Best way to do Laos and Chiang Mai


In Feb next year I'm looking to do Laos and Chiang Mai, ideally without having to double back through Laos. It doesn't matter which one is done first, but most likely coming from Bangkok. I'm not sure if it would be best to do Chiang Mai first, then work through Vientiane to Vang Vieng to Luang Prabang and fly back to Bangkok or whether to do it vice versa. Also flights are quiet expensive so if anyone else knows a more economical way that would be much better! Oh as well as any advice as to what to see in these places.
