Holden Beach, N.C.: Bob, my husband and I are planning to renew our wedding vows in Las Vegas next September 21. It will be our 40th anniversary and we are hoping to have a fun time with our family and friends. We're not looking for any thing serious; in fact we are considering an Elvis ceremony. About 20 people will be joining us and we'd like to have a cocktail party after the big event. We would also like to get a block of tickets for O and Bette Midler. Since we've never been to Las Vegas, we are at a loss as to where to begin our planning. We would appreciate any advice you could give us.

Thanks,

Pat

Bob Sehlinger: There are so many weddings in LV that most hotels have a dedicated wedding planner/coordinator who can handle all your needs.

Toronto, Ontario: As first time visitors to Vegas this November, we're looking forward to lots of excitement. But can you recommend any quiet/ relaxing activities for couples, away from the hustle and bustle? My boyfriend and I will be participating in the Vegas marathon and will likely be craving some R&R afterwards. Thank you!

Bob Sehlinger: I'd stay outdoors. Try hiking or the scenic drive at Red Rock Canyon, Mountain Biking in Cottonwood Valley. Visiting the pine forests of the Spring Mountains (45 minute drive) or renting a houseboat on Lake Mead also come to mind.

Barre, Vt.: I will be in Vegas for 4 days beginning Oct.25. Any pointers on which Cirque show to see? Best price? Should we go on a weeknight?

Bob Sehlinger: Mystere is my all time favorite Cirque show, followed by LOVE, Ka, Zumanity, and O. Weeknights are better.
