The transition from long-term companion to mother unfolded rapidly. Pressure from Elvis's manager, Colonel Tom Parker, along with RCA Victor executives, pushed the couple toward the altar to preserve Elvis’s clean-cut image. The wedding took place on May 1, 1967, at the Aladdin Hotel in Las Vegas. Priscilla was 21; Elvis was 32. The ceremony lasted eight minutes.
Lisa Marie was born exactly nine months later on February 1, 1968. Rumors long persisted that Priscilla was pregnant before the wedding, but the calendar disproves the claim: Lisa Marie arrived right on medical schedule for a post-wedding conception.
