Las Vegas has long been the go-to destination for spontaneous celebrity weddings — and just as often, for quickie divorces. From Britney Spears’ infamous 55-hour marriage to Jason Alexander in 2004 to the whirlwind unions of Hollywood’s golden age, Sin City chapels have witnessed some of the most talked-about nuptials in showbusiness history. This roundup revisits the Vegas weddings that ended, from the blink-and-you-missed-it ceremonies to the marriages that lasted just long enough to make headlines twice. Some couples, like Spears and Alexander, barely made it past the weekend. Others, including a string of rock stars and reality personalities, enjoyed months or years before the split. The appeal is obvious: no waiting period, no fuss, just a chapel, an Elvis impersonator and a marriage certificate. But as this list shows, what happens in Vegas does not always stay in Vegas — especially when divorce lawyers get involved. The city’s wedding industry continues to thrive, with thousands of couples tying the knot each year, celebrities included.
