Say "I Do" with Pancakes: Denny’s Hosts Free Valentine’s Day Weddings in Las Vegas
Lovebirds looking for a unique and quirky place to tie the knot this Valentine’s Day should look no further than Denny’s. The beloved diner chain is offering free weddings on February 14 at its very own Denny’s Wedding Chapel, located at 450 Fremont Street in Las Vegas. That’s right—couples can exchange vows over pancakes and bacon in what is sure to be a memorable occasion.
Free Weddings: The Denny’s Experience
On Valentine’s Day, couples can get hitched from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. PT. Whether you’re planning to reserve a spot in advance or if spontaneity strikes and you decide to walk in, Denny’s welcomes all love seekers (subject to availability). But don’t forget one crucial item: a marriage license! Even in the wedding capital of the world, some paperwork still needs to be sorted.
Denny’s makes sure that the wedding experience packs a punch. The package includes a rock ‘n roll-style officiant who will guide you through the ceremony, along with music and a keepsake certificate to commemorate the special day. It’s not your average wedding; it’s Denny’s-style!
The Toast-nuptial Agreement
As part of the wedding festivities, couples must sign the "Toast-nuptial" agreement—essentially a fun promise to stay together at least until the next morning. In exchange, newlyweds receive an "Over-easy Overnight" kit filled with the diner’s very own "Slammy" pajamas, eye masks, and pillowcases. It’s whimsical, a bit ridiculous, and undeniably fun—exactly what you’d expect from a Denny’s experience.
Breakfast in Bed—The Morning After
Here comes the best part. If couples manage to stay together until February 15, they have the opportunity to post a #DennysToastNup tag on social media alongside a "just married" morning-after picture. What do they get for this delightful social media activity? A special breakfast in bed, courtesy of Denny’s! Imagine sharing your first meal as a married couple and indulging in those classic pancakes and syrup, all while cozied up in your special pajamas.
Embracing the Quirkiness of Vegas
Ellie Doty, senior vice president and chief brand officer at Denny’s, encapsulates the charm of this unique offering: "Vegas weddings are novel, but a Denny’s Vegas wedding is iconic." She emphasizes that the diner is embracing the fun of the city while also playing on their long tradition of offering free ceremonies on Valentine’s Day. And let’s face it—good food (like breakfast) is a key ingredient in any successful marriage!
Love is in the Air… and on the Menu
Denny’s isn’t alone in creating memorable Valentine’s Day experiences this year. Other restaurants, like White Castle and Red Lobster, are also getting in on the love fest with their own unique offerings. From intimate dinners to kissing booths, it’s clear that Cupid is having a busy day.
In the end, whether you celebrate love with a candlelit dinner or by saying "I do" with pancakes, the goal is the same: to create lasting memories that keep the flame of romance alive.
So if you’re in Las Vegas on February 14 and looking for a whimsical way to celebrate your love, consider making Denny’s your wedding destination. Because, after all, who wouldn’t want their love story to include a side of hash browns?
