Vegas license bureau to cease overnight marriages

If you feel like a quick trip to Las Vegas to elope, you'll have to do it during the daytime.

As of Aug. 30, the Marriage License Bureau will no longer service marriage licenses from midnight to 8 a.m.

This is more a cost-saving move for taxpayers, who are expected to save $200,000 per year from the closing. Last year, Las Vegas issued 122,259 licenses but only 4 percent came from the midnight hour.

You can still marry in the middle of the night, you'll just have to wait until daylight to pick up your license.

We recommend installing slot machines in the chapel to fund the graveyard shift.
