Britney Spears Las Vegas Wedding Adventure..."Vegas and Weddings: A marriage made in heaven", article by Steve Friess, Special for USA TODAY. Quoted our very own Jamie Richards:
"But the norm is a bit different, several chapel owners say. A wedding like Spears' — she married a childhood friend on the spur of the moment — is unusual. Most involve couples with some romantic relationship and are planned at least a few days or weeks in advance", says Jamie Richards, owner of the Viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapel.
"I hate it when something like (the Spears wedding) happens, because it makes it sound like Vegas weddings are just a dime a dozen," he says. "Yes, they're easy to do, but they're not meaningless. The people who are in this business are still in this business to marry people. It's not a joke." Read the whole article here.
