Default Getting married in Vegas..

Well after 10 years and 2 kids my sisters boyfriend is finally making an honest women of her and keeping in touch with their Chav side they want to do it in Vegas in August when they come to visit us.
As my family are retarded northerners with no clue on how to work these new fangled computer things, she has no way of researching this on the internet so has asked me to do it.
Anyone done it, been to one, recommend a place etc etc (preferably with Elvis involved )..

Thanks..

Me and my ball and chain were planning on doing it in Vegas in 2003, so we researchd it quite a bit, eventually we decided against it after talking to two other women who'd done it and heard their tales of Vegas being one giant retirement home and the description of their conveyer-belt weddings with plastic bouquets and 2 minute ceremonies being about as enjoyable and glam as a Blackburn bingo hall. Plus I was aurprised at how expensive they turned into once you added it all up.
Anyway....if she's interested have a butchers at www.vegasweddings4u.com
One of the girls did say she thought this hotel was the best thing about the whole experience, its the one with the Venitian Canal in the middle of it. http://www.venetian.com/shoppe/index.cfm

I've been to 2 Las Vegas/Elvis weddings;
My roomate got married to a Scottish girl in 'The wee kirk o' the heather' some years ago;

http://www.weekirk.com/

Made famous in the LA Mark & Brian radio show some years ago ( you probably have no idea what I'm on about?)
Can't remember where exactly the other one was but it was very similar. If I remember blood tests are important???????

You can do some very classy weddings these days in Vegas. Most of the hotels have amazing chapels. But of course, if Elvis is what you want, or even a drive thru wedding, you're also catered for. The Little White Chapel is the most famous

My friends got married at the Bellagio on the patio by the fountains - superb - plus they have an inside chapel - they give you the limo to go and get the license!

True tack though has to be the little white chapel north LV Bouelvard - bit cheaper!!
