Valentines Day is a very busy day in Las Vegas, especially for the wedding chapels. Since Valentines Day ended up on a Sunday, I kind of doubt the religious Churches were as busy s opposed to Saturdays and every other day of the week.

As newly married couples milled through the Little White Wedding Chapel, a guy dressed like Elvis Presley interrupted its Cupid-esque owner, Charlotte Richards, mid-sentence to give her a hug. It was Valentine’s Day, after all. This is an internationally known place, and (couples) come here because it’s very special,” said Paul Casey, 42, who was dressed as The King to perform during the ceremonies.
Richards estimated her chapel would marry more than 120 couples on Valentine’s Day – a typical number for the holiday, she said.
The chapel offers a variety of services, including a drive-up window where, for $40, couples can get hitched.
Even though the chapel’s ceremonies are short, lasting only about 12 to 15 minutes, they are the start of something big and long-lasting, Richards said. Eighteen couples signed up for spots to get married at midnight on Valentine’s Day, she said.
“Las Vegas is not the city of sin -- it’s the city of love and romance,” Richards said. “I want to be instrumental in changing that.”
Think about that, 120 in one day, at one one Wedding Chapel. There will be thousands married today in Vegas, which is good news for the Clark County as they will be collecting the marriage license fees.
Another Drone Theory! "Conspiracy"????
