The first things that come to mind when you mention a Las Vegas wedding are these: quickie weddings, Elvis impersonators, tacky chapels and even wedding bouquets playing a taped version of the wedding march.
But what if you live in Las Vegas or a nearby city and you have no other option but to get married in the Sin City?
Here’s a quick list of the pros and cons of getting hitched in Vegas:
Pros:
- Vegas weddings are affordable - you can have a complete ceremony for a few hundred bucks.
- You can get married in a whim, a.k.a short notice.
- It’s convenient, fun and you don’t need to fly off for your honeymoon!
Cons:
- You can’t have your dream of a fairy-tale wedding with color-coordinated everythings.
- You can’t hold the reception on the wedding chapel - it needs a separate arrangement.
- Finally, there’s still that tacky image associated to quickie Vegas weddings.
However, if you’re not into image-building and you just want to get hitched with the love of your life - there’s absolutely no reason for you to ditch the idea of a Vegas wedding. At least for one day, you can shed all pretense and not care a damn about what other people think!




I love Las Vegas and I think it’s one of the best places on Earth to get married! Open 24/7, no muss, no fuss, a little something for two. I think it’s brilliant! And I would not give a damn about what others think. It’s supposed to be your day, your decision and your life, right?
PS: this could be good for the guys too, no stupid pressure traditional weddings put on them. That’s one more pro! ;)
