| - If you watch a lot of movies about getting married in Vegas, you tend to see the little chapels-married by Elvis-impulse weddings a lot.
While you CAN get married 24/7 in Vegas, what they don't show you is that unless you have stopped by this place - your not getting married.
Yes- its true. You cannot win big ( or lose it all ) then run to the nearest drive-thru chapel to get hitched. You must get your marriage licence first, and this is where you get it.
Fortunately, they are open until midnight!
Located downtown. Just blocks away from Fremont Street.
When i got married last summer, I ended up here not once, but twice. I had filled the paperwork out online beforehand, and presented our ID to the clerk. Then quickly completed the process.
There are no blood tests required, and yes you can get married in Clark County if you are from another country.
Just don't lose any of your paperwork.
Or don't let your fiance who has had a few drinks, and is buzzing along nicely, write all over the back of any of the forms. This will earn you yet another trip back to repeat the above process. And yes, pay for the paperwork once again.
Also, if you are running late, and arrive just before midnight, be sure to follow the ropes to the front counter. DO NOT cut in the empty line up! The stern security officer WILL make you go to the back, and start all over again as he threatens to kick you out and make you come back in the morning !
You also may not drink your open bottle of pre celebratory champagne! This must be left outside.
Don't worry ! Yes ! He is not this only one who works here that is in such a pleasant mood!
The clerks who helped us both times did not crack a smile nor did they have a sense of humour.
Oh well ! Just get your paperwork, obey the ropes, don't lose or write on any thing you need, and you are that much closer to making a huge mistake ! Just kidding kids. I couldn't be happier!
And i wish the same to you .
