Las Vegas, America’s number on spot for neon lights, gambling, themed hotels, and spontaneous weddings, recently released a new ad — and it’s giving everyone a lot of feelings.
Titled Now and Then, the ad follows a lesbian couple in Sin City. What starts as simply a fun weekend getaway, however, quickly becomes a lot more…
Warning: You may need tissues.

‘We knew we’d get married the night we met. We met here,’ one woman says as they stand watching a water show on the Vegas strip.
The ad shows them enjoying their time together, falling more and more in love.
From exploring the surrounding desert to kissing under the bright lights, it’s a beautiful montage.
However, the other woman is hesitant to get married because her parents aren’t there and she’s not sure they approve of her life.
But what’s a weekend in Vegas without some surprises?
Comments on YouTube have been generally positive and enthusiastic. Many people want the short ad story turned into a full-blown movie.
