A Late night elopement at A Little White Chapel

Las Vegas at night has a magic all its own—neon lights buzzing, the Strip alive, and that thrill that you’re doing something unforgettable. This late-night elopement at A Little White Wedding Chapel on 35mm film is exactly why I love photographing weddings here.

We kicked things off under the chapel’s glowing neon signs. A Little White Wedding Chapel is an iconic Las Vegas elopement spot, and at night it feels even more electric. The Tunnel of Love drive-thru, the flashing hearts, the hum of the Strip—it’s classic Vegas romance. Shooting on Kodak Portra 400 meant all those neon colors popped beautifully. I also brought along a fisheye lens for some fun, wide shots that gave their photos that playful, retro Vegas energy.

After their vows and some casual shots outside the chapel, we took a Rolls Royce (Royal Rides, LLC) back to the Encore hotel, where we finished the grand celebration.

Their Encore suite was the perfect after-party setting. They popped a bottle of champagne, jumped on the bed in full wedding attire, and even cut into a little cake right there in the room. No formal reception, no stress—just pure joy and laughter. Those hotel-room moments are some of my favorites to capture because they’re relaxed and real. The film grain and warm tones made everything feel even more nostalgic and intimate.

A few favorite moments:

  • Their kiss under the chapel’s neon sign, captured on 35mm film.
  • A playful late-night fisheye shot with the chapel's neon signs behind them.
  • Champagne being popped
  • Sneaking bites of cake on the bed like two kids in love.

If you’re dreaming about your own Las Vegas elopement, here are some tips:

  • Nighttime is magic—embrace the neon glow for photos that feel so Vegas.
  • Portra 400 film handles bright neon and low light beautifully.
  • Mix some creative shots (like with a fisheye lens) with candid hotel moments for a complete story.
  • Remember: elopements can be whatever you want. Skip the rules and just celebrate your love your way.

Shooting on film makes these nights even more special. It slows everything down and makes every photo feel like a little piece of art.
