And not only do average people choose Vegas as their preferred destination, but it has also been the favorite location for many celebrities to get married.

Some of the historic weddings that took place in the 1960s include actress Mia Farrow’s marriage to Ol’ Blue Eyes himself, Frank Sinatra.

The couple married in 1966 and were divorced in 1968. Betty White who married Allen Ludden a few years earlier, and also at the Sands, is another famous wedding from the 60s. This Golden Girl married the popular game-show host in 1963. In 1965 Judy Garland married Mark Herron. These are just a few of the famous Vegas weddings that have occurred in the city and these as well as the numerous others are a celebrated part of the city’s history.
