Rock N Roll Wedding Chapel

KISS-themed wedding chapel inside the Rio hotel in Las Vegas, with character ministers

At this venue Wedding coordinator

The Rock N Roll Wedding Chapel is a KISS-themed chapel inside the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino, just off the Las Vegas Strip. It hosts weddings, vow renewals and commitment ceremonies, led by a cast of rock star look-alike ministers, and it is open seven days a week.

Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples

This is a place for couples who want their wedding loud, fun and nothing like a traditional church service. Ceremonies are personalized, the music is chosen around you, and you can pick the character who marries you. It suits couples who want a quick, joyful ceremony with a small group of friends, or a Las Vegas wedding with a story to tell afterward.

Ceremonies

Ministers include look-alikes of the four KISS members, along with characters such as Elvis, Billy Idol, Ozzy Osbourne and Beetlejuice. If you would rather keep it simple, a traditional minister is available too. Every package allows up to 30 guests. Packages build in layers. The first covers the chapel, a character minister, ceremony music, a digital recording and a certificate, plus fun extras like mini golf passes and a silk bouquet. Higher packages add a professional photographer with digital rights to the images, a photo session with KISS guitars and basses, and a live webcast so friends and family at home can watch.

Receptions and food

The chapel focuses on the ceremony itself and does not host receptions. Many couples carry on to a meal or drinks elsewhere in the Rio, which has several restaurants and bars, or head to the Strip for dinner. The KISS-themed mini golf included in the packages makes an easy follow-on for your guests.

Staying

The Rio is an all-suite hotel, so you and your guests can stay in the same building as the chapel and walk to the ceremony.

Getting there and the area

The chapel is in the Masquerade Village area on the casino level of the Rio, at 3700 West Flamingo Road. The hotel is a short drive or ride-share west of the Strip, and Harry Reid International Airport is around 15 minutes away. You will need a Nevada marriage license from the Clark County Marriage License Bureau downtown before the ceremony, and there is no residency requirement.
