A Little White Wedding Chapel
The 1951 chapel that invented the drive-through wedding, with $150 ceremonies in the chapel, a pink Cadillac, a gazebo or the Tunnel of Love window.

What makes it distinctive
Open since 1951, this is the chapel most people picture when they hear the words Vegas wedding. In 1991 the owner watched a disabled couple struggle to get out of their car and had a wall knocked through to create a drive-up window; it opened on Valentine's Day and became the Tunnel of Love Drive Thru. Today the same $150 ceremony can happen in the original chapel, in a stationary pink Cadillac, under the outdoor gazebo or at the drive-through window, and the larger Chapel Amore takes groups up to 60. Elvis tribute packages and a Ride With The King option, where you roll through the tunnel in the Cadillac while Elvis sings, sit on top of that.
Who it suits
This is the one for couples who want the famous address and a quick, legal ceremony without a production around it. The published $150 entry price is real, but treat it as the floor: the $60 minister fee, the 19% surcharge and the $100 Friday, Saturday or premium-day charge apply before you add a single photo. The drive-through is not a joke option. It was built for a couple who could not easily leave their car, and it is still the most practical format in the city for a guest who cannot transfer out of a vehicle. Bringing your own photographer costs nothing here, which changes the math against chapels that charge for it.

Starting price and what it buys
Four ceremony formats are published at $150 each: the original chapel, the pink Cadillac, the gazebo and the Tunnel of Love drive-thru. Each includes up to 10 guests, traditional music, a religious or civil ceremony, a witness if needed and a certificate holder. Chapel Amore is $450, Elvis Tribute is $495, and Ride With The King is $695. Fridays, Saturdays and other premium days add $100. The chapel's premium-date list also includes holidays and palindrome dates such as 11/11/26. The same figures were published when we first checked on August 27, 2026.
Fees and exclusions to price in
- Minister fee: $60 added to the package on the package pages; the FAQ describes it as a suggested $40 to $60 gratuity, so ask which applies
- 19% surcharge on all balances, covering tips, filing and recording fees, coordination, set-up and card fees
- Add $100 for Fridays, Saturdays and other premium days
- Add $100 to take the chapel or Cadillac packages from 10 guests to 20
- Photos are not included in the $150 packages; photo sessions are sold as add-ons with no published prices
- Nevada sales tax added to products and services as applicable
- All amounts paid are non-refundable; balance due 14 days before the ceremony; one complimentary reschedule before that date
- Foreign-language officiant from $150
Photography and outside photographers
The FAQ answers the outside-photographer question directly: yes, you may bring your own photographer for no additional charge, provided you both review the chapel's policies agreement. You or a guest may also livestream on a phone. No photos are included in the $150 packages, and photo sessions are not sold without a ceremony booking.
Accessibility, weather and permits
- The FAQ states the chapel is wheelchair accessible, and the drive-through exists specifically for guests who cannot easily leave a vehicle
- Weather backup for the gazebo is not published. Contact the venue for current details.
- Guest counts are enforced for fire code, so a surprise plus-one can be turned away
- Vehicle size limits for the drive-through are not published; ask before booking a stretch limo or a rental van
