Couples who were married at the Garden of Love Wedding may want to check and see if there marriage is still valid. I was channel surfing last night when I came across a report on some “celebrity entertainment” show that said that said a large number of weddings performed at the Chapel of Love may be null an void. Apparently Chapel of Love employees were forging witness signatures onto wedding licenses.

The wedding business has become so competitive over the past several years that the competing chapels will say and do “almost” anything to get couples married in their chapel.

It has gotten so bad that ministers from competing chapels were actually ordered to be placed under arrest by Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman. Goodman had them brought to his office where he read them their rights.

Apparently couples are testifying at hearings in the city council chambers about heavy hand techniques to get them into the chapels. My wife and I were married at the Monte Carlo in Vegas and we remember having to run the gauntlet of wedding chapel recruiters when we went to the Clark County Clerk’s office for our marriage license.

After hearings at the City Council, The Garden of Love’s tactics were deemed to be so aggressive that last week the city of  Las Vegas decided to revoke the wedding chapel’s license. The owners are in the process of appealing the decision. In the meantime, if you were married at the Garden of Love you may want find out if you are indeed legal hitched.
