Get hitched Vegas style at Sexpo

The Sexpo has announced that couples of any persuasion or preference will now be able to tie the knot at its Cape Town exhibition at the Cape Town International Convention Centre from 8 - 11 May. The Sexpo Chapel of Love will offer daily commitment ceremonies or, for couples booking in advance, the opportunity to get hitched ‘Vegas style'.

“Whether couples wish to commit to one another, tie the knot or simply renew their vows, the Sexpo Chapel of Love will be available – complete with Elvis impersonator – to deliver a somewhat different, slightly naughty relationship experience,” says Sexpo organiser Silas Howarth. He says that the idea struck him while watching yet another celebrity quickie wedding report on television. “There is a certain glamour, a naughty excitement and an impulsive aspect to committing Vegas style,” and, he says, “it's really sexy.”

The Sexpo Chapel of Love will be available for all types of commitment ceremonies, says Howarth, and encourages couples who visit the event to give it a shot. “No matter your preference or persuasion; committing to the person you love has no ‘right place or right time', instead, it's about passion, the heat of the moment and the connection between two people. It's about getting hitched at Sexpo Cape Town.”

Sexpo Cape Town is anticipated to be the largest event in the threesome of Sexpos. Last year's Johannesburg event attracted record numbers with Durban coming in an impressive close second. Organisers expect Sexpo Cape Town to outperform both predecessors. “Cape Town's event will see up to 35% more exhibitors and it promises to be naughtier than anything we've done before.”

Miss Nude Australia Arianna Starr returns as event hostess, while celebrity penile artist ‘Pricasso' will be in attendance, showing off some of his artful strokes.
With the largest display of sexy and naughty goods ever under one roof, there are plenty of things to make a post-Sexpo honeymoon one to remember.

Pre-booked wedding packages at The Sexpo Chapel of Love include VIP treatment, a photographer to capture the event, Sexpo Commitment Certificates and couples will receive fantastic honeymoon gifts following the ceremony, with four lucky couples receiving a champers and seafood dinner for four at the exclusive Harbour Lights restaurant in Gordon's Bay, exclusive lingerie and more. Couples can also capture the special occasion with live wedding portraits by penile artist Pricasso. “We encourage partners to write their own vows to one another – nobody says I love you quite like lovers do,” says Howarth.

Couples who wish to book their wedding or who require additional information about the Sexpo Chapel of Love should mail, hitched@sexpo.co.za.
