She's found her dress...now there's just the rest of the wedding to organise
Wednesday, 23 January 2008
Coleen McLoughlin’s June marriage to Wayne Rooney will be the wedding of the year with A-list guests and no expense spared on the ceremony.
Chart-topping band Sugababes are expected to perform at the exclusive reception and the wedding photos have already been sold in a magazine deal for £1.5 million.
After the star-studded bash, the pair will jet off to Richard Branson’s private Caribbean island Necker, where they’ll stay for free in the lap of luxury for two blissful weeks.
The Manuel Mota wedding dress
Coleen has fallen in love with a £20,000 dress – a classic Audrey Hepburn look. It’s rumoured to be an off-the- shoulder ivory gown by Manuel Mota.
Coleen says: ‘I spent two days in London going round all the boutiques and looked at different styles and shapes.’
The location
Coleen’s been looking at venues around Europe but has yet to decide where to hold the wedding. She says: ‘I just can’t make up my mind. I’ve been round England, France and Italy and I’ve still got places to see. It’s all quite confusing.’
A friend tells Now: ‘Coleen likes the idea of Italy the most. She loves the buildings she’s looked at and knows it won’t be too hot in June, but they’ll be guaranteed sun for the photos.' Coleen’s adamant that they’ll have a Roman Catholic service wherever they say their vows.
The rings
Wayne, 22, and Coleen, 21, are expected to exchange Chopard rings, simple platinum bands encrusted with diamonds.
Coleen’s diet
Coleen’s already started a major fitness campaign to get down to a size 8 for the wedding. The bride-to-be’s been jogging, swimming and skipping with a personal trainer and she’s also following a special Weight Watchers diet plan to get in shape.
The guests: WAGs and family
It’ll be a low-key family event rather than a big celebrity do, but Wayne admits: ‘Of course there‘ll be England and Man U players – they’re my mates.’
Coleen’s Uncle Sean will be Wayne’s best man and his cousin Claire will be maid of honour, but there won’t be any page boys. Wayne says: ‘I think it looks a bit stupid to have grown lads all dressed up.’
The music
Coleen loves Sugababes, who performed at her 21st birthday, so they’re top of the list to provide entertainment. Massive hip-hop fan Wayne, however, is after a big name act like 50 Cent or Kanye West, but the cost may mean settling for Craig David. Another option they’re considering is letting Wayne’s cousin James, an X Factor reject, sing.
Food and flowers
Wayne’s taken wine tasting lessons so that he can pick the best bottles for the wedding. The couple want gourmet quality, traditional English fare and could opt for luxury fish and chips. Elton John’s florist Rob Van Helden is expected to create bouquets and displays with roses, lilies and freesias to go with the bride and bridesmaids’ dresses.
Family issues
Like most couples, Wayne and Coleen have had a few rows about the guest list as certain family members might attract the wrong kind of attention on the big day. Among them are two of Wayne’s cousins – transvestite Stephen, who’s claimed he’d love to be a bridesmaid, and Natalie, who flashed her boobs outside Coleen’s 21st bash
in Cheshire. Family members can expect a warning not to leak any details to the press. Mobile phones and cameras will be confiscated.

Star rating:
I heard that Coleen's P.A is getting married in "June" in Spain but this seems a bit strange that her pa shoould get married the same month she is marrying Wayne. Maybe the PA is really Coleen & Wayne?!!
