Vegas

Las Vegas, Nevada is the city of one-armed bandits - and also, the quickie wedding. NPR's Jacki Lyden reports on what some have called America's Lourdes of Love. She meets people of all ages and from all parts of the country who have chosen a Vegas theme wedding as the best way to start life with the one they love, or at least the one they end up with at the altar.
