Your Go-To Planner for Every Occasion
Meet Bri Absher, the Las Vegas-based planner behind our most unforgettable celebrations. Bri built her reputation coordinating bridal showers, vow renewals, corporate events, and milestone parties across Las Vegas long before she ever boarded a helicopter — she's the go-to planner locals trust for any occasion, big or small.
That same all-occasion expertise is exactly why New York couples trust Bri to plan their Las Vegas helicopter weddings from a thousand miles away: she knows every vendor, venue, and logistical detail this city has to offer, and she brings that local mastery to every ceremony she designs for us.

Is a helicopter wedding safe?
Yes. Every flight is flown by an FAA certified pilot, and the aircraft and operation are fully licensed and insured.

A licensed wedding officiant is included with every package, so you can exchange legally binding vows in the air without arranging your own.
