“They all had iPhones, taking pictures and videos from every angle,” he continues. “I don’t know if they were the friends or their social media team. They filmed everything from the time they walked in, to the time they walked out. The vows, the kiss, the rose bouquet toss, the dancing. I usually take pictures for the chapel but they wanted to handle it all themselves.”
Frierson also said it was “very important to them” to have “the Vegas experience” and noted that the ceremony was rather quick, taking about half an hour to complete.
“They had a good time,” he added. “They just romanced and got married. Elvis performed the ceremony. They showed a lot love and had a lot of fun.”
