How do I get a divorce in Las Vegas?
Las Vegas, Nevada is home to thousands of weddings each year, but many years ago we were also renown for the quickie divorce. Laws have changed a bit and you must now be a Clark County resident for at least 6 weeks prior to filing for a divorce. Wait another 6 weeks after filing and the divorce will become final barring any complications. The process is far simpler and cheaper when both spouses agree and there are no children involved. Keep in mind however that Nevada is considered a 'community property' state. This means most prenuptial contracts are void, and spouses are expected to share equally in joint assets. Therefore, half of that lottery you won last week, half of the ancestrial mansion you inherited while married and half that Maserati you splurged on with your recent gambling winnings (as well as half of any debts acquired while married), automatically belongs to your spouse!
An annulment, recently popularized by a certain well-known singing star, on the other hand, dissolves the marriage as though it never occured and requires only that you were married in Nevada or one spouse or the other currently resides here. An annulment takes only about 6 weeks, but requires detailed reasons and qualifications and is NOT guaranteed. In this case time is of the essence and generally the sooner after the marriage it is persued the more likely it is to be granted. Acceptable grounds include underage, intoxication, insanity, blood relatedness and significant material misrepresentation. Neither process ABSOLUTELY REQUIRES the participation of an attorney and in fact kits may be purchased with all the forms and instructions needed to accomplish this, however, especially if you are not intimately familiar with all the ramifications and terms mentioned above, it is STRONGLY recommended that you contact one before persuing either process to discuss your particular situation. The Nevada Bar Association will be happy to refer you to a qualified lawyer.

No. You have to be a resident of the State of Nevada for a required length of time before you can get divorced there. You can only get divorced where you live, regardless of where you got married. I think in Vegas you have to have lived there 60 days or something.
One of the reasons for the long residency period is because of the number of people who get married there on a whim.
