Happy Couples on WeddingWire Love Keep Memory Alive Event Center

At the Keep Memory Alive Event Center, it has been our privilege to host couples on their most important day. As a wedding destination city, over 10,000 marriages are performed in Las Vegas each month. Engaged couples from all over the world choose Las Vegas as the place to get married.

When planning a wedding, it can be challenging to find the right vendors. You want to find the best companies for invitations, flowers, catering, and much more. Since 2007, WeddingWire.com has helped millions of engaged couples plan their weddings with comprehensive directories and insightful reviews.

While we would love to tell you ourselves how extraordinary a wedding in the Frank Gehry designed Keep Memory Alive Event Center under the 199 windows of our undulating stainless steel canopy would be, we figured you would appreciate hearing from the couples who love us on WeddingWire.com instead.

Iconic Location

As one of the most visually unique buildings in Las Vegas, we make quite an impression on engaged couples. Bride Kate from Boston exclaimed, “The Frank Gehry designed building was breathtaking and certainly impressed all of our guests. People are still talking about our awesome venue! The white walled room was able to be transformed quickly into a modern fairytale. It was unbelievable!” Emma concurred, saying, “KMA is such a beautiful venue and a unique one at that… It is absolutely breathtaking inside and out.”

Another bride loved the benefits of getting married at an off-strip venue, “This is a hidden gem in Las Vegas! I searched high and low for the perfect spot to get married and I looked at EVERY venue in Las Vegas. I really didn’t want my guests to have to go through a smoky casino or hotel, and I looked at all country clubs and off-strip venues in the area. None had to offer as much as the KMA Event Center.”

Amazing Food and Service

Our staff is dedicated to making the event memorable for the happy couple and their family. One bride shared her experience, “Everything about this venue was amazing from the service, food, beverage, linens, china, to the architecture.” Another happy guest stated, “The staff was extremely accommodating and dedicated to making my day special. From the gorgeous china, glassware and decor… to the unparalleled food and beverage… we were completely overwhelmed!!”

Gina thanked the staff by saying, “David Watts, who was our Sales Director, was fabulous! He really cared about us and our wedding, and any time there was an issue or a hiccup… I knew that David really cared and would work hard to make me happy – Which he totally did!”
