    Casinos.com Launches Free Las Vegas Wedding Giveaway Amid Historic Decline in U.S. Marriages

    LAS VEGAS – As marriage rates continue to decline across the United States, Casinos.com is launching a nationwide free Las Vegas wedding giveaway valued at up to $10,000 this February, during National Wedding Month, offering one couple a fully planned wedding experience while drawing attention to the growing barriers facing couples who want to marry.

     

    According to the U.S. Census Bureau, fewer than half of U.S. households were married couples in 2025, reflecting a broader cultural shift as Americans increasingly delay or forgo marriage amid rising costs, financial pressure and changing social norms. That trend is also being felt locally in Southern Nevada. In January 2026, Clark County reported an 8 percent year-over-year decline in marriage licenses during its annual State of Wedding Tourism presentation.

    By centering the initiative around removing cost and planning complexity, the giveaway is intended to address two of the most common reasons couples postpone marriage. Las Vegas, long known as the wedding capital of the world, serves as a symbolic setting for the effort, reinforcing the idea that getting married does not need to be overwhelming or out of reach.

     

    The free giveaway is open to U.S. residents ages 21 and older, excluding New York and Florida. One winning couple will be announced by Sunday, March 15, and paired with a Las Vegas wedding planner to coordinate their ceremony. Additional details regarding the wedding package and final prize value will be announced later this month.
