A Special Memory Wedding Chapel
800 S. Fourth St., Las Vegas, NV, 89101
Whether you’re choosing drive-through nuptials, an Elvis impersonator, traditional trappings, or an outdoor ceremony amid sweeping desert landscapes, getting married at A Special Memory Wedding Chapel is a quintessential Vegas experience. While the chapel itself looks more like an actual church than many Vegas wedding venues—it has a white steeple and everything—couples here can tie the knot with personalized ceremonies.
The basics
A Special Memory Wedding Chapel offers a number of different packages for weddings and vow renewals, where you can customize your flowers and photo package. Choose the location for your ceremony; their on-site chapel, featuring oak pews and stained glass windows; their drive-through window; or a remote location, which includes flying in a helicopter to the Grand Canyon. Additional add-ons include cakes, champagne, an Elvis impersonator to walk you down the aisle or drive you, and photo tours after the ceremony.
