If you’re hosting a fabulous holiday bash but want to stay within or under your budget this year our party planning experts at M are here to help you. Our Catering Manager Tina Randall offers a few key tips to keep in mind when party planning. Trust us she knows it all, after all, planning memorable events are all in a day’s work for her.
- Saturdays tend to be the most popular day. Try booking your party on a Friday or even better, Monday-Thursday.
- Select a venue that provides some type of holiday décor; decorations can add up quickly.
- Depending on the menu for your guests, sometimes plated dinners are more cost effective in a banquet setting than a buffet.
- Choose a venue that doesn’t charge a room rental fee and won’t charge for power usage for your DJ.
- Go for a venue that does not charge extra for tables, chairs, linens, dance floor, etc. The less extras that are added to the price, the lower you can keep your budget.
- Ask about discounted room rates for your guests. When booking an event, resorts are usually willing to work with you to accommodate guests overnight.
- Choose a venue with access to an outdoor area so your guests don’t have to leave your party to smoke in a casino or other designated areas.
- Ask for a quote with all taxes, gratuities and additional fees included so you can anticipate the grand total of the event.
- If you have a specific budget, don’t be afraid to ask what can be afforded within the limits of your budget. Event planners are there to help you stay within the means for your party.
The best part of all is that these tips are things we offer to our guests who are planning an event at M. If we’ve piqued your interest, take a look at the different venues we have to host your holiday party. Tina, or one of our other catering Team Members would be happy to assist with your holiday or special event. You can contact our catering department by emailing catering@theMresort.com.
So, here’s another one for you – in-house A/V. Okay, like we said, they’re not the most glamorous of things. When it comes to planning an event here at M though, like your 
Those third parties bring us to our second point. When you’re planning your event and while your event is actually underway, do you want to rely on a third party? You’re already relying on the property where your event is being held so why throw someone else into the mix? When things go wrong, is the property going to pass the proverbial buck? “Sorry, that isn’t our equipment so you’ll have to take this up with them.” With an in-house A/V department added to the already extensive meeting, 
Your event is important to you, to your family, your friends, your business and more. We know that and more importantly, we care about that. So remember when you’re making choices about where to stay, where to play and where to have your event, those little and perhaps no so glamorous things can make a big difference.
We probably shouldn’t put this one up since you can’t see it anymore, but it was just too cool not to. Our Dragon & Lion Dance in celebration of Chinese New Year was spectacular! There are videos and more pics available on our

Hmmm, what to enjoy out on the terrace? How about some of the amazing cocktails Veloce is offering for Happy Hour in their bar & lounge? Red Sangria, Peach White Sangria and Rocks Margaritas with a superb selection of top-shelf tequilas for just $5 are all excellent choices.
Back to those details. When we have 
And when you’re in those meetings? Let’s face it, meeting rooms can be a bit dull at times, but like the rest of M, we did our best to incorporate some amazing fixtures and fittings that add a little extra something.
Okay, so more décor, but you have to admit this is cool. These backlit, woven-metal walls can be found outside

The obelisk out by the porte cochere is something you should take a gander at. It’s made of bronze and kind of resembles a gun sight. If you follow its line, it travels through the lobby, out over the pool, across the main stage and out to the famous Las Vegas strip.
And how about that main stage? An amazing view for guests and performers alike. 
Okay, okay, maybe it’s just a
