It’s a day like any other in front of the clark county marriage bureau, in Las Vegas. Couples are constantly leaving the building, smiles on their lips and marriage licenses in hand. Head to one of the many “chapels” in the area, where they will say yes for life. Not far away, a look-alike of Elvis, the local star who takes part in certain ceremonies, strolls around in a black shirt under the blazing July sun. He drives past a car decorated with the words “Just married” and pink balloons.
