Elvis at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas

If you’re the superstitious sort, 9/9/09 is purportedly a lucky date to get married, and what better place to do it than the wedding capital of the world? From spectacular views of The Strip to chapels where Elvis awaits, here are a few inimitable venues in Las Vegas to say “I do”:

• If a jaunt to the City of Lights isn’t in the budget, Chapelle du Paradis and Chapelle du Jardin at Paris Las Vegas are the next best thing. It sure beats the hell out getting hitched in Paris, Texas. www.parislasvegas.com; (877) 650-5021

• For an elevated ceremony in the clouds, stars or if you want to share your special moment with celestial beings, the Chapel in the Clouds at the Stratosphere is the ideal location. www.stratospherehotel.com; (800) 789-9436

• In 1942, before The Strip was in existence, sat a lone wedding chapel originally built as part of the Last Frontier Hotel. The Little Church of the West is still in existence and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. According to its Web site, it has hosted more celebrity weddings than any other chapel in the world such as Richard Gere and Cindy Crawford, and Zsa Zsa Gabor and George Sanders; but Betty Grable and Harry James were the first in 1943. www.littlechurch.com; (800) 821-2452

• For a quick and dirty drive-thru wedding, visit the Little White Wedding Chapel. An in-house wedding is possible, but where’s the fun in that when you can hit Jack-in-the-Box for the reception dinner? www.alittlewhitechapel.com; (800) 545-8111

• One word will make you swoon…well, two actually: Elvis impersonator. The Viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapel is one of the more renowned venues for Elvis weddings. www.vivalasvegasweddings.com; (702) 384-0771
