Honeymoon in Vegas

Honeymoon in Vegas is a 1992 American romantic comedy film written and directed by Andrew Bergman and starring James Caan, Nicolas Cage and Sarah Jessica Parker.

His girlfriend Betsy wants to get married and start a family, and he proposes a quick Las Vegas marriage.

Before the wedding, however, a wealthy professional gambler, Tommy Korman, notices Betsy's striking resemblance to his beloved late wife, Donna.

He arranges a crooked poker game that prompts Jack to borrow $65,000 after being dealt a straight flush, only to lose to the gambler's higher straight flush; Tommy offers to erase the debt in exchange for spending the weekend with Betsy.

He joins a group about to depart for Las Vegas but discovers mid-flight that they are the Utah chapter of the "Flying Elvises" – a skydiving team of Elvis impersonators.

Jack and Betsy are married in a small Las Vegas chapel with the Flying Elvises as guests.
