Las Vegas wedding chapels are famous for having Elvis Presley-themed weddings, but the licensing company that controls the name and image of the late music and pop culture icon is telling the chapels to stop using Elvis in the ceremonies.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that Authentic Brands Group sent cease-and-desist letters in early May to multiple chapels.
AP reports that Las Vegas’ wedding industry generates $2 billion a year and that officials say Elvis-themed weddings make up a significant number of the ceremonies performed.
