Lake Havasu Wedding
Lake Havasu City is a city in Mohave County, Arizona, USA. The city had a population of 41,938 in the 2000 census. Lake Havasu City was established in 1963 by Robert P. McCulloch (of McCulloch Chainsaws) as a planned community. It was incorporated in 1978. The present city grew around an old mining town established in the early 20th century.
A popular tourist attraction in Lake Havasu City is the London Bridge, which crosses an 8ft deep man-made canal that leads from Lake Havasu (on the Colorado River) to Thompson Bay. It was bought for for $2.5 million from the City of London when the bridge was replaced in 1968. The bridge was disassembled, and the marked stones were shipped to Lake Havasu City and reassembled for another $7 million. It opened in October 1971. It has been claimed that it was bought in the mistaken belief that it was the more grandiose Tower Bridge (which is often wrongly called London Bridge by tourists), but McCulloch ardently denied that.
