Viva Las Vegas Weddings Press & Media

Thumbs Up Productions, a UK based production company, are filming at our Chapel during October 2017 for a brand new wedding series that is based in the wedding capital of the world, Las Vegas.

The series aims to ‘lift the veil’ on the wedding dream makers, the Las Vegas wedding staff that make your wedding day magical and memorable. Thumbs Up Productions are looking for loved-up UK couples who are interested in having their wedding featured on the show and are tying the knot here in Las Vegas in October.

We're looking for a range of weddings from low key to lavish, secret elopements to vow renewals, non-religious blessings to same sex weddings to those who are bringing the whole bridal party with them!

"Good Morning America" recently celebrated the start of wedding season with a 24-hour marathon live stream featuring 100 couples getting hitched in various locations all over the world. We're very proud to announce that VIVA LAS VEGAS WEDDING CHAPEL was among them!

The GMA film crew were on hand to capture our famous Elvis Pink Cadillac wedding ceremony, returning later in the evening to film our one-of-a-kind James Bond Themed Wedding, with a live singer performing Diamonds are Forever during the ring exchange, and "007" himself performing the ceremony!

Other weddings during the nuptial marathon for "Good Morning America" took place in Times Square studio; New York City’s City Hall; Gretna Green, Scotland; San Francisco’s City Hall; Las Vegas’ Little White Chapel (a neighbor of ours); Soeul, South Korea; Los Angeles; Detroit, Michigan; and at the fabulous Disney World in Orlando, Florida.

"GMA" live streamed back-to-back weddings, including behind-the-scenes peeks at the various matrimonial venues. We were thrilled to be a part of the day of weddings, which culminated in a live mass wedding on the Friday, April 29th "Good Morning America" program.

Ron DeCar owner of the World Famous Viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapel is interviewd by the New York Times for a piece about weddings in Las Vegas, and how "The King" is still the King of Weddings in Las Vegas and how Themed Weddings are getting more popular.

"With millennials and Gen Xers now in their prime marriage years, the days of trotting out a fake Elvis to officiate at Las Vegas wedding chapel would seemingly be long gone. Not so, said Ron DeCar, a performer and owner of Viva Las Vegas Weddings." Click here to read full article

Viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapel is a two-time winner of the highly competitive Best of Las Vegas award. The annual winner is decided by popular vote through our local Las Vegas Review Journal, and by the newspaper itself. We are especially humbled by the support in the community, which inspires us to earn your trust every day. We believe that our gracious hardworking staff and talented performers are a big part of our success. That, and the ability to give couples an abundance of choices on their wedding day, makes all the difference.

Viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapel has been the recipient of Nevada Magazine’s Best of Nevada award for ten years running, an award based on reader votes and reviews. We are honored to have received this recognition among the dozens of other wedding chapels in Las Vegas. For us, it provides the incentive to try even harder to earn that praise—and to make all of our traditional, themed, and Elvis weddings the best Las Vegas, or even all of Nevada, has to offer.

El Show de realidad de Alaska y Mario Vaquerizo es un show como los Osbournes de los Estados Unidos. Es un show de realidad que nos deja pensando hmmmmm. Wow, que tiempos tan dulce!

Alaska y Mario se casaron aquí en la capilla de el jardín hace trece años con Elvis. Alaska y Mario llegaron con su crew de MTV y sus amigos que nos acompañaron con mucho cariño y amor. Alaska y Mario pidieron el mismo Elvis para su renovación de votos 13 anos después de el dia de su boda original. Fue una boda con el Cadillac color de rosa entrando a la capilla con Elvis manejando y cantando ~ “that’s alright momma” con mucha emoción y entusiasmo.

Estando al rededor de Alaska y Mario, se puede sentir el amor que hasta calienta el alma. Esta pareja es para siempre y son muy humildes. Sus amigos también se casaron aquí en nuestro Gazebo. Fueron unas bodas muy dulces y muy memorables. Espero, si buscan un lugar para su día especial que nos den una llamada a 702-384-0771

. Tenemos bodas adentro de nuestra capilla, tenemos un jardín, un gazebo y un cuarto en el estilo de los 50's que es bien padre

Felicidades Alaska y Mario departe de Ron De Car el dueño de la capilla y su Elvis original-y también departe de sus amigos que trabajan día después de día casando muchas parejas en bodas tradicionales y de tema. Y gracias a MTV, pero especialmente, a Alaska y Mario por dejar nos ver adentro de su mundo tan lindo! Ve el video aqui!
