Hugh Hefner: 'Everything's in Place' for Wedding

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/40175-hugh-hefner-everything-is-in-place-for-my-wedding/1302285496_hugh-crystal-290.jpgWhile some playboys get cold feet when it comes to matrimony, Hugh Hefner tells Us Weekly he's not worried about marrying centerfold Crystal Harris this summer.

"I'm not nervous at all, I'm excited," says the Playboy founder, who celebrated his 85th birthday with a Casablanca-themed bash last weekend. "June is a big month -- Crystal and I will be in London opening a new club, then we'll come back and get married at the mansion! It's going to be a very special year. It's the Chinese year of the rabbit, so the bunny is back!"

While Harris, 24, has made most of the arrangements, Hefner says she does ask for his input, and is a "relaxed" bride-to-be.

"Everything is in place," he says. "She's wonderful and she's done a really terrific job so far with all the planning. She is the one for me!"

And the Girls Next Door star had nothing but good things to say about ex-girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson, who's competing on this season's Dancing With the Stars.

"I have absolutely been watching. And voting!" Hefner tells Us. "I call in. And I've been telling others to vote for her as well. I think she's doing great. There's nothing fake about Kendra. She's a very special lady."

Jessica S: I'll Wear A Low-Cut Wedding Dress

Jessica Simpson: I'll Wear a Low-Cut Wedding DressJessica Simpson may be a fashion mogul, but she's still at work on her most important look yet: her wedding dress.

"It's definitely going to be beautiful," the singer, who is engaged to former NFL player Eric Johnson, tells PEOPLE. "I want it to be different from what I've had before. I have a lot of tear sheets!"

Still, Simpson – who says she'd love to have a "Carrie Bradshaw moment" trying on lots of gowns – often gravitates toward v-neck or scoop necks, which flatter her physique and help her avoid looking "top heavy."

Besides, "I like my collar bone," adds Simpson, 30. "I have a long neck, so I like to show off my décolletage."

As for the color, "I haven't really thought about it," Simpson confesses. But, "I do like the romantic feel of a lighter color."

While she focuses on her dress, Simpson's bridesmaids will be busy choosing their own ensembles. "I definitely would want all my bridesmaids to be in everything different," says the bride-to-be. "Just [to reflect] what their personalities are.”

For now, though, with so many of the plans still up in the air, Simpson doesn't even know when the nuptials will take place – or where.

"It’ll definitely be somewhere warm!" she says. "Once I get what I want my dress to look like. We'll set a date."

Kim Kardashian Reveals Future Wedding Plans

http://www.lifeandstylemag.com/2011/04/12/1117Cover.jpgAlthough they've been dating for only five months, Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries have quickly fallen head over heels in love! "Kris just gets me," the reality star told Life & Style at the April 4 launch party for Unbreakable, the unisex fragrance from her sister Khloé and Khloé's husband, Lamar Odom.

In fact, the couple are already talking engagement rings, wedding plans -- and even what they'll name their children! "I want Lorraine to design me a big diamond ring," Kim gushed to friend Brittny Gastineau at the Beverly Hills Nail Design on April 10. Kim was describing the engagement ring she wants jewelry designer Lorraine Schwartz, her longtime pal, to create for her! A friend tells Life & Style, "Her idol is Elizabeth Taylor, who was a good friend of Lorraine's, so she wants to take inspiration from one of Elizabeth's prized possessions: her famous cushion-cut Krupp diamond. Kim's been talking to Lorraine about it a lot lately."

And Kim tells Life & Style that she's fantasized about her wedding ever since she was a little girl. "I've envisioned the whole thing," Kim tells Life & Style. "I can't wait to get married. I've found my wedding dress -- I mean, I already know what my gown is going to look like. I've thought about it all for so long. What woman hasn't thought about her wedding since she was a little girl?" Kim plans to take a trip to Paris to shop for a Chanel couture wedding gown, the friend reveals to Life & Style. Her dream dress? "She wants a white strapless floor-length gown that's traditional but sexy and makes her feel like a princess," says the pal.

Kris and Kim -- who both come from families in which the kids' names all begin with the letter K -- have already discussed what they're going to name their children. "I think I'll name my kids with K's to keep the tradition going," Kim says. She even has a favorite name picked out for a baby boy, the friend reveals: Kristopher Jr., named after the man she plans to marry. "I want a big family," Kim told Life & Style at the Unbreakable event. "Three to five kids!"

Holly Madison Won't Attend Hef's Wedding

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkrQokCD0_227yJRqmdk8yghmdG3TLXcRd5CBpGhsdrLxCcx4LlCkwckDcXSg0ba97SA7AlmhuAbnBe7YZ6_FwVinJC2w89up84Mnz7PzyIehIiX0d3VjVdxnWubEtEZtIgTfuvOqyK178/s1600/Holly+M.jpgThe guest list at Hugh Hefner's wedding has mostly been set, but there's one former flame who won't be in attendance.

"I think Holly Madison has expressed publicly that it would be a little strange if she was there and I respect that," the Playboy founder told PEOPLE at his 85th birthday party at Las Vegas's Palms Casino Resort.

As portrayed on E!'s Girls Next Door, Madison hoped to marry Hefner but eventually moved on and relocated to Las Vegas. Hefner, meanwhile, moved on to 24-year-old Crystal Harris, whom he will wed on June 18. The feud between Madison and Harris has been well documented.

As for Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt, the two other women who costarred with Madison, they are invited, despite Wilkinson's recent claims that she has yet to receive a "Save The Date" card from the couple.

"She knows she's invited," Hefner said. "The invitations haven't gone out yet."

Hefner, himself, is a little surprised that he's taking another trip down the aisle.

"I never expected to get married again," said the previously twice-married Hefner. "But the reality is I can't see myself with anybody else, and I just want to give the relationship that kind of formal statement. I think Crystal deserves it. I love happy endings."

Are Wedding Bells In Paris Hilton's Future?

http://www3.pictures.zimbio.com/pc/Cy+Waits+Oxygen+Media+Upfronts+zo7_bwMqVcZl.jpg

With her new Oxygen reality show, a famous family and millions in the bank, it seems like Paris Hilton has it all. But The World According to Paris starlet, who has been dating Las Vegas nightclub mogul Cy Waits for nearly a year, may soon have a hunky husband on her arm as well. “I can see myself marrying him. We are so happy!” Paris told In Touch about her beau at the Oxygen Upfront Presentation at Gotham Hall in New York on April 4.

Unlike her past boyfriends, Paris swears Cy sees past the glitz and glamour of her Hollywood life. “He's different. He doesn’t care about the spotlight," she added. "He loves me for me."

Thankfully, Cy has the close-knit Hilton clan’s seal of approval. “There have been a few guys Paris has dated that I have openly told her were wrong for her. But Cy is amazing,” mom Kathy told In Touch as she supported her daughter at the red-carpet event. The proposal may come sooner rather than later - Cy and Paris were recently caught ring-shopping at celebrity jewelry store Jacob & Co. in New York.

Hef & Crytal's Wedding Secrets Revealed

http://www.buzzhollywood.com/celebrity-images/1298530809/fc3e7_hugh-hefner-and-crystal-harris-wedding-date-set.jpgCrystal Harris is wasting no time making her union to Playboy magnate Hugh Hefner more than official, and now Radar Online is revealing some of the hush-hush details!
"This will be the most romantic wedding ever," Crystal boasted in an exclusive new interview.

Set to wed Hef on Saturday, June 18, Radar Online can reveal that Crystal has made a decision on the most important detail for the big day: her gown.

The bride-to-be, 24, will wear a Ramona Keveca design when she says her 'I Do' to 84-year-old Hef.

"No expense is being spared for the wedding," Playboy spokeswoman Kellie Olisky told Radar Online. in an exclusive interview.

"It isn't even a compromise, because Hef wants Crystal to have the wedding of her dreams."

June 18 is when the happy couple will tie the knot at the world famous Playboy Mansion and every detail is set to reflect Crystal's romantic, whimsical and simple visions.

The decor will be an elegant theme, with pale summery hues; but the one thing Hef wanted -- and got -- was bright flowers.

"Hef asked that the flowers be bursting with color and this will look great with Crystal's lighter colored theme everywhere else," Olisky told Radar Online.

DJ Cassidy, who is performing at Cocahella with Kanye West, will be spinning tunes at the reception while veteran musician, Ray Anthony, will also be playing!

The couple will be keeping the wedding small -- at least by Hollywood standards -- inviting around 300 guests.

Designer Ramona Keveca has also the bridesmaid dresses, with Crystal having her two sisters and Anna Berglund, Miss January 2011, as attendants.

Hef's brother Keith and two of his sons, Marston and Cooper, will form the groom's party.

"The day is going to be a testimony to their love," Olisky said.

Crystal Doesn't Want Hef's Exes At Wedding

http://www1.pictures.gi.zimbio.com/Karissa+Shannon+Crystal+Harris+37th+AFI+Life+_RBa4LgT0Sel.jpgHugh Hefner's ex-girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson is peeved that she has yet to receive an invite to his upcoming nuptials with Crystal Harris, and the wedding day, set for June 18, is fast approaching. Wilkinson is now threatening to attend another wedding that day, one she has rightfully been invited to.

Kendra should bank on attending the alternate wedding since sources close to Hef's betrothed tell PopEater that Harris is on the fence about whether she wants her big day packed with an audience of women her husband has slept with.

"This is Crystal's special day, and she doesn't want all of Hef's exes there," a friend says. "What woman would?"

It's a fair question despite the liberties typically taken in Hugh Hefner's personal relationships, where he has lived with several girlfriends at once.

Kendra says she doesn't blame Hugh, but she does blame Crystal.

"It's Crystal that does the wedding planning. She's the girl," Kendra told E! Online. "If she doesn't give me a save the date soon, I'm going to have to put in my save the date with the other wedding."

This may be the third wedding for Hef, but it is Crystal's first. And though their relationship got off on a nontraditional foot, what with Crystal sharing Hef with the Shannon twins, she wants her marriage to be a traditional one and that means no more sharing.

This wedding is sure to be a media circus, so a save the date would likely go through Kendra's publicist before it gets sent to her personally anyway. Still, the reality star shouldn't hold her breath. That other wedding sounds like it will be just as fun, but we feel bad for that pal, who now knows they're second fiddle.

Hef to Crystal Harris -- We Don't Need A Prenup

http://behindthelashes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Hugh-Hefner-and-Crystal-Harris.jpg

He's 84 and worth $43 million ... she's 24 and knows he's worth $43 million -- yet sources close to Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris tell TMZ neither has uttered those dreaded words ... "prenuptial agreement."

Hef's third wedding is just 10 weeks away, but we're told he hasn't raised a prenup convo because he "actually cares" about Crystal and doesn't want to ask her to sign one.

We're told Crystal doesn't think Hef will bring it up before they tie the knot.

What could go wrong?

Jessica Simpson: Fiance and I "Might Elope"

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/39859-jessica-simpson-fiance-and-i-might-elope/1301329229_jessica-eric-290.jpg
Although Jessica Simpson, 30, and love Eric Johnson got engaged last November -- her exes Tony Romo and Nick Lachey did, too -- she insists in Monday's Women's Wear Daily that she's in no rush.

"No date has been set," the singer and designer says of her wedding. She explains: "We've both been married before. We're enjoying our commitment to each other. We want to take our time."

Adds the uber-successful fashionista, who dated Johnson, 33, for less than 6 months before he popped the question: "I will be part of designing my own wedding gown. We might elope if it gets to that point."

The once-divorced star also opens up about how she met ex-NFL player and Yale grad Johnson, 33. "He was out with some of my friends, and I was at home. One of my friends said, 'You should come back to Jessica’s house.' He came to the door and said, 'This is Eric Johnson,' and I said, 'Who?' And he said he was coming to hang out."

Since then, she jokes: "I haven't let him leave the house. We got engaged at the house. It's one of those rare stories."

As close and she and her groom-to-be are, however, Simpson also says Johnson has no plans to become a Hollywood mover and shaker.

"No," she says regarding the possibility of Johnson helping out with her showbiz or fashion careers. "Eric's a great guy. He's taking art classes at UCLA. He's very artistic. It's nice to have an artistic athlete. You don't find that too much."

What's their dynamic like? "We're very relaxed," she says. "It takes a lot to get us stressed out. We talk through everything. You'll see him off in the corner, and what's Eric doing? He's just meditating."

Are Amanda And Ryan Wedding Crashers?

http://celebrity-gossip.net/sites/default/files/imagecache/fullsize_image/images/r/ryan-amanda-032611-2.jpg

Making for quite the interesting choice in locale, Ryan Phillippe and girlfriend Amanda Seyfried have opted to spend the weekend at the San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, CA.

Situated just thirty minutes from Ryan's ex Reese Witherspoon's wedding grounds of Ojai, the new couple was spotted getting some exercise while taking their dogs for a jog on Saturday (March 26).

The visit to the San Ysidro Ranch comes as Phillippe's two children with Witherspoon, Ava and Deacon, are joining their mother as she walks down the aisle with agent beau Jim Toth.

The nuptials are expected to take place on Saturday night, with guests including actress Renee Zellweger staying at the ritzy Ojai Valley Inn & Spa.

Vanessa: Nick Wants A "Tailgate" Wedding

http://www.celebritycowboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/nick_lachey-vanessa-minnillo.jpgSome brides-to-be love planning their big day, but Vanessa Minnillo's walk down the aisle has her flashing back to high school.

"I always feel irresponsible, like I'm unprepared for my test at school," the actress tells Rachael Ray on her show airing next Monday. "We have nothing yet, except for the wedding planner."

Still, Minnillo, 30, isn't about to turn over the reins to hubby-to-be Nick Lachey, 37, a notorious fan of Cincinnati sports teams.

"If I let Nick plan the wedding it'll be around some sporting event," she said. "We'll have a big old tailgate party with Miller Light! We'll have University of Cincinnati Bearcats running around!"

Wedding aesthetics aside, Minnillo tells Ray that she was "floored" when the Sing Off host finally got down on one-knee and proposed in November after four years of dating.

"Since we've been together for so long every time he asked me to do something romantic, I thought it might be the moment," she says. "So even if I didn't want to, he'd be like 'Baby let's go watch the sunset,' I'm like, 'okay.' Just in case it was. Nothing. 'Baby let's go take a hike.' Nothing. This went on for like a year! But I don't think you're ever prepared for the moment."

One moment, Minillo's really not ready for? Having kids.

"Let's do it one chapter at a time, why rush?" she says. "We have the rest of our lives. If you have children, once they're there, they're there. You can't say, 'I don't think I want to deal with you today.' No, they're there!"

Hugh Hefner, 84, is one step closer to tying the knot with his 24-year-old bride, Crystal Harris.

The twosome will wed at the Playboy Mansion June 18, a Playboy rep confirms to Us Magazine.

"It will be intimate with a close number of friends here at the mansion," Hefner has said of the nuptials. "No big blowout affair. Something very personal."

An insider tells Us they've set the list at less than 300 guests and that Harris is close to making one other important choice: the gown.

The insider says the Playmate -- who nabbed a $90,000 ring from her fiance -- is eyeing a strapless dress by designer Romona Keveza.

Nick Lachey & Vanessa Minnillo: Ready for Baby?

http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2010/news/101115/nick-lachey-240.jpgVanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey have yet to set a wedding date — but that doesn’t mean a baby in 2011 is out of the question.

“Things happen,” Minnillo, 30, tells PEOPLE. “And if a blessing comes before the wedding then that’s exactly what it is, [a blessing].”

Since getting engaged to The Sing-Off host Nick Lachey, 36, last November, Minillo has been busy filming guest spots on 30 Rock and Hawaii 5-0, airing in February. But her work schedule won’t keep her from eventually becoming a mom.

“I would love to have children and work,” she explains. “I definitely don’t want it to slow me down. I’m always going to be, ‘Go, go, go.’ And I’m going to be pregnant, fat and happy through it all.”

Who does Minnillo look to as a role-model mom? None other than her fellow bride-to-be Reese Witherspoon.

“I think she’s amazing. She’s a strong woman who can manage her two babies and still be a talented actress as well an ambassador for her causes,” Minnillo says of Witherspoon. “She’s done it all, and she’s done it all with grace and [shown] it is possible.”

Nicole Richie on Marriage: I Get Away With More



On Tuesday's The Talk, newlywed Nicole Richie, 29, dished on her wedding, marriage and whether she and Joel Madden, 31, will add to their brood.

After four years as a couple, Richie admitted that married life has its own quirks.

"It's different because I know I can get away with more," she said. Asked if she would elaborate, Richie replied: "I haven't tested him yet."

Richie was a bit cagey on whether her children Sparrow, 1, and Harlow, 2, would get a baby brother or sister anytime soon. "I don't think it's fair to ask someone that's had two back-to-back if they're going to have another one," she said. "You never know."

With two toddlers running around and an elaborate wedding under her belt, she is sure of one thing: "I need a nap."

Hugh Hefner Engaged to Playmate Crystal Harris

http://www.celebgossipz.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/hugh-hefners-birthday-bash1.jpgHugh Hefner rang in the holidays with an engagement ring.

The Playboy founder is engaged to girlfriend Crystal Harris, 24, he announced on Twitter.

Nicole's Big Suprise For Joel On Wedding Day

http://www.radaronline.com/sites/radaronline.com/files/imagecache/350width/wenn2767371_1.jpg

Though the bride usually makes most of the wedding arrangements, the groom is usually looped in on the big things. But for Joel Madden and Nicole Richie’s wedding, one very large part of the wedding was a surprise to the Good Charlotte Rocker: the elephant!

“I was like, ‘what?’” Madden told People Magazine about the 47-year old animal which greeted their guests.

“Then I just laughed- Nicole getting an elephant and not telling me is typical of our relationship.”

Madden added that he is usually the “no guy” but let the massive shocker roll off his back out of love for his bride.

“But if there’s one time I want her to have the craziest thing she wants, it’s the day we marry.”

Nicole Richie's 'Magical' Wedding Night

http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2010/news/101227/nicole-richie-240.jpgEver since she was a little girl, there were two things Nicole Richie wanted on the day she married: a show-stopper dress inspired by Grace Kelly's iconic wedding gown, and a real live elephant for good luck.

Both her wishes came true as she married Good Charlotte rocker Joel Madden at her father Lionel Richie's home on Dec. 11.

They tied the knot in front of their children – Harlow, 2, was the flower girl, while 15-month-old Sparrow was the ring-bearer – under a tent transformed to resemble a French garden.

"It was magical," Richie, 29, tells PEOPLE. Adds Madden, 31: "It was the best night of my life."

For her big day, Richie wore three stunning Marchesa dresses, including one featuring a ball-gown skirt crafted from more than 100 yards of hand-draped silk organza and tulle petals.

Nicole Richie's Wedding Elephant Explained!

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/37569-nicole-and-joel-m/1292352531_nicole-joel-290.jpgWhy in the world was there an elephant at Nicole Richie and Joel Madden's wedding?

Folks were baffled Saturday when an elephant with an elaborate headdress was seen entering the premises of Lionel Richie's Beverly Hills estate -- where 150 guests watched his daughter and Madden exchange vows.

The answer lies in an interview Richie, 29, gave way back in November 2005, when she was then engaged to marry the late DJ A.M. (real name: Adam Goldstein).

On Larry King Live! she told guest host Ryan Seacrest all about her wedding plans. "I want to have a very, very big wedding. I want it to be very extravagant. I want like hundreds of people and elephants...and a horse and carriage."

Befuddled, Seacrest asked about the inclusion of elephants. "Because elephants are really good luck," Richie explained. "And they're beautiful animals. You don't think?"

To illustrate, she added: "You know, the movie Coming to America," in which Eddie Murphy plays an African prince who has a beyond-lavish wedding with elephants and many other creatures.

"I want it bigger than that," she said.

Elephant or not, Richie's actual nuptials were slightly more low-key. Richie wore three different Marchesa outfits for the black-tie, winter-themed event, attended by celeb pals like Khloe Kardashian and Samantha Ronson. Rapper-minister Rev. Run officiated the ceremony, and guests dined on goodies like homemade butternut squash ravioli, filet mignon and a dessert buffet.

"It was awesome!" a guest told Us.

Why Paris Wasn't Invited to Nicole's Wedding

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/37535-why-paris-hilton-wasnt-invited-to-nicole-richies-wedding/1292265730_nicole-paris-290.jpgThey may have called a truce in 2006, but that doesn't mean Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are as close as they once were.

When Richie, 29, tied the knot to Good Charlotte rocker Joel Madden at her father Lionel's Beverly Hills estate on Saturday, her former Simple Life costar was noticeably absent.

"Nicole knew very well that having Paris involved would have inevitably turned a special night into being about their friendship," a source tells Us Magazine. "Nicole's life is completely different now."

In fact, Richie didn't even bother to invite Hilton, her best friend since the age of 2, to attend the winter-themed ceremony. And though Richie's pals Khloe Kardashian and Samantha Ronson made the final guest list, a source close to Hilton tells Us that the 29-year-old socialite "isn't dwelling on it too much."

"She and Nicole aren't close anymore, but there are no hard feelings there," the insider explains. "They just grew up and apart."

Hilton showed no signs of misery when she jetted off to Las Vegas to celebrate her friend Jennifer Rovero's birthday on Saturday -- the same day her former BFF walked down the aisle.

"Good morning everyone! Off to Vegas for my BFF @CamRaFace's Birthday!" Hilton tweeted. "Huge! Loves it!"
