Taco Bell Chapel Elopement | Las Vegas Strip Wedding
This Taco Bell Chapel wedding was a literal dream come true, and Sam and Cade have quite a story that finally led to them getting married.
It all began in 6th grade when these two first dated. It was a short-lived relationship, though, as Cade definitely dumped Sam over AIM. I mean, the two have different stories on how it played out, but I’m just repeating what I was told. Sam later moved away to live la vida loca, but they eventually reconnected on Tinder a few years ago. She told me, “We joke that we always knew and just needed some time apart to grow.”
They got engaged and planned their whole wedding for November 2020. About two weeks prior, they ended up having to postpone it to late 2021. However, they didn’t want to wait to be married. Their original venue offered them a March 2021 date and even though it would still be too soon to hold the big reception, why wait on getting married?
“We’ve always said Taco Bell Vegas was our back up,” Sam said. “We never thought it would actually come to it, but we are excited for the fun adventure and unique story behind our wedding day.”
We started the day getting ready with Sam’s closest ladies at the MGM Grand. Cade sent his mom with a bouquet to deliver to Sam because he wanted her to have fresh florals for their wedding day, rather than the pre-made bouquet she had planned for. Talk about a sweet moment. Pretty soon, Cade got all fancied up, and we had to stealthily get Sam into her limo without Cade seeing her. We pulled off on the side of the Strip for Sam to have a sweet moment with her father, lots of tears were shed, but pretty soon, it was time to get some tacos! (oh, and get married)
After all the fun and festivities included with a Taco Bell elopement, we jetted off around the Strip and over to Fremont Street for some super fun and joyful photos! I got to show these two all of my favorite Las Vegas photo spots, and we all had a super fun time making memories together!
The two headed off to meet back up with their family and celebrate for the rest of the night, and then next thing ya know, they were off to their honeymoon!
Major congrats to these two! So glad that 6th grade break-up didn’t cause too much heartache. 😉
