Las Vegas has seen some cheesy weddings over the years, but this is a whole new level.

Starting Thursday, couples can get married by a hologram of Cheetos mascot Chester Cheetah.

It’s part of the “Chip Strip,” a free celebration of all things Frito-Lay that’s taking over the Brooklyn Bridge at New York-New York during Super Bowl weekend.

The immersive experience also includes food from the Lay’s Spudsbar, a Flamin’ Hot stretch limo, appearances by NFL stars and the Frito-Lay Snackpot, where attendees can win branded swag or a 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro.

At the Cheetos Chapel, couples can wear “Chester-approved wedding attire” and have a Cheetos-inspired cake ball truffle.

The weddings aren’t legally binding, though. Apparently, the hologram hasn’t been ordained.

The “Chip Strip” will be open 4-9 p.m. Thursday and 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Sunday’s hours haven’t been determined.
