Getting married is as much a tradition in Las Vegas as slot machines and buffets. But when the urge to merge comes in the wee hours, you'll have to wait.
The county government said that starting next week, its marriage license bureau will no longer be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Citing budget constraints, county officials said the graveyard shift is being scrapped. Would-be brides and grooms will be able to apply for licenses only between 8 a.m. and midnight, seven days a week.
Officials told the Las Vegas Sun that there's really not much demand for marriage licenses during the overnight hours. Fewer than 4 percent of licenses are issued on that shift, city officials said.
Among them was a license issued to Britney Spears. However, the marriage was annulled after two days.

I was married in Vegas about 3 weeks ago. WE reside in California, I, the wife had all of the assets prior to marriage, house, car, etc. Although we live in California, we were married in Vegas, Nevada. Is he entitled to 50/50 as if we were married in California?
