LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Judging by the lines outside of the Clark County Marriage License Bureau today, Las Vegas remains one of the top cities for weddings.

It looks like couples are flocking to Las Vegas to tie the knot this Valentine's Day.

The Clark County clerk said they issued almost 500 marriage licenses yesterday and more than 400 the day before.

"We had a great week last year, Valentine's Day in 2020, but this year, it looks like we're going to almost double what we did last year," said Clark County Clerk Lynn Marie Goya.

Many of the local chapels are offering socially distant and outdoor ceremonies.
