Downtown Las Vegas

The Smith Center Weddings

The Smith Center for the Performing Arts is downtown's art deco jewel box: travertine, bronze and a carillon tower that gives ceremonies a sense of old-world Europe.

Scheme's pearl-gray design story at The Smith Center, photographed by Susie and Will Photography, was featured by Hey Wedding Lady for bringing "luxe to Las Vegas."

Planning notes from our team

  • Grand Lobby and terrace spaces reward restrained, architectural design; the building is the statement.
  • Downtown's arts district gives you after-party and welcome-dinner options within a few blocks.
  • Weekday and Sunday availability is often better here than at Strip resorts.
It doesn’t get any more lovely than the serene tones of this pearl gray wedding shoot that brings luxe to Las Vegas! Fine art photographers Susie and Will teamed up with Scheme Events and Layers of Lovely to bring these timeless trends to beautiful life. A neutral color palette of gray, white and black complemented the old-world surroundings of the venue at The Smith Center, accented with lush flowers, a pearl-adorned bridal cape and subtle hints of blue and purple.

Wedding questions, answered: The Smith Center

Can you really get married at The Smith Center?

Yes. The Smith Center hosts private events including weddings, and Scheme has designed published work in its spaces.

What design styles suit The Smith Center?

The art deco architecture flatters neutral palettes, metallics and sculptural florals. Our design proposals start from the building's own materials: travertine, bronze and warm light.

Do you handle vendor logistics for downtown venues?

Yes. Load-in windows, parking and union considerations differ downtown; our production schedules account for all of it.
