Out of the more than 40 million visitors every year, about 4% of those people are getting married or renewing their vows.
Wedding chapels are shifting into overdrive to accommodate the surge of people they'll see this weekend ahead of Valentine's Day on Tuesday.
"Typically from years past the 12th, 13th, 14th we do about 400 each day. So, over the five days I'm hoping that we're going to do 1500 to 1700," said Paula Cook, the Supervisor for the Marriage License Bureau

The Marriage License Bureau issues more than 80,000 marriage licenses every single year, dubbing Las Vegas as the "Wedding Capital of the World."
