For any woman that wants to get married, planning a wedding from scratch can either be the chance of a lifetime by actually having the wedding that she always dreamed of or can turn into a real disaster by having no clue what to do or how to keep it all organized. In the new Wedding Planner hidden-object game from Oberon Games, you get to take on the role of a wedding planner in Las Vegas that manages every aspect of the couple’s wedding.

Considering that the action is placed in the city that never sleeps, what better way to make money and gain extra points than by playing a couple of mini card games in the casino. As you win more mini games, the more money you will have, and, thus, the bridal location will benefit from various and luxurious ornaments and upgrades. From the bride's bouquet and chair decoration to choosing the perfect music band and wedding cake, these things can be slowly bought and upgraded along the game, so that you can turn the wedding into everyone’s dream wedding.

Although the title's main purpose is to plan the details of a wedding, the hidden-object part of it comes as a means to an end, mostly because all the objects that you are looking for are directly related to what a bride needs. Finding the perfect makeup kit, jewelry and even the appropriate clothes for the bride are only a couple of the tasks that await you in the title. Also, you will be faced with the difficult task of baking cookies for the receptions and even supervising the wedding cake so that there are no mistakes made and everything can turn out perfect.

The mini titles are mostly puzzle games and matching games that need to be solved in order to complete each location. At one time, you will find yourself trapped in a phone booth and you have to find a way to call someone to get you out. Also, at the jewelry shop, you will be faced with the difficult task of matching two identical jewelry items from a set of eighteen given possibilities. All in all, these small challenges are perfect for raising money and escaping for a short amount of time from the hidden-object world.

Another aspect of the title that enhances the gaming experience is the gameplay music. Most of these types of titles come with a dull soundtrack that doesn’t tell you anything about the game, but the new Wedding Planer one has a classical music-themed soundtrack that blends perfectly with each setting that you encounter.

The level of detail given to each scenario is impressive, considering that the title doesn’t lack animated elements such as waterfalls and fish that swim in a tank. The key to a successful game lies in the great graphics and the level of detail, both of them being present, enhancing the gameplay experience.

Dream Day Wedding: Viva Las Vegas is a fun title that can be played by both boys and girls alike, because both genders will take something different from it. While girls will love to plan the wedding and then buy appropriate ornaments, boys will appreciate a good puzzle and the thrill of winning more points by finding all the objects faster. Considering that the free version of the title has a limited gameplay, you are more than welcome to give it a try and decide for yourself if your want to go the whole way and plan the perfect wedding by paying the full 19.99 dollars to unlock all its features.
