What does the average American wedding cost?

America is a vast place, so no two weddings are the same, or cost the same. Weddings in Vegas tend to be cheaper than other parts of the country owing to their nature (many couples choose to get married whilst in Vegas already, popping to a drive-thru wedding chapel in the afternoon and back to the hotel in time for dinner). A Vegas wedding can be yours for as little as £199. The average American wedding, including all expenses such as the rings, ceremony and reception, comes in at a whopping $33,900! But rest assured, our all-inclusive packages will set you back far, far less than that.

What happens at a typical American wedding?

American weddings are much the same as British ones, with a ceremony of vows followed by drinks and a reception. There is an old tradition whereby several women at an American wedding are sometimes asked to dress similar to the bride, so as to confuse any evil spirits that may attempt to kidnap her.

What do you wear at a drive-thru wedding?

Dress codes are fairly relaxed, as are most things, at a drive-thru wedding in Las Vegas. However, it wouldn’t be a Vegas wedding unless you got dressed up in the most classic or kitsch outfits you can find. Channel the spirit of the Rat Pack or Lady Gaga and go big like the Vegas headliners!
