Recently, a happy couple made headlines with their nuptials when they had their Las Vegas wedding at a Denny’s. When we saw the news, we were thrilled to recognize them as customers who ordered custom poker chips from us for their ceremony in Sin City. It looks like it was a beautiful ceremony complete with beautiful flowers and plenty of champagne. We loved their creative use of favors and locations so much that we looked into other unique wedding ceremonies.

What do you do if you love a good bargain as much as you love your fiancé? You get married in a 99 Cents Only store! That’s what this happy couple did back in 2009. Their local store held an unbeatable special – get married on 09/09/09 for $0.99. The décor consisted entirely of items available for sale within the store, and a total of 9 married couples took their vows in the store that day. We think they scored a major deal!

Some ultra-adventurous couples are ready to fall in love, literally. Companies are cropping up offering the opportunity to say “I do” in free-fall. During the ceremony, the duo and their witnesses are in the rear of a modified cargo plane, which flies at an altitude of around 24,000 feet. The specially-trained pilots fly the plane in U-shaped patterns – every dip results in zero gravity weightlessness lasting for 20-30 seconds. Sounds like the perfect ceremony for couples willing to take the ultimate plunge!
