Definitely the right choice
Posted by HeatherSch on 11/19/2009
When we decided to go ahead and get married in Vegas, we didn't want to spend a lot on the ceremony, but I also didn't want a place that would be totally cheesy or trashy. The Graceland Storybook Chapel was perfect.
The prices are reasonable. The complimentary limo service was great - the limo looked new and was shiny and very clean, inside and out. It also had very discreet initials on the side window rather than a big glaring advertisement like you see on some of the other chapel's limos. The chapel itself is very pretty and once the doors are closed you get virtually no noise pollution.
The staff was fantastic and everyone from the booking agent to the limo driver to the minister and photographer were friendly and helpful. They made sure we knew exactly what we needed to do from the first step to the last, so there were no awkward moments or times when we wondered if everything was taken care of or worried that we might forget something.
The ceremony was brief, but it was in no way lacking in respect or meaning. I had worried that it would be cheesy and feel too rushed (it is Vegas), but those fears were entirely unfounded. The minister did a great job of not giving the impression that this was his twenty millionth ceremony or that we were just names on a piece of paper, and he performed the ceremony with feeling and respect. I actually ended up in tears, and I NEVER cry over things like that, so it was especially striking to me how special he made it for us and that we were able to make it for each other.
The photographer was very friendly and took a bunch of pics. I usually hate pictures of myself and feel lucky if there's one I don't totally loathe, but when I saw them afterward they were all pretty good and I was happy to have the ones I got.
If you want just a little bit of fuss, a short but meaningful ceremony and to save your money for the important bits- the honeymoon!- I definitely recommend this chapel. Wonderful experience.

A memorable Las Vegas Wedding!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by mrsohgal on 06/29/2007
I would highly recommend Graceland Wedding Chapel to those who chose to marry in Las Vegas. The Chapel is very quaint, but pretty and historial looking. It is set in RIGHT downtown! I made the reservations months in advance and when I showed up it was like I just talked to them yesterday! The flowers were pretty and the photographer was awesome! The minister was from the BUCKEYE state which was a plus to my husband and I! Our limo driver Justin was just wonderful and was even early to our hotel to pick us up! It is a quick ceremony - IN & OUT so if you are looking for a long drawn out affair, this is not the place. It was very pretty and we have great pictures and great memories. The are awesome and a great price.

New Years Eve Ceremony
Posted by AndreaMegliola on 06/17/2003
My husband Tom and I were married at Graceland Wedding Chapel on December 31, 2000! It was an awesome and unforgettable experience! Our wedding was filmed by a local news crew and was on the evening news that New Years Eve - strangers even recognized us around town after the broadcast! It was an experience of a lifetime!

vow renewal
Posted by lizziebruin on 06/17/2003
My husband and I renewed our marriage vows for our 5th year anniversary at the Graceland Wedding Chapel in front of Elvis. They were great! Our Elvis spoke beautifully. He seemed to really speak from his heart. Many of our guests were teary-eyed! I would recommend this place 100%!

Elvis remarried us!

We just watched our video of our 15th anniversary vow renewal ceremony performed on 12/26/02 by Elvis impersonator Brendan Paul At Graceland Chapel, we are howling with delight! What a great experience! The Chapel and Elvis Impersonator far outperformed our expectations! Our 16 guests loved it and we have to say they made our special day truly memorable. Would recommend the Elvis Imp. & Graceland Chapel to all, Viva Las Vegas.
Have Fun- Liz and Tony Bryant

Elvis lives!! He performed our ceremony!
Posted by Heather_Hughes on 01/05/2003
This was just a fantastic experience. My husband and I got married on Okinawa and have wanted a ceremony by Elvis for a long time. For our 10th anniversary we went to Las Vegas, had the limo and all. If you are going to do this go all the way and get Elvis, the limo, video, pictures, etc. The cake was delicious!! Thanks for helping to make our 10th anniversary a memorable one!
