It is wonderful occasions like this that provide us all with great memories that we will never, ever forget, and I am incredibly honoured to have been of part of this special day. Also, I want to thank you for getting married at this time of the year, because now, whenever I see the leaves turning colour and falling off the trees, I’ll be reminded that it’s time to buy your anniversary gift."

For most people, planning a wedding takes months or a year. Finding the right venue, organizing the reception and inviting guests takes time under traditional circumstances, but if a couple prefers a nontraditional wedding, they often can throw away the traditional timeline. Las Vegas is full of excitement and energy, and couples have nearly limitless options when it comes to choosing wedding venues.

   Hot Air Balloon Wedding

   Drive-Through Wedding

   • The Little White Chapel offers a drive-through option 24 hours a day.

     If a quick and simple ceremony is more your style, then a drive-through wedding chapel might suffice.

This charming tradition began when a disabled couple wanted to marry, but could not leave the car. The minister, Charolette Richards presided over the ceremony while in the driveway.
