They stay out until sunrise, ending up in front of a wedding chappel (which are a dime a dozen in Vegas). It is outside this chappel that they decide it would be a good idea to get married... and then go get divorced. That way their second marriages will be stronger when they get married for real (to other people). Well, they follow through with their plans, and do indeed get married.
