🛫 Vegan in Vegas: What Surprised Us the Most
Vegan in Vegas? Most people think it’s all just fast food, smoky casinos, and no options for people who care about animals or health. But that’s not the full story!
In this episode, Brighde shares how Las Vegas surprised her—with tasty vegan meals, fun shows, and even a super sweet wedding. You’ll hear how she made it all work without giving up her values (or her love of good snacks!).
🌮 Where We Ate: Vegan Food in Vegas
Las Vegas has more vegan food than you’d expect! Here’s where we went and what we ate.
Nacho Daddy: So Many Vegan Choices!
This place is great for people who love tacos and fajitas. The vegan menu is big, and the food is delicious.
Oops! Not-So-Vegan Salad at Slice of Vegas
Even if a restaurant has vegan food, it’s good to double-check your order. One salad came with cheese by mistake!
Crossroads Kitchen: Fancy and Tasty
This was our special dinner night! We had amazing vegan lasagna and chicken piccata. A little pricey—but worth it!
🎭 The Fun Shows We Saw in Vegas
Las Vegas is full of shows—and they are awesome!
- Michael Jackson ONE had dancing, music, and lights.
- Absinthe was silly, grown-up, and super fun.
If you’re in Vegas, go to a show. It’s the best part!
🌀 The Weirdest Place: Omega Mart by Meow Wolf
Omega Mart looks like a grocery store—but surprise! It’s a giant art adventure. You can crawl through freezers, find secret doors, and laugh at silly fake products. It’s fun and very strange in the best way.
🔥 Tips to Survive the Heat and Save Money
Vegas is hot and can be expensive—but here’s how we handled it.
Beat the Heat and Stay Cool
Bring a cooler bag, plant milk, a water bottle, and snacks that don’t need a fridge.
How to Save Money in Vegas
Watch out for sneaky fees like resort charges and fridge use. Make your own breakfast and save your money for shows!
Getting Around Town Without Getting Lost
Vegas is huge! Use free trams, rideshares like Uber, and try to plan by area so you’re not walking forever.
💒 A Beautiful Wedding in Vegas
Brighde and Seb went to a wedding at a cute little chapel with sparkly lights and a big Elvis vibe. Later they had mocktails at Skyfall Lounge and watched the sunset. It was sweet and special—Vegas weddings can be magical!
🎀 Bonus Fun: Maija’s Bachelorette Bucket List
Before the wedding, Brighde and her friends planned a silly and sparkly scavenger hunt for Maija—all part of her Vegas bachelorette celebration!
They made a custom bucket list full of funny dares and photo challenges like taking a shot with a stranger, finding a showgirl, or getting a photo at the Eiffel Tower replica. It was a fun way to explore the Strip and make unforgettable memories.
👇 Here’s the actual list they used!
