Australian couples who are engaged to be married (or are planning to 'put a ring on it') are invited to share stories of how they met their partners as part of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority's "How I Met My Partner" competition.
It could have happened while climbing a volcano on an overseas holiday, during a mishap in the car park of a shopping centre, or a disaster that required the rescue of a mobile phone after it was dropped down a storm water drain... Everyone has a unique story about how they met their partner and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority want to know yours!
Launched in December "How I Met My Partner" gives couples planning to marry the opportunity to win a six-night Las Vegas honeymoon. There is a small catch however; the betrothed couple must be prepared to marry in Sydney on February 14 2011 and then depart for Las Vegas the following day.
More than 100,000 wedding licenses are issued every year in Las Vegas, making it the official wedding capital of the world. The two most popular wedding days in Las Vegas are New Year's Eve and Valentine's Day, which are also two of the world's most popular days for marriage proposals.
With Sydney's population of engaged couples set to explode after New Year's Eve, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority thought it was the perfect time to showcase Las Vegas as the ultimate wedding and honeymoon destination, while inspiring Sydney singles in their search to find love at the same time.
