Kourtney Kardashian has confirmed that she married Travis Barker in Las Vegas following the 64th Grammy awards.
The reality star confirmed the news in an Instagram post today (6 April), sharing snaps from her ceremony.
An Elvis Presley impersonator officiated the ceremony that took place at the One Love Chapel, Nevada.
Announcing the news to Instagram, Kardashian wrote: "Found these in my camera roll. Once upon a time in a land far, far away (Las Vegas) at 2am, after an epic night and a little tequila, a queen and her handsome king ventured out to the only open chapel with an Elvis and got married (with no license). Practice makes perfect."
The owner of the chapel Marty Frierson told the PA news agency that he got a call 'asking for Elvis' early on the morning that Kardashian and Barker tied the knot.

He said: "They said ‘we need Elvis’ and I said that may be possible but let me check.
"I checked around, found that Elvis could officiate their wedding and called back and told them to book online to make sure they were serious."
The couple came in at 1.45am with four guests, who took pictures of the celebration.

"They spoke to Elvis, did the paperwork and Elvis married them, they danced, there was a lot of kissing and hugging," Fierson said.
"Afterwards Elvis sang three songs, they walked out and did the bouquet toss…[Kourtney] tossed it… It was maybe a two-minute ceremony."
And, honestly, we'd love to know which three songs Elvis sang for the Blink-182 drummer and the Poosh owner.
According to the chapel owner, he didn't know who the couple were until the limo pulled up.

"The manager came out and told me because I was trying to figure out who it was, which is hard to do," Fierson added.
Kardashian and Barker are no strangers to making headlines with their relationship, the close couple often sharing relationship milestones with users on social media.

Back in October 2021, Kardashian confirmed her engagement to Barker on Instagram, captioning the photo 'forever'.
The pair are thought to have began dating in January 2021, officially confirming their romance on Valentine's Day that year.
They have been friends for a number of years and Barker was said to have been quickly welcomed by Kardashian's family.
