Other than the usual nicknames such as "The Gambling Capital of the United States", Sin City or "The Entertainment Capital of the World", the enchanting city of Las Vegas has also come to be known as "The Marriage Capital of the World". The city is called as such for its lenience in acquiring a marriage license along with the relatively minimal costs involved.
For this reason, the city is a popular wedding destination for a lot of couples coming from another state. There are also various types of weddings available for couples to choose from, which could well be the driving factor that attracted numerous weddings to be held within the city in the first place.
Acquiring a marriage license in Las Vegas is relatively easy as well as hassle-free compared to other states in the US, or perhaps the whole world for that matter.
The steps in filing for a marriage license in Las Vegas are as follows:
*The couple fills out a short form.
*The form, along with 55 USD cash, is submitted to the Bureau for processing.
*Secure and submit to the Bureau a government-issued photo ID.
After finishing this process, a marriage license will be readily available for the couple in just a few minutes. In case of past marriages, divorce papers are not at all necessary in order to file for a marriage license.
The types of weddings are also extremely popular events in Las Vegas. Wedding types typically include desk weddings, wedding chapels, and weddings that are held in outdoor locations.
The desk wedding is relatively the least expensive option of the three, only costing roughly around 50 USD to marry at the Marriage Commission of Las Vegas.
Wedding chapels are the most varied of the three, which is often held in the presence of a hired impersonator. The most commonplace as well as the most popular impersonator of all time is Elvis Presley. In fact, a significant majority of wedding chapels held in Las Vegas hire an Elvis Presley impersonator to perform during the ceremony.
