Does that also include dessert?

How about a nice Las Vegas all-you-can-eat buffet?

I love their chapel-finding methods – B.D. checks the paper while Boopsie calls the hotel lobby. This is how the stars do it!

One classy guy, that B.D.! :D

We had a secular wedding in a motel; a nice meeting room set up with chairs to form an aisle, and the reception in a bigger room down the hall.

The motel was subsequently torn down and replaced with a huge supermarket. We joke that we marched down the produce aisle.

At least get an Elvis impersonator to marry you.

Slaw’s nasty. One of my main gag foods.

Where the wedding takes place isn’t all that important. The one of my three marriages that lasted the longest took place at the drive-thru chapel in Vegas – we joked about the preacher asking if we wanted fries with our marriage. We’d been happily married for 18 years when she passed away in 2014. Neither of the others even lasted ten years.

We find that steak doesn’t actually have a whole lot of flavor. Most of the flavor comes from the sauces, spices or marinades rather than the meat. And I’m talking expensive steak here.

What? No Elvis?

I don’t know if GT was making this up, but I saw an actual “Hitchin’ Post” chapel in Las Vegas.

If you don’t mind the Aroma of the Preacher’s Horse.

Plus, the horses the Wedding Party rides around on.
