June In Bloom

June, named for the Roman goddess, Juno, was dedicated to marriage and child-bearing. For those reasons and the many options of places to be wed in June, by a lake or on a beach, in a park, in a church, sunny and warm days, makes us want to be outside for events.

June is the most popular month for weddings, over 10 percent of weddings are in June. Marry in June when roses grow, over land and sea you’ll go. Fresh flowers are abundant for the bride and party. And love is in the air.

June is a wonderful time for a wedding. Most brides want to wear beautiful, light-weight dresses and veils. Gentle breezes will make these dresses and veils float carelessly, like in a fairy tale, ethereal.

What city in the United States hosts the most weddings? Las Vegas, Nevada, is the top destination. Why? You can apply on line for a marriage license or stop in at the Clark County Courthouse, open from 8 a.m. to midnight, 365 days a year, cost for the license is $102.

No blood test or waiting period, just stop in at one of the many wedding chapels and walk-in’s are welcome. So many wedding chapels all over Las Vegas, weddings start at $59, some even offer discount packages.

Regardless of the location or date, even after those wedding pictures have begun to fade, there are still some lasting memories of your special day. So, best wishes for those who choose this month to wed and to all the other couples who once stood and said, “I do.”
