Josh Brolin has married his wife Kathryn all over again, and he did it the Las Vegas way. The couple renewed their wedding vows at the Little White Wedding Chapel, with an Elvis Presley impersonator in the room.
The two shared photos from the day on Instagram this weekend. Friends and family were with them, and so were their two young daughters.
Elvis and cowboy boots
An Elvis impersonator in a white rhinestone suit led the ceremony. In one photo he looks on as the couple kiss.
Kathryn wore a white dress with burgundy cowboy boots. Josh kept it simple in a black shirt and jeans. Under the photos, the caption read: “Vegas, Vows and Metallicaaaaa baby.”
That last word was no accident. Metallica are playing a run of shows at the Sphere in Las Vegas right now, and the couple went to see the band on the same trip.
Ten years married
Josh and Kathryn first got married on 24 September 2016 in North Carolina. They marked their tenth anniversary this September with posts for each other on Instagram. Kathryn called hers “10 Years of Us”, and Josh wrote that after ten years they were “still at it”.
A few weeks later, they decided one wedding was not enough.
A long career on the big screen
Brolin is 58. Many fans first saw him as a teenager in The Goonies in 1985. These days a whole new group of movie fans know him as Gurney Halleck in the Dune films.
A chapel with a famous drive-through
The Little White Wedding Chapel is one of the best known places to get married in Las Vegas. It even has a drive-through tunnel, where couples can say “I do” without getting out of the car.
Our take
We love this one. A lot of famous couples throw a huge party for a big anniversary. The Brolins picked a small chapel and let Elvis run the show, with their kids right there. They also fit a Metallica show into the same trip. That sounds like a lot more fun to us.
Ten years in, they still look like they enjoy each other’s company. That is worth celebrating, with or without rhinestones.
