Are there pre-wedding arguements going on between Brad and Angelina, OK magazine seems to think so. As reported the divide seems extreme. Worth looking at the original article just for the pictures.
Insiders have said Angelina is looking forward to a private ceremony in France with just a handful of people but Brad wants a large and lavish church wedding in New Orleans.
Brangelina were adament they weren’t going to marry each other after they both suffered painful divorces and because of Brad’s opposal to US laws against homosexual marriages.

For Tricia Nixon’s 1971 wedding, the Vietnam War protesters camped outside the White House agreed to take their bullhorns down the street — just until the ceremony was over.In 1906, Alice Roosevelt’s ceremony in the East Room after a Grand Hallway entrance was literally swoon-worthy — several guests reportedly passed out from excitement.When Maria Monroe (the first White House daughter to marry during her father’s presidential term) decided to exclude foreign dignitaries from her 1820 guest list, it caused such a backlash that some speculate it informed the creation of the Monroe Doctrine. Jenna Bush has a hard act to follow.A White House wedding is the perfect nexus of celebrity-spotting, couture gowns and young love — with just enough wonk thrown in to explain even dour politicos’ obsession with the nuptials. This newspaper covered Alice Roosevelt’s Feb. 17 wedding by eschewing all other front-page news stories in favor of a blown-up picture of the bride, calling her the "daughter of all American people" and her wedding "a blessed union of the hearts and hands such is possible nowhere more than in the United States."Los Angeles may have the Oscars and New York the Tony Awards, but Jenna Bush in Zac Posen, floating through the East Wing on the arm of her teary-eyed president-dad? Washington could own that show.Or, at least it could if Jenna decides to marry Henry Hager in the White House — which would be the 10th such wedding in Executive Mansion history. (Some presidents’ children have elected to exchange vows at alternative locations: Newly converted Catholic Luci Baines Johnson, for example, was married at the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.) Tony Rodham, Hillary Clinton’s brother, married Nicole Boxer in the Rose Garden in 1994. But the last child of a president to wed at the White House was Tricia Nixon more than 35 years ago.

Melanie Brown has defended new husband Stephen Belafonte’s reputation after he was accused of beating up an ex-girlfriend and withholding child support payments. Stephen is said to have hit Nicole Contreras, the mother of his daughter Giselle, while drunk in May 2003 and was put on probation and ordered to attend a domestic violence programme after the incident. The Spice Girl told Hello! magazine recently: “Everything I stand for is about being a strong, independent woman, so for him to be seen as a wife beater is devastating for me because he’s not – he never has been.” “They’re trying to make him out to be this aggressive, violent, woman batterer and he’s not. If you read those police reports, they never say he physically beat up a woman.” “I don’t like that my friends and family read this and go into shock-horror mode, thinking, ‘Oh, she’s married a psychopath!’.” The couple married in a secret wedding ceremony in June, just months after the old friends started dating. Melanie explained that Stephen proposed by “hiding” a ring in her drink: “I took one big, deep breath and said, ‘Yes’. As well as going, ‘Thank you God! Don’t let me down. Not for the third time’.

DJ Chris Evans has revealed wedding news that he has married golf
professional Natasha Shishmanian, 27, on Saturday. The simple ceremony
took place at a registry office in Guildford, Surry in a private
occasion. The wedding is the third for Evans, 41 who has previously
been married to Carol McGiffin and actress Billie Piper.
Even though the ceremony was low-key, we hear the stag party was
full on and can’t wait for the photos! The wedding news follows on from
the earlier news that Shane Lynch also married in a low key event,
perhaps marking a new celebrity wedding trend, especially after the
summer of WAG weddings!

It looks as though it will take more than Windex to clean up the mess surrounding My Big Fat Greek Wedding’s profits.
More than five years after its release, co-producers Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson and Gary Goetzman, along with writer Nia Vardalos, have filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court against Gold Circle Films LLC alleging that they are still owed profits from that company.
My Big Fat Greek Wedding won acclaim when it was released as a quiet indie film in 2002. It went on to become one of the highest-grossing films of that year and garnered Vardalos an Oscar nomination for screenwriting, among many other honours.
The film easily surpassed its $5-million (U.S.) budget, going on to make around $370-million worldwide, according to Box Office Mojo, a tracking firm. According to the plaintiffs, Gold Circle maintains that the receipts totalled only $278-million.

Defoe has denied the claims by Chidley. The Mirror quotes a friend as saying “He told Charlotte he wanted to prove his love to her and was not going to let a kiss-and-tell girl come between them. They set a date and are over the moon.”

Parker married the Desperate Housewives actress in a religious service in Paris on 7 July, but the sportsman already has concerns about his marriage – he is petrified of misplacing his band.
The San Antonio Spurs star says, "It’s weird, it’s weird. I don’t wear rings. … The only ring that I was wearing is our championship rings, but you only wear that maybe two times, three times maybe. So I have to get used to it.
