Woman Leaves Her Life in Switzerland Behind After Falling in Love with an Elvis Tribute Artist in Las Vegas

Jessica Allen never expected her life to change the night she attended an Elvis Presley tribute show — but meeting performer Travis Allen did just that.

From the moment Jessica saw him on stage, she says she was captivated by his “energy” and “charisma.” During the show, the two shared a kiss to the song “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” and their story unfolded much like the lyrics themselves.

Though their connection felt instant, Jessica soon had to return home to Switzerland. But when Travis invited her to join him at a performance in Brazil, she said yes — and their romance quickly deepened.

“Everything happened so quickly,” Jessica recalls. “We met in March 2024, married that September, and by February 2025 I had moved to Las Vegas. It really was like the song we first kissed to — you just know when it’s right.”

Today, Jessica shares glimpses of her new life as the wife of an Elvis tribute artist on TikTok, capturing Travis’s shows and their travels.

“Travis rarely gets a day off,” she explains. “He might be performing weddings during the day, and then his shows at night. Sometimes it feels like one performance flows straight into the next. But that’s also what makes it exciting — every event feels like an adventure.”

The Las Vegas Review-Journal’s “Best of Las Vegas” has recognized Travis as one of the city’s top impersonators. With more than 2,000 weddings under his belt and performances across 25 states, he’s also an ordained minister.

Watching him on stage still amazes Jessica. “My inner fangirl comes out every time,” she admits. “When he performs a new song perfectly, it makes me so proud. On stage, he’s full of energy and completely captivating — but when he smiles at me from under the lights, I see my husband again.”

Jessica also makes it clear that their relationship isn’t about the Elvis image. “People assume I’m only with Travis because he’s an Elvis tribute artist, but I spend 95% of my life with him out of costume. I married the man behind the jumpsuit. The Elvis part is just a fun bonus — especially when he sings to me off stage.”

Although she loves her new life in Las Vegas, Jessica acknowledges that leaving Switzerland — and her family — was difficult. “It was one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever made,” she says. “I miss them every day. But with Travis, I found true love, and I’ve always been someone who follows my heart.”

Looking ahead, Jessica hopes to join Travis on stage, possibly stepping into the role of Priscilla Presley while he performs as Elvis. For now, she’s embracing life behind the scenes — and documenting their journey together.
