, 2005 We will be staying there June 20-26th. I am not going to book rooms for all my guests, but for surely want to help my wedding party and parents out in finding a good deal. They may be staying different dates. I think once we found a good deal we'd give them a call and walk through the process over the phone - or we might just go ahead and book them ourselves.

dahammer Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 what is your maximum price per night?using the Travel Links to Help Support BetterBidding, the Bellagio has room rates at $199. You can also use the Las Vegas Checker above. NYNY is also available for $100 for the first three days/$180 for the weekend/$110 for the final two days.
erikalynn48 Posted October 25, 2005 Author Report Posted October 25, 2005 We are looking to stay at the Venetian, since that is where the wedding is at for at least the 20th-22nd. Our max for those nights is about $150.
bbbb Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 I would book a back up room and low ball this for a while. Hotwire does not have any inventory for the Venetian at this time and my guess would be that PL won't either.
