When it’s time to get married quickly, Las Vegas is a common destination in part because you can get a same-day marriage license with no waiting period.
Hell, they even have marriage license “pop-up” locations at the airport before Valentine’s Day.
Beyond easy licensure, Vegas venues are wide-ranging and include Elvis impersonators, getting hitched at elevation, or even at a freaking Taco Bell over a tray of Chili Cheese Burritos.
For this post, I’m skipping the “yawner” venues, like a church, and focusing on the most unique, scenic, memorable ones I can think of.
One of a Kind Wedding Venues
Flying Above Vegas
Saying your “I dos” hundreds of feet above the Strip in a helicopter is one way to make it memorable.
Maverick offers wedding and proposal packages starting at $899, which include a limousine ride to the flight terminal, preflight champagne, and an officiant who flies along.
I went on an aerial Strip tour, and it was awesome.
Valley of Fire State Park
In addition to weddings flying over the Strip, Maverick Helicopters sells packages that’ll fly you out to the Valley of Fire State Park to get hitched.
You don’t have to fly out either, as Valley of Fire is just an hour from Vegas by car.
It’s scenic AF.
It looks like Valley of Fire wedding packages start at around $900, and there are an array of vendors out there willing to help you out.
Red Rock Canyon
On the same “sheet of music” as Valley of Fire, Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is both gorgeous and under 30 minutes from the Strip by car.
Again, several vendors online can help you get it done, and I’m seeing packages starting around $900.
High Roller
The 550-foot-tall High Roller Observation Wheel offers a wedding in the sky, with stunning views of the Vegas skyline as the backdrop.
Options include everything from flowers to photography to reception services, starting at $395 and increasing as you add extras.
Just look at the people in the pic. They look so in love, even though they’re not actually a couple.
Atop the Eiffel Tower
It doesn’t get much more unique than getting hitched inside a replica Eiffel Tower overlooking the Strip.
The baseline package offered by the Eiffel Tower Restaurant (located 1/3 of the way up the tower) includes a dinner for two, an officiant, and vows exchanged at dinner, or in front of the Balloon out front of Paris.
Pricing starts at $1,000 and increases as you add options.
In addition to Paris’ two traditional chapels, wedding ceremony packages are also available on the Eiffel Tower viewing deck.
Call (702)777-2782 for pricing and scheduling.
Beside the Bellagio Fountains
There are few spots in Las Vegas more photogenic and iconic than the Fountains of Bellagio, and both Bellagio’s Terrazza di Sogno and Fountain Courtyard venues allow them to be the backdrop of your big day.
Packages start at $2,600, and ceremonies are live-streamed online so that friends and family from afar can follow along.
Aboard a Thrill Ride
Tie the knot on the platform of the Big Apple Coaster at New York New York, then board the rollercoaster to start your married life in style.
The roller coaster itself is wild, reaching speeds of up to 67 mph, going upside down, and offering stunning views of the Strip from New York-New York’s rooftop.
Amid Las Vegas History
For those enthralled with Las Vegas history, a wedding at the Neon Museum is tough to beat.
For those unfamiliar, the outdoor museum is home to neon signage from earlier incarnations of Vegas, now long gone.
Hosting 60 -minute ceremonies, the venue can accommodate up to 50 spectators. One thing is certain: all that vintage neon will make for amazing wedding photos.
A Wedding With a View
A one-of-a-kind Las Vegas wedding venue, STRAT has two chapels on level 103 of its SkyPod, 800 feet up.
In addition to STRAT’s chapels on level 103, they also offer outdoor weddings on levels 108 & 109 on the observation deck. “Wedding in the Clouds” packages atop STRAT’s SkyPod start at $949 and scale up depending on options and timeframe.
Notably, STRAT offers a wide variety of differentiated wedding packages. The cheapest of which starts at $199 for a short Minimoni ceremony that accommodates up to ten guests and takes place at the base of the SkyPod tower.
Unique wedding twists can also be added to include taking the “leap of faith”, jumping off the STRAT’s tower to your ceremony below for an additional $129.99 per jumper.
Additionally, guests can opt for a “Thrill Ride Wedding Package” where you are actually wed on one of STRAT’s rides atop the tower. Thrill ride packages start at $479.
On a Pirate Ship
Yeah, you can get married aboard the Song Ship in Siren’s Cove at TI.
Pirate ship wedding packages at TI start at $1,380 and include the ceremony, personalized music, his/her’s shirts, and a dressing room with champagne service.
Aboard the Titanic
If you don’t mind the grim metaphor, you can get married on the replica Titanic’s grand staircase at the Titanic Artifact Exhibit at Luxor.
30-day notice is required, and parties interested in this unique Las Vegas wedding venue should call (702) 730-5983.
Aboard a Romantic Gondola
While The Venetian offers several wedding venues, the most unique is aboard their white wedding gondola, navigating the canals of the Grand Canal Shoppes, which expertly mimic the canals of Venice.
The Gondola Luxury Wedding package comes with expert planning assistance, photography, and an officiant. Pricing starts at $1,150 and increases as you add options.
Awkwardly, your gondolier will sing to you while looking you in the eye. Not my jam, but I know others dig the awkwardness.
BattleBots Destruct-A-Thon
The popular TV show comes to life behind Horseshoe, where robots engage in combat nightly at Battlebots Destruct-A-Thon – I’ve done it, and it’s corny, wonderful, and reminded me of my childhood.
Part of the show pits a killer robot against a defenseless slot machine. It’s cute.
They oddly also host weddings.
At the “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas” Sign
Numerous chapels in Las Vegas offer to perform weddings at the iconic sign that marks the south end of the Strip.
Pricing typically starts around $200 for a basic, no-frills ceremony, but spendier options are available. One chapel, the Little Church of the West, offers a ceremony officiated by an Elvis impersonator for $399.
Taco Bell Cantina
Weddings at Taco Bell’s flagship location are limited to 15 guests, and you’ll receive a wedding bouquet made of sauce packets, a private area for your reception, and some unique swag, such as a sauce packet bowtie.
Denny’s on Fremont Street
Sticking to your mediocre food-themed weddings, Denny’s in Neonopolis downtown offers a $199 wedding package that includes use of a chapel, a wedding cake, a champagne toast, 2 wedding T-shirts, and 2 original Grand Slams (good for your next visit).
Weird AF.
Sounds fun.
A Themed Mini-Golf Course
I doubt you thought that tying the knot at a mini-golf course was possible, but it is.
Both the Kiss-themed course at Rio and the Twilight Zone-themed course at Horseshoe have a chapel and can host your special day.
Packages start at $299 and escalate as you add options.
I promised unique venues in Vegas, and dangit, I intend to deliver.
The Mob Museum
Located just off Fremont Street, The Mob Museum has played a significant role in Las Vegas history, serving as both a US Post Office and a Federal Courthouse.
While it now focuses on educating the public about the Mob and organized crime’s influence, it also hosts wedding ceremonies.
Packages that accommodate up to 4 guests start at $600, but numerous options are available at other price points depending on the couple’s selections.
The Punk Rock Museum
Located off Strip, The Punk Rock Museum features a wedding chapel offering 2 wedding packages.
The first is a “quick, no-frills elopement”, while the “Til Death Do Us Punk” package includes up to 25 guests, a mini reception, and some Punk Rock Museum Merch.
Evel Knievel Experience
A new attraction, the Evel Knievel Experience offers wedding packages that can accommodate anywhere from 2 to 2,000 guests.
I can’t think of a more intimate setting than being surrounded by bodysuits and other Evel memorabilia
Area15
An off-Strip entertainment complex known for its unique offerings (like Omega Mart, Haley’s Comet, and Museum Fiasco’s “Cluster”), Area15 also offers wedding packages.
A number of unique settings are available within Area15 for your wedding, including the Oddwood Lounge, the Sanctuary, and the Liftoff Bar, among others.

Congrats on your upcoming wedding or proposal! Hopefully, you can find a venue worthy of your ceremony!
