Elvis Presley’s Graceland and Hallmark Channel are teaming up to create a unique two-day immersive fan event tied to the network’s annual programming franchise, “June Weddings.” The event, June Weddings Fan Celebration at Graceland, will take place May 18-19 and feature meet and greets, panel discussions, and live musical performances by Jack Wagner.
Kellie Pickler and Wes Brown, the lead actors in Hallmark Channel’s forthcoming film ‘Wedding at Graceland,’ will engage in a moderated discussion and audience Q&A session. This film goes into production at the mansion this month, and marks the first of two 2019 follow-ups to ‘Christmas at Graceland,’ which was Hallmark Channel’s top-rated movie of the previous year.
The event will include exclusive movie previews, wedding-themed parties. Additional Hallmark Channel talent confirmed to-date include Jack Wagner and Josie Bissett (“Wedding March 5”) and Jill Wagner (“Christmas Wishes & Mistletoe Kisses”).
Throughout the event, the stars will take part in panel talks, sign autographs, and appear at various wedding-themed gatherings. These include the ‘Going to the Chapel’ VIP cocktail party and the ‘Happily Ever After’ dinner and dance, featuring a live performance by Jack Wagner.
The June Weddings Fan Celebration at Graceland follows the much-anticipated opening of the new Chapel in the Woods last summer, which will host some of the weekend’s activities. This chapel will also be featured in the upcoming ‘Wedding at Graceland’ movie.
