Star Couples Who Got Married in Las Vegas

Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra got married in 2018 in multiple, extravagant ceremonies. Kevin Jonas and his bride, the former Danielle Deleasa, opted for private, family-centric nuptials in 2009. As for the middle Jonas Brother brother? Joe Jonas got hitched to Game Of Thrones actress Sophie Turner in Las Vegas — and Sin City notched its latest celebrity wedding. l

No matter if they’re drunk in love, or, like Nicolas Cage, circa 2019, imbibing “to the point of intoxication,” marriage-minded celebrities have been walking down the aisles of Vegas’s 24-hour wedding chapels and extravagant hotels for a long, long time.

Some stars wear breathtaking gowns, and some wear jeans and a T-shirt — like Britney Spears did when she said “I do” in 2004. Some couples are Hollywood A-listers — like Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, and Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere (Chicago) — and some are reality stars from various seasons of The Bachelor.

Some of these marriages flame out fast — Cage’s 2019 union with Erica Koike lasted four days; Spears’ marriage to a childhood friend lasted 55 hours.

But other made-in-Vegas marriages have been built to last: Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, and Leah Remini and Angelo Pagán are among the Sin City alums who are all still going strong.

Rocker-turned-Las Vegas legend Elvis Presley helped make the Nevada gambling mecca a wedding destination for stars — and non-stars — when he wed Priscilla Beaulieu at the Aladdin Hotel. Vogue would go onto call the 1967 ceremony the “ultimate Las Vegas wedding.”

If you’re so inclined, you can enjoy an ultimate Vegas wedding, too. Most of the Las Vegas facilities and chapels that have hosted celeb weddings are also open to non-celebrities — provided, that is, the venues are still standing. The Aladdin, for instance, was leveled in 1998, about 25 years after the Presleys’ marriage ended in divorce.

Here’s a look at star couples who, for better and for worse, have rocked Las Vegas weddings.

Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner

The ceremony at Vegas’ famed Little White Chapel was live-streamed via Instagram by DJ-slash-social media influencer Diplo, who captured the couple exchanging ring pops in front of an Elvis impersonator. Country duo Dan + Shay were also in attendance and serenaded the newlyweds with a sweet song.

Britney Spears and Jason Alexander

Britney Spears wed a childhood friend, Jason Alexander (not that one), at the Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas on Jan. 3, 2004. The marriage was annulled 55 hours, or two days, later.

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos

This couple met when they were starring on the daytime soap All My Children. They eloped eloped in Vegas on May 1, 1996. 

Shia LaBeouf and Mia Goth

Though Shia LaBeouf live-streamed his 2016 Vegas wedding to Mia Goth, the official Twitter feed of Clark County, Nevada, which has jurisdiction over Vegas weddings, noted that there was no marriage license filed for the celebrity couple, and referred to the nuptials as a “commitment ceremony.” Regardless, the couple got married for real at some point, because they had a very real divorce in 2018.

“Stone Cold” Steve Austin and Debra Marshall

The pro wrestlers were married at the Little While Wedding Chapel in 2000, but the relationship didn’t last. Steve Austin and Debra Marshall were divorced in 2003.

Courtney Stodden and Doug Hutchison

Courtney Stodden was just 16 at her 2011 Las Vegas wedding to 51-year-old Doug Hutchison. (Stodden had her mother’s permission — and that’s good enough for a Las Vegas wedding license.) The future Celebrity Big Brother star and Hutchison separated in 2017; Stodden filed for divorce in 2018. 

Leah Remini and Angelo Pagán

VH1 filmed Leah Remini’s wedding to Pagán, an actor like his King of Queens bride, in 2003. The couple was married at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas.

Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton

After dating for two months, Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie eloped in Vegas in 2000; the couple wore jeans and tees. The marriage lasted two years.

Christina Milian and The Dream

In 2009, singer Christinia Milian and the rapper born Terius Nash had a midnight elopement at the Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas. According to TMZ, Milian rented her wedding dress, shoes, and veil all for $200. What a steal!

Jesse Csincsak and Ann Lueders

Who says the Bachelor franchise doesn’t produce lasting relationships? Jesse Csincsak (The Bachelorette, Season 4) and Ann Lueders (The Bachelor, Season 13) were married in 2010 at the Rumor Hotel in Las Vegas. (And, no, they didn’t actually meet on a Bachelor show, but close enough!)

Melanie Brown and Stephen Belafonte

Jon Bon Jovi and Dorothea Hurley

Marriage has been a real bed of roses for the Bon Jovi frontman and his wife, the former Dorothea Hurley. The rocker married his high-school sweetheart in 1989 at the Graceland Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas.

Nicolas Cage and Erika Koike

The Oscar-winning actor’s March 2019 Vegas wedding began and ended as you’d expect in a Hollywood farce, a la Cage’s Honeymoon in Vegas. Cage and Koike were, per subsequent court filings, “drinking to the point of intoxication” prior to their union at Las Vegas’ Bellagio Hotel.  Four days later, Cage sought an annulment, citing fraud. 

Corey Feldman and Vanessa Marcil

It’s never a bad time to get married — even at 7 a.m., which is when Carmen Electra and basketball star Dennis Rodman tied the knot in 1998, at The Little Chapel of the Flowers in Las Vegas. Then again, maybe it’s not such a great idea: The couple split just months later. 

Clint Eastwood and Dina Ruiz

Hollywood icon Clint Eastwood married Ruiz, TV reporter, in a private ceremony at his Las Vegas home in 1996. Ruiz filed for divorce in 2013. 

Elvis and Priscilla Presley

Nicky Hilton and Todd Meister

Paris Hilton’s sister tied the knot in 2004 at the aptly named Vegas wedding chapel, Vegas Weddings. Then 20, the hotel heiress closed the books on the marriage after three months. 

Sinead O’Connor and Barry Herridge

Michael Caine and Shakira Baksh

It was love at first sight for Oscar-winner Michael Caine, who first saw his wife-to-be in a TV coffee ad. The two eventually married at the Candlelight Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas in 1973. As of 2019, the couple has been married for 46 years.

Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith

The Hollywood stars married twice — but only once in Vegas, in 1976. That union, their first, ended in less than a year. (Their second, non-Vegas marriage also ended in divorce, but lasted about seven years.) 

Michael Jordan and Juanita Vanoy

Frank Sinatra and Mia Farrow

The 50-year-old crooner married the 21-year-old actress (Rosemary’s Baby) in 1966 at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. They were married for two years. (And, sorry, the Sands was leveled in 1996, so it’s not taking any more bookings.)

Evel Knievel and Krystal Kennedy

In true Knievel fashion, the daredevil arrived to his 1999 Las Vegas wedding to Krystal Kennedy on a motorcycle. The couple was married in front of the fountains at Caesar’s Palace, where Knievel jumped — and crashed — to fame in 1968.
