One wedding venue that never goes out of style is Las Vegas.
With a chapel on every corner and endless Elvis impersonators waiting in the wings to be witnesses, Vegas does weddings in a big way.
Not only do you not have to be a resident to get hitched, there are no waiting periods or red tape either – you can even get married in your hire car at a drive-through.
