Marriage Matters

Can you feel it? Love is in the air in Vegas at this time of year, from marriage proposals to the wedding ceremonies themselves. We are, after all, the Wedding Capital of the World, and no city does this type of thing better than Sin City. This week’s issue of Las Vegas Magazine is geared toward those couples who have chosen our city for their special day—and the honeymoons!

Let’s start with those ceremonies. We’ve lined up not one but two stories in this week’s issue to give you an idea of the mind-boggling array of choices available to you. We start with the options at all of the Caesars Entertainment properties from Flamingo and Caesars Palace to Paris Las Vegas and Planet Hollywood (“Wedding Fantasies Fulfilled,” p. 12). Then we take you on a tour of the possibilities across the rest of the city (“Tie the Knot,” p. 34).

Once the “I Do’s” have been said, it’s time to enjoy your married life. May we suggest:

• For dinner and some drinks, head to Bottled Blonde Las Vegas at Horseshoe Las Vegas, a multilevel hot spot that serves up amazing food and cocktails, not to mention plenty of party atmosphere, complete with live music (“Any Time Is the Right Time,” p. 30).

• For a show (that fits right into this week’s wedding theme), you’ll want to get tickets to New Kids on the Block at Park MGM, which recently said “I Do!” to a long-term commitment to our city for its The Right Stuff residency (“Putting a Ring on It,” p. 32).

• If you’re both sports fans and sun worshipers, it doesn’t get better than the new Tailgate Beach Club at Mandalay Bay, where sports viewing is the order of the day (“Sports Fun Under the Sun,” p. 24).

All our best in your wedded future!

You’ll want to get those reservations in early for chef-led dinners, global bar takeovers, wine tastings, afternoon teas and nightlife-infused dining opportunities.

A Real Bombshell

An iconic figure in a world-famous photo now has a name, thanks to the relentless research of this Las Vegas historian

Atomic Museum Vegas offers a deep dive into this part of Vegas’ storied history, and last year it unveiled a new exhibit centered around Anna Lee Mahoney, more famously known as Miss Atomic Bomb, whose likeness was widely recognizable but whose identity remained anonymous until historian Robert Friedrichs solved the mystery.

What prompted your 25-year-long search for Miss Atomic Bomb’s true identity?

When they were building the museum, they talked about using that photo for marketing purposes. I thought it would really be neat if she were still alive and we were able to contact her, have her come to the opening and let her see how important that photo has been for the development of Las Vegas. Unfortunately … she had passed away before that decision was made. So it’s not 25 years (gone to) waste, but it’s nice to have the recognition finally documented and out there.

Why is it so important that this figure has a name?

I thought that her family needed to know. Unfortunately, she had no children. She was married, but her husband had passed away a few years before her. In doing the research, trying to track her down, we were looking at combinations of names … We lucked out when we were working with a combination and found a cousin’s daughter. The mother and the daughter are still

alive, and I had included the pictures in the letter that I sent, explaining the fact that we were trying to get an identification on her … She unfortunately didn’t have any (pictures) and I asked her, what was her maiden name? That’s when everything broke loose. That’s when we got her birth certificate, we got her Social Security record, and on the Social Security record, another name associated with that number was Lee Merlin (her stage name).

Can you recall seeing Miss Atomic Bomb used widespread, or was this one marketing instance that just took off?

Actually, they didn’t use that photo in the first press release. They used a different one, and it was a small picture in one newspaper. Then they went out with this one, and that’s the one the public went crazy over ... And the other issue is that this is such a controversial picture. People have written articles on it and said that she was nude, except for the mushroom cloud. You can see the swimsuit, but people’s imagination just ran with it, and that is considered one of the 100 best photos ever taken.

After receiving additional pictures of Lee Merlin from Don English, who took the photo, how did you go about face-matching her appearances around Las Vegas?

UNLV Special Collections. They’d bring out the boxes, and I’d just go through them and they’d copy anything I want-

ed. And so that’s where I first learned about the stage names. That really made me stop and think, “Okay, I see a name here. It’s a stage name. It looks too English.” That’s when I started looking at alternatives and trying to sort through that maze. And that’s why I was only 85% sure until I actually saw that Social Security record where she had her married name, her maiden name, and Lee Merlin in the middle.

Did you release her maiden name or her married name?

Her maiden name. And she had moved back to New York after leaving (Las Vegas). And that’s where she met her husband, who was a horn player. I think he was a trumpet (player) in various bands, and they moved to Hawaii. They lived there for many years and he had his own business. When he passed away, she sold the business, sold the house they were in, if they owned it, and then she moved back to Pennsylvania for a short time then moved out to Santa Cruz.

Before we leave, a question that’s really been on our minds: Was there a sort of fear of something going awry at the Nuclear Test Site, since residents had to wear dog tags with their blood type on them and whatnot?

It wasn’t fear. The average person looked at it as helping Las Vegas grow. And they wouldn’t (detonate) it if the wind was blowing this way. That was the agreement, it would go to the lowest population areas to the East and North. So that was a strategic decision that the minimum number of people could potentially be exposed at any given time. –Em Jurbala

Shaking Up the Competition

Bartenders go head-to-head to create the best martini

Tins will clink, alcohol will flow, garnishes will be speared and creativity is on display as top bartenders compete in Martini Masters on June 19 from 8-10 p.m. inside the speakeasy at Caspian’s Rock & Roe And you can be right in the middle of it all, as the competition takes place in front of the crowd.

In honor of National Martini Day, Caspian’s has set up a bracket-style competition with eight Vegas bartenders who will create up to three martinis that

show off their signature style. Each round should last about eight minutes, and judging takes place after each round. First up is the best espresso martini, then a briny martini, and the final round is a martini of each bartender’s choice, but it must include the secret ingredient. The winner will be awarded $2,500!

Guests get to witness all the tin-tossing, spirit-shaking fun while the DJ will keep the vibes hyped. When the competition ends around 10:30 p.m., the night’s

headlining band takes the stage and Caspian’s offers guests classic martini cocktails for just $20 each throughout the night.

It’s a fun party combined with behindthe-scenes vibes where you get to see how Vegas bartenders put their creativity and skills to the test behind the bar. It’s a look into Vegas few ever get. Take full advantage! –Kiko Miyasato

Sports Fun Under the Sun

New dayclub is the summer hot spot to catch all the games

If you partied at Daylight Beach Club in past seasons then you know where this new dayclub resides, but don’t expect the old decor, vibes and programming. While the physical space is the same, the dayclub went through a complete renovation and put sports front and center. Welcome to Tailgate Beach Club, one of the city’s newest dayclubs and hot spot for all things sports from March Madness to Super Bowl Sunday. Fans now have a Strip hot spot to chill poolside while cheering on their

fave team—Tailgate Beach Club was built around optimal viewing of any game, be it soccer, football, basketball or golf. Across the 50,000 square feet of pool deck, more than 125 feet of LED screens fill the space, allowing for prime views no matter where you’re chilling. One giant pool sits in the middle of all the action and faces a huge stage, built for live performances throughout the summer.

Two premium bungalows with their own private dipping pools are some

of the biggest at any pool club and are situated on an elevated platform allowing for great views of the entire dayclub. More than two dozen luxury cabanas and tons of daybeds with umbrellas for shade round out the rest of the options.

Opened in early May, sports stars and reality TV favorites turned out to celebrate Tailgate Beach Club including pro skater Tony Hawk, San Francisco 49ers players like George Kittle and Nick Bosa, and Los Angeles Rams play-

The Omega Mart world inspires guest service associate

San Francisco native Federico Flores has worked for Disneyland, Universal Studios, Cirque du Soleil and various Las Vegas attractions like SlotZilla and FLY LINQ Zipline, in roles that include dancing, acting, management and creative.

But what has been his favorite role? “This, this is my favorite job out of all the jobs I’ve had.” Wow! Flores is the guest service associate at Omega Mart at AREA15.

“It’s about the connection; when you are connecting one on one with people it’s much more powerful,” he said.

He joined Meow Wolf, the artist collective that built Omega Mart, almost four years ago, and his job is to “connect the guest to the Meow Wolf experience, the artists and the deep narrative that is going on at (Omega Mart),” Flores said. “I elevate the experience.” He’s elevated it so much that he has also become the game master, a position that went viral a few years ago. “I deepen the narrative and deepen the connection to the artists, the art and this experience as a whole.”

“A big part of the Meow Wolf philosophy is inspiring creativity and venturing out into the world to inspire other people, and I’ve taken that to heart,” he said. “So when people come in and I see that spark or interest, I take that and move them through the experience that allows them to foster their creativity. So, hopefully, by the time they leave here they’ve seen some amazing art and some crazy narratives and they think, ‘How can I be creative?’” –Kiko Miyasato

Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas specializes in the full flavors of Bavarian cuisine

I admit to being a little confused by German. Just when I think I’ve figured it out, then I haven’t. If you’re like that, lucky you, because at Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas that confusion won’t apply (’cause it’s translated on the menu!).

The experience at Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas is unlike any other in Las Vegas, with an exterior that is an exact replica of the original Hofbräuhaus in Munich, with window boxes, dormers and more. Inside, the beer hall has archways and painted ceilings, plus long tables and benches. It screams authentic! A fountain, patio seating and trees set the scene in the indoor biergarten. Speaking of authentic, get yourself a beer. Hofbräuhaus brews six beers in Munich that are imported to Vegas—three classics that are available

year-round and three specialty beers, including the HB Dunkel Weizen, a dark wheat beer. Each beer has suggested pairing for your food. For example, order a stein of HB Original lager and pair it with salads, roasted pork and light foods. The malty HB Dunkel may go better with a sausage platter.

Once you’ve got that beverage, get an appetizer or two. The Kartoffelpuffer is fried potato cakes with salmon. Great sharing dishes include the cheese plate with crackers, buttered rye bread and chives or the Brotzeiteller, which brings in the meats—cold cuts and cold roast pork with accompaniments of cheese, rye bread, gherkins and house-made mustard. Pretzels seem particularly German, and you can get them a few different ways and sizes, including a giant one with cheeses and mustards.

For your mains, there are plenty of choices, like Jägerschnitzel, a traditional German breaded pork cutlet covered in mushroom sauce. There are several bread pork cutlets on the menu, each with different sides and presentation, like the Schnitzel Weiner Art, a pork cutlet with cranberries and house-made Bavarian potato salad (which is a whole different ballgame than American-style potato salad). You can get it in a pork sausage sandwich, which is like a hot

dog but served on French bread with sauerkraut and onion mustard. The huge chicken breast sandwich sees the schnitzel hanging over a kaiser roll.

There’s a whole section of the menu devoted to sausage, too, with chicken,

pork, veal and white (veal and pork mixed), plus currywurst, which is sliced Krainer sausage (you’ll find cheese in these) in a curry sauce, and even a grilled sausage loaf.

Vegans and vegetarians can find schnitzel, frankfurters and hunter-style meatballs, while kids can get schnitzel fingers, so no one’s getting left out. Apple strudel with warm vanilla sauce or decadent Black Forest cake will finish the meal off deliciously.

Vatertag at Hofbräuhaus

If D ad wants German food and/or beer on Father’s Day, he’s in luck! Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas is serving a special Father’s Day (Vatertag) menu, with such items as Bayerische Gulaschsuppe (Bavarian goulash); the HB smokehouse platter with sausage, pork loin and sauerkraut; and apple bread pudding with ice cream. Reservations are suggested.

Bottled Blonde Las Vegas offers nightlife fun (and brunch!)

If you’ve walked along the Strip right in front of Horseshoe Las Vegas, then you’ve heard the party happening at Bottled Blonde Las Vegas—it’s hard to miss. The multistory venue is packed

with live music and killer food, and it’s all waiting for visitors, day or night.

First up, brunch! Saturday and Sunday brings cool weekend vibes, combining live music with scrumptious

bites. Cruise a menu with standout dishes like chicken and waffles, chilaquiles, breakfast burgers and corned beef hash. Need a little hair of the dog? They gotcha! Sip on bottomless mimosas or an eye-opening michelada with Modelo Negra and Bloody Mary mix; or go classic with a cup of Joe, bottomless for just six

bucks. And while you’re ripping into that fat, perfectfor-your-hangover burger, you’ll be entertained with live musical acts playing everything from classic rock to contemporary.

When daytime vibes start winding down and the sun begins to set, Bottled Blonde Las Vegas begins to transition into party mode

socialize without having to shout over the music.

The party is paired with fun, large-format cocktails. Gather the group around the Strawberry Pump— Tito’s vodka, strawberry syrup, lemon and lemonade—a cute, tabletop version of a gas pump where you “pump” the cocktail out through the nozzle into about five glasses. Or order everyone in the group the handheld, adult version of a childhood favorite, Capri Sun, here called the Capri Sin, served with that classic pouch and straw, made with blanco tequila, Aperol, lemonade, prickly pear syrup and lemon juice. You can order specialty cocktails for individual consumption or get any of them in a tower to serve the whole group.

with the opening of its rooftop space. It’s all about an open-air, under-thestars party with stunning views of the Strip—this all combines for a truly hot spot for some nightlife fun. Dancefloor space replaces table-and-chair setups, and the DJ soundtracks it all. It’s a party you can feel from down on the

sidewalk, so make your way up if you’re 21+. It’s a great alternative to those long lines, high prices and shoulder-to-shoulder business at nightclubs. You can dance till you sweat or sit and enjoy the music and

Continue to fuel the party with food, all elevated bar eats that are as visually tempting as they are tasty. Dig into some faves like tuna tacos with marinated ahi tuna, ginger vinaigrette, avocado, green onions, tabiko and scallions, wagyu truffle burger with onion jam and truffle mayo, the Reuben, Philly cheesesteak and a health-kick dish, the protein bowl with chicken, rice, feta, romaine, cucumbers, garbanzo beans and oregano vinaigrette. Pizza (which has been said to rival classic New York-style), desserts, salads and shareables round out the menu.

Whatever night you decide to hit up Bottled Blonde Las Vegas, the party is waiting for you. It’s one of the only spots along the Strip that offers music every day of the week. Live music lovers can chill on the main floor and rock out every day, and the hardcore partiers can head to the rooftop for high-energy DJ sets that go really, really late into the night Thursday through Saturday. Whatever your vibe or your craving, this place hits the spot.

the Block says yes to Vegas, and fans say it right back

New Kids on the Block announced its 2026 Las Vegas extended residency dates last fall with a mock wedding ceremony at the Little White Wedding Chapel, vows and all. If this is what a long-term Vegas

commitment looks like, the fans are absolutely here for it.

And so are the numbers. Donnie Wahlberg, Danny Wood, Jon Knight, Jordan Knight and Joey McIntyre set up shop at Dolby Live at Park MGM with The Right Stuff in 2025, and it has grown into a fullblown love affair: 24 performances total this year, running June 19 through July 4 and again Oct. 2–17.

The inaugural residency ran for 16 shows, and due to overwhelming demand from their fans, affectionately known as Blockheads, the

group had no choice but to extend the run. Who can say no to thousands of screaming and gyrating fans who still know every word of “Step by Step,” “Hangin’ Tough” and “You Got It (The Right Stuff)”—and aren’t shy about showing it?

“What we’ve built here in Vegas, together with our incredible Blockheads, feels truly magical,” Wahlberg said during the extension announcement.

Dolby Live at Park MGM is one of the best rooms in a city full of worldclass venues, intimate enough to

make a sizable arena feel personal, with state-of-the-art production that can do things most arenas only dream about. Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, Usher and Aerosmith have all called it home. NKOTB didn’t just book a venue; it chose a partner worthy of what it’s trying to build.

The Right Stuff was designed from the ground up for this room. “The energy in that room each night—the lights, the lasers, flying up to the balcony to see all our Blockheads dancing and singing along—is so far beyond anything we’ve ever done

before,” Wahlberg said.

That tracks, if you know anything about NKOTB’s relationship with its fanbase. These are the guys who ran a fan club with more than 200,000 members and a hotline fielding 100,000 calls a week at their peak— in the early ’90s, before the internet made that kind of fan access look easy. The group has sold more than 80 million records worldwide. That DNA runs all the way through this residency, right down to the meetand-greets held on the stage itself, the backstage tours and the preshow

VIP lounges. Blockheads have always gone above and beyond for these five, and NKOTB goes above and beyond right back.

Add the band’s latest album, Still Kids, released in May 2024 and its first new music in more than a decade, and the picture is complete: a group fully committed, putting in the work and building something that can only be experienced here.

So, yes, they married Vegas. And if the sold-out nights and steadily growing run are any indication, it’s a very happy union.

There’s no end

to wedding options in Las Vegas

If you’re planning a ceremony in Las Vegas, great news! There are a dizzying array of packages available for any occasion. Whether traditional, unique, weird or even scary, there’s a wedding for you.

At the Chapel of Crystals at Westgate Las Vegas,

you can customize your ceremony depending on your budget and group size. The property has all the services and options you want—gowns, tuxedo rentals, handcrafted bridal bouquets, hair, makeup, professional photography, wedding rings, bridal acces-

Resorts World Las Vegas

sories and more.

If you want a truly unique wedding, Omega Mart by Meow Wolf at AREA15 offers ceremony locations throughout the surreal grocery store experience, including an officiant, professional photographer, admission for the wedding couple and luxury vehicle pickup from your hotel.

Golden Nugget offers

several tiers depending on budget and group size. You can enjoy a 30-minute ceremony for $399 (includes the groom’s boutonniere, a three-rose bridal bouquet and eight photo prints) or go really big with the “Poolside Paradise” package, complete with a bottle of champagne, Golden Nugget flutes, a Rush Tower suite for two nights and a live

streaming webcast of your ceremony for $2,850.

At Resorts World Las Vegas, offerings include the Iris Wedding package (starting at $195 per person) that includes the ceremony itself, a cocktail reception with three tray-passed hors d’oeuvres and a threehour premium bar, and a three-course plated dinner with appetizer, entrée and two-tier wedding cake for up to 50 guests.

Over at Circa Resort & Casino, wedding package options include nuptials at Vue Bar balcony, where you get the bright lights of Fremont Street Experience for an unforgettable backdrop. This is for both intimate and larger weddings—book the balcony (maximum of 10 people) or the indoor bar area (for up to 50 people), beginning at $3,000. Or have your ceremony 60 stories up at Legacy Club, where options include food and beverage (starting at $5,000 for a minimum of 50 people) or catering (starting at $8,000 for a minimum of 50 people).

Also consider the properties of MGM Resorts International, where you can say “I do” in either a traditional chapel, in front of a leopard shark at the Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay or facing the Fountains of Bellagio at Terraza di Sogno, a private terrace that accommodates up to 40 friends and family.

If you’re more the outdoorsy type, consider

the “Desert Enchantment” package from Maverick Helicopters, where you begin by flying over Red Rock Canyon to a private vista where your nuptials will take place, a panoramic overlook 2,900 feet over the city. You and your wedding party will enjoy a champagne toast, beverages and photo opportunities galore.

How about a scary wedding? At Universal Horror Unleashed at AREA15, you can get married by a costumed officiant (with a costumed witness!), all capped by a champagne toast!

Some restaurants across the Las Vegas Strip have a secret: From steak and sushi to Italian and American,

the cuisines run the gamut, but what they all have in common is a cool factor—they each offer a hipster hidden

lounge where the art of cocktailing is thriving, and the ambience and décor is wonderfully bougie. Make a

and Bugsy & Meyer’s Steakhouse at Flamingo—dig into the delicious dishes, but when done ask the hostess

or your server to point you in the direction of the hidden lounge and begin your second journey.

Don’t sleep on the classic Italian American eats at Luchini and the East Coast-style pizza by the slice at the adjacent pizza shop, both reminiscent of hot spots in New Jersey and New York. But in the sit-down space of the pizza shop you’ll spot vending machines … and one of them opens to reveal the entrance to the speakeasy, Chez Bippy. The sexy, very intimate space is adorned with plush velvets, lowlighting and a craft cocktail program that celebrates Italian flavors. Besides the popular Prima Donna, don’t miss the delicious coffee-inspired Bella Notte and the zeroproof cocktails.

Flamingo, 702.733.3111

This classic steakhouse inspired by mobsters Bugsy Siegel and Meyer Lansky is a throwback to classic Las Vegas and Miami vibes with décor decked out in flamingos and foliage. The entrance to the speakeasy, The Count Room, can be accessed from the casino floor; look for the kitschy door to Bugsy’s office, or enter through the restaurant (just ask a hostess). Inside the speakeasy, settle in for an impressive cocktail program and an even more impressive OldFashioned menu. The Japanese Old-Fashioned is the smoothest, the Kentucky Old-Fashioned is the sweetest, the Mexican is smoky, and the Caribbean has deep notes of vanilla and caramel.

The Venetian Resort, 702.414.3474

By day, guests can sit at Nomikai’s sushi bar, but when the sun sets, look for the door to the left and a small hostess stand. You’ll need to make a reservation for Nomikai’s speakeasy, but it’s so worth checking out. Besides wickedly good cocktails with Japanese influences and ingredients, you can order sushi here, too. With all the rage of espresso martinis, Nomikai puts its delicious spin on the classic with the Ube Espresso Martini (it’s to die for!) and the twist on the margarita, the Salted Plum Air Margarita with Olmeca Altos blanco, Cointreau, umeshu, lime, plum and Yukari Shiso salt foam.

Planet Hollywood, 702.785.5551

Caramella has quickly become a favorite among Vegas insiders for its delicious Italian eats, the expansive patio overlooking the Strip, its weekend brunch and the cocktail specials at the front lounge. But behind the candy shop that’ll you’ll spot before you hit the main space of the restaurant, you’ll notice one of the walls opens to reveal a hidden lounge, styled in a funky and opulent ’70s style. The cocktails are a treat in mixology, like the Vice & Virtue and the Set Me Fredo with frozen Gran Coramino reposado, cola, Angostura bitters and a pistachio gelato.

Nobu Villa is the 10,300-square-foot crowning jewel of boutique Nobu Hotel at Caesars Palace

FLAWLESS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM, wall to wall and indoors to outdoors, the Japanese-inspired Nobu Villa exceeds all expectations of luxury living. With 5,600 square feet of indoor space— three bedrooms and four baths, common areas consisting of a media room, a sitting room, a formal dining room, a game space with pool table and an omakase sushi bar for private dining— the Rockwell Group-designed rooftop villa is only reached by private elevator. The 4,700-square-foot terrace, accessible through three different points from the villa, affords breathtaking views of the city lights up and down Las Vegas Boulevard and beyond. Outdoor living is easy with two shaded sitting-room spaces, daybeds and lounge chairs, with a hot tub inspired by a Japanese onsen tucked into a nook for more privacy.

Entertaining at Nobu Villa is divine, with an assortment of settings to choose from. With the 24-hour butler service, butler’s kitchen and pantry, guests are waited on hand and foot. Those who don’t want to dine downstairs at the famed Nobu restaurant can dine in the villa, where sushi chefs are able to whip up any dish from the Nobu menu. Guests can also celebrate on the terrace: The outdoor kitchen and bar—complete with robatayaki grill—make it the perfect spot for a party. Relaxation comes easy in the two outdoor covered living spaces, complete with sofas, lounge chairs, ceiling fans, flat screen TVs and adjustable lighting.

Throughout the entire villa, Japanese-inspired art pieces hold the gaze of guests, including an eight-panel art installation in the entry hall by Brooklyn artist Jill Hotchkiss. Each of the delicate scenes are sandblasted into wood and depicts a Japanese landscape outlined in gold paint. The two guest rooms, each with its own private bath and vanity, get lush touches of custom hand-painted wallpaper by De Gournay, with pastoral scenes including cherry blossoms and other foliage.

The master bedroom celebrates the tranquil side of the Nobu lifestyle while incorporating the most lavish features. The master suite comes with an en suite massage room, and French doors lead out to the expansive terrace with the Zen garden and hot tub. Adjacent is the master bath, reminiscent of a private spa with giant soaking tub, oversized shower, double vanity, sauna room and Japanese-style daybed.

Gaming Tips

Set a budget for gaming, and be comfortable if you lose that amount.

One of the easiest bets to place is the over/ under, where you bet on how many total points are scored in a game.

Don’t feel you need to spend your entire budget on one slot or bet. Move around for maximum playing fun.

Ante Up!
