My husband and I want to go with another couple to Vegas so that she can get married and we can renew our vows. We got married in Vegas 5 years ago. We want to stay on the strip, like at ceasers or Harrahs. When is the best time for flights and hotel deals?
Now is a good time to make reservations. Between now and Christmas and middle of January till end of March is a good time to get deals to Vegas. Always remember to check the Convention Center calendar before booking your flight to make sure there are no major events in town.

Vegas baby!
no more off season in this town. the conventions are all year long and no slow period.
The days leading up to Christmas offer tremendous value, so if you can go this month, have at it. August is also a slow month thanks to the heat. Keep in mind that a large convention (20,000+ attendees) can cause room rates to jump, so it’s always best to check the convention calendar. Here’s a link which shows dates and approximate sizes of the conventions:

Summer time is the best time, but that’s also when it’s hot. Rates are usually lower in places like that (i.e., Phoenix). Otherwise, late winter early spring. Just start planning your trip and picking some dates out and pretend to make a hotel reservation – you’ll see when the rates go up and down too. Flights are best when you book early – doesn’t really matter on the season if you book early enough. But if you’re flying from a major city to Vegas, you’ll probably get a good deal anyway.
