A little wedding chapel in Las Vegas, where many celebrities have gotten married.

Las Vegas has truly earned its reputation of “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.” However, people like to take their show on the road. Come to Las Vegas, get hitched, and return to their respective stay places. According to cnn.com “Lucky 7s” day – 7/7/2007 – stands as the most popular wedding date in Las Vegas history, with 4,492 couples married.”

Las Vegas is ranked #2 for worst cities for singles, according to Krqe.com. So I guess if you take the “-gle” off of single city, you get Sin City. No, but seriously, Las Vegas is the place where most people would like to tie the knot. Some of your favorite celebrities have secretly traveled to the Entertainment Capitol of the World to say their “I Do’s.” The list of celebrity marriages is endless including Joe Jonas and Game of Thrones actress Sophie Turner, Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, and Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck just to name a few.

Why Is Las Vegas Famous For Weddings

Maybe the reason why Sin City is famous for weddings is because of how easy it is to get married. According to Weddings.Vegas.com, Starting from the early 1930s Las Vegas didn’t have strict requirements such as blood tests or a waiting period in order to get married. Not to mention the glamour and lights of Vegas will always add a special element.

It’s also convenient to elope or renew your vows. In fact we even have drive-thru weddings here! maybe it’s the mixture and convenience that makes many celebrities want to get married here. Not to mention the privacy since the process can be quick, celebrities tend to take advantage of being able to be lowkey yet still have a memorable ceremony.

Just as easy as it is to tie the knot here in Las Vegas, It’s just as easy to get a divorce. So I suggest you don’t focus too much on a ceremony, but the commitment of the marriage.

14 Places Just Labeled Better Than Vegas To Propose In

Las Vegas is a great place to make a marriage proposal. But one list is suggesting there are 14 places that are even better!

Say it isn’t so! Our sweet Las Vegas is on the top of almost every list when it comes to getting married. But it turns out we’re not quite so popular when it comes to getting engaged. What? With the Paris Hotel, the Bellagio Fountains, even the beautiful landscape of Valley of Fire. How can there possibly be any place more worthy of a marriage proposal?

Well, turns out there are a lot of places more worthy of getting down on one knee. At least according to a recent study by glamira.com. Experts in customized jewelry, Glamira does a lot of business with people who are planning to propose. So they know a thing or two about the art of getting engaged.

For the study, Glamira analyzed a list of 134 romantic places in the world. Then they looked for hashtags of those places listed on both Instagram and TikTok. To see which places were the location of the most marriage proposals.

Now, if you live and breathe Las Vegas, it’s probably hard to imagine we are not even in the top five. Let alone barely making the top 15. However, there are a handful of places on this list that will make you think oh…yeah that’s valid. Others, though, are places you might not have even considered when it comes to popping the question.

Las Vegas landed at number 14 on the list of Most Romantic Places In The World To Propose, According To Social Media. And we barely beat out Los Angeles, who came in at number 15 with just 12 fewer hashtags than we had. Numbers 13 through 11, respectively, were Cappadocia (Turkey), Cancun (Mexico) and Charleston (South Carolina).

Here are the places that landed in the top 10. -Wendy Rush

A city so lovely, we designed an entire casino resort after it. One of two Roman cities on this list, Venice has a lot of beautiful landscapes to make the perfect backdrop for a proposal. It landed at number ten with 3,067 social media mentions.
9. Central Park, New York

Central Park is a wonder in and of itself. It’s a giant park in the middle of the most expensive real estate in the country. But that’s not all that makes it special. With its seasonal colors, The Pond, and the charming park benches, it’s no surprise so many people propose here. Central Park came in at number nine on the list, with 3,712 hashtag mentions on social media.
