Brad and Angelina plan French wedding

5th May 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are reportedly planning to get married at their newly-renovated French chateau.

The Hollywood superstars raise six children together and have been dating since 2005. Speculation about when they will tie the knot has been rife throughout their relationship and it has now been reported they will wed during the grape harvest later this year. The couple are currently overseeing extensive work on their $60 million 35-bedroom Miraval estate in the South of France and are keen to complete soon so they can hold the nuptials there.

"The couple have been working on the property for a while now because they want to be able to host most of their wedding guests in the house and the home needed to be modernised, a source told X17 Online. But all the locals are talking about how these two will be hosting their wedding here in France, at their chateau, in the fall."

The 16th century chateau boasts its own private chapel and Brad - who has a keen interest in architecture wants to restore it with a view to making their marriage vows there. The plans have been approved by the local government, but they are facing trouble over their use of helicopters.

The couple have been accused of using their extensive gardens as a helipad, but Brad, 47, and 35-year-old Angelina are keen to protect their privacy and believed landing inside their 880-acre estate is the only way to avoid the public spotlight.

"They want to land their helicopter on the property because this area is difficult to get to, the source added. The home is on the top of a mountain and we are basically in the middle of the countryside here. People like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie don't have the time to drive here - they want to move quickly. But local government officials aren't happy with where they are currently landing their helicopter. It is in the middle of the protected gardens and the owners have been told they need to find a new landing pad." (C) Cover Media
