Las Vegas: Novelty weddings
When it comes to getting hitched in style, the sky is literally the limit in Las Vegas. Most wedding chapels can persuade Elvis to arrive in a pink Cadillac and sing Love Me Tender , but there are plenty of options guaranteed to make you the star of the show. Unorthodox options include plighting your troth amid the pirates aboard HMS Britannia outside Treasure Island (tel 894-7700); on the deck of the USS Enterprise at the Hilton (tel 697-8750); floating on a gondola in the Venetian 's Grand Canal (tel 414-4253); with a fire-breathing dragon for witness on the EFX stage at the MGM Grand (tel 891-7984); or cavorting in medieval costume at Excalibur (tel 597-7278).At Circus Circus , A.J. Hackett Bungy (tel 385-4321) can take your vows perched on a tiny platform immediately before plummeting on an eighteen-story bungee jump. A Little White Chapel in the Sky (tel 382-5943) arranges marriages in a hot-air balloon from $650, while Las Vegas Helicopters (tel 736-0013) can provide a minister to perform your ceremony either hovering over the Strip or on the rim of the Grand Canyon.
