Las Vegas—Clark County has big plans in September to celebrate Las Vegas being known as the “Wedding Capital of the World” for the past 70 years.
The county plans to host a mass vow renewal ceremony at Caesars Palace for hundreds of couples and a vintage-Vegas style production show hosted by Dennis Bono, of “The Dennis Bono Show.” Participants will have an elaborate wedding cake by Buddy V’s Carlo’s Bakery Las Vegas, brunch-inspired fare and activities.
The event will be a partnership between the different municipal governments in Clark County and celebrates the 70th anniversary of the London Daily Herald calling Las Vegas the “wedding capital of the world,” in a Sept. 23, 1953, article.
The wedding business community got a preview recently at the Bootlegger Bistro, where Clark County Clerk Lynn Marie Goya made the pitch for companies to sponsor the Sept. 3 event.
