Named after the Sierra Nevada mountain range, Nevada is a state perhaps known best for being host to the gambling capital of America, Las Vegas. But there's much more to Nevada than just the City of Sin. Deserts, mountains and rivers cover the state, making it a great place for nature-oriented couples to enjoy mellow romantic forays and pulse-pounding outdoor adventures alike.

Canoe on Lake Tahoe, raft along one of the state's raging rivers, hike through a national park or take your love vertical and experience the thrill of guided rock climbing at Red Rocks, an internationally-known climbing destination where lovers can get some of the state's most breathtaking mountain and desert views.

Of course, we would be remiss not to talk more about fabulously-decadent and world famous city of Las Vegas, a hallucinatory adult wonderland where fantasy and reality seem to meet halfway. See a show, go to the opera, paint the town red or have a cozy dinner in this city known for its sexy, anything-goes vibe. For marrying couples and honeymooners, what happens in Nevada won't stay in Nevada…you'll be taking the memories with you forever after.
