Gay Wedding in Las Vegas

Las Vegas, a resort town in Nevada’s Mojave Desert is famed for its buzzing energy. A town with 24-hour casinos and endless entertainment options. Its focal point is the Strip.  The Strip is just over 4 miles long. It’s lined with elaborately themed hotels, luxury resorts and innumerable casinos. Drivers of the Las Vegas economy are tourism, gaming and conventions, which in turn, feed the retail and restaurant industries.

Same-Sex Weddings in Las Vegas

Las Vegas has come to be known as the Marriage Capital of the World.  Due to the ease of acquiring a marriage license, the minimal costs involved, and the various types of weddings available. The process of obtaining a license has been so streamlined that once a short form is completed and submitted to the marriage license bureau along with $77 cash and a government issued photo identification, a marriage license may be obtained within minutes. The wedding ceremony must be performed within a year of receipt of the marriage license in order to be valid, and marriages are legal and binding worldwide.

Same-Sex, LGBT Weddings in Las Vegas

Now that there are more and more same-sex weddings in Las Vegas being planned, it’s a really great time to take stock of how to serve these couples with their wedding plans. The Little Church of the West is the perfect choice for same-sex weddings in Las Vegas. Gay weddings in Las Vegas can be as varied as your imagination allows. Some of them are just not very traditional. Actually, less than 15 percent of same-sex weddings in Las Vegas incorporate traditional wedding features such as wedding showers, ring bearers and flower girls.

Wedding Traditions

We’ve seen that gay and lesbian couples like to skip traditions altogether or invent their own. Couples can choose to have a wedding party, or not. Just like modern day opposite-sex weddings, same-sex weddings in Las Vegas offers the couples the option to have anyone stand up with them and at the Little Church of the West, we can also customize the music played. So if you want to have your song played while you walk down the aisle, or enter together, that is totally up to you. We are happy to accommodate you. Many couples also choose to say their own vows. Together with the minister’s ceremony, your wedding will be exactly what you were looking for.

A gay wedding

Who’s the bride at a gay wedding? Well, sometimes there are two, and sometimes there are none, and sometimes one doesn’t feel like a bride. This gives us at the chapel, and the wedding couple, so much freedom in how we process the ceremony. Most of the couples marrying in same-sex weddings in Las Vegas aren’t even being escorted down the aisle by anyone. For these gay weddings in Las Vegas, we mostly see the couples enter the chapel together. Nobody has to be “given away” at a gay wedding; that’s just another silly gender norm.

TIP!

When you are getting married, ask for help from family and friends, especially those who have gone through the wedding process before. They will help to offer you exceptional advice, as they have the experience that is necessary to give input on your decision.
