This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of Elvis Presley’s marriage to Priscilla Beaulieu. And it happened in Las Vegas.It was May 1, 1967. Elvis was thirty-two. Priscilla was twenty-one. They had met eight years before. He was in the army in Germany, and her father was stationed on a military base there. Eventually, she moved into Graceland. Elvis proposed just before Christmas 1966. Then the planning began. They wanted the wedding to be private, and it was. But this was Elvis Presley, and his manager was Tom Parker. There was bound to be some glitz.
