Getting Married in Las Vegas

Las Vegas is the easiest place in the world to get married. There is no blood test and no waiting period. You can even get married at a drive-through chapel and not have to go through all the fancy planning. Your honeymoon destination is right down the street.

The cost of a marriage license runs around $60. You go to the Clark County Marriage License Bureau which is open until midnight some days and then you can go plan the most simple or extravagant wedding that you want.

Valentine’s Day is the busiest day for weddings. They perform over 100 on February 14. The ease of a ceremony is a big attraction because the wedding chapels will usually take care of everything. Sometimes they will even give you a limo ride to the license bureau and back. They also offer different accessories including rings to a video of the service.

A really interesting thing to do in Las Vegas is go to the chapels and watch the people. Stand out and watch the different brides and grooms and see how they are attired and how their wedding goes. This may give some idea of the kind of wedding you may want. It is your wedding however, and you need to feel comfortable whether it is a small affair or a large gala.

Weddings can be very cheap in Las Vegas running around $500 at some place or up in the tens of thousands. These usually will include photos, video, cake, music, and flowers. There are specialty weddings. You can have Elvis singing or have Elvis officiate your wedding. At the Star Trek Experience, you can get married dressed as a Borg or Klingon. At the Excalibur Hotel, you can dress in medieval clothing. At the Venetian, you can get married on the gondola ride.
