Are you an Elvis fan and planning on tying the knot? Do you want to plan a wedding that pays tribute to the King of Rock and Roll? Then you have come to the right place. Here are some tips to help you plan an Elvis-themed wedding.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Step1
Travel to Vegas. Las Vegas is the ultimate destination for an Elvis wedding. There are several wedding chapels which offer Elvis-themed wedding packages. If you want to be married by Elvis, have Elvis escort you down the aisle or even be serenaded by dueling Elvises, Las Vegas is the place for you. The Graceland Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas is one of the first to offer Elvis weddings and offers several different packages from which to choose.
Step2
Get married in Graceland. Next to Elvis's famous home, Graceland, in Memphis, Tennessee, is the Chapel in the Woods which provides a beautiful, woodsy setting for an Elvis wedding. The landscaped grounds are ideal for an outdoor reception, and murals of Graceland Mansion make a great background for photos. The Chapel in the Woods also offers the use of memorial candles to offer a tribute to Elvis and an exclusive CD of Elvis's love songs.
Step3
Consider Hawaii. Celebrate your wedding day Elvis-style in Kauai, Hawaii, where the movie "Blue Hawaii" was filmed. Hawaii is a beautiful location for a destination wedding and a great place to plan an Elvis-themed wedding, in honor of one of his most famous movies. The use of traditional Hawaiian leis, decorative canoes or, even, a Hawaiian guitarist playing Elvis music can help set the scene.
Step4
Do it yourself. Besides planning a wedding in a location made famous by Elvis, you can also incorporate Elvis elements into your own wedding wherever it may be. From using Elvis love songs as a backdrop to the ceremony to hiring an Elvis impersonator as entertainment, the options are endless. The important thing is that you and your hunk of burning love plan an Elvis-themed wedding that suits your interests and budget the best.
