Kian Egan's wedding to Jodi Albert may be the Irish showbiz wedding of the summer -- but you would never guess from the dress code.
Far from asking their guests to don their finest garb as they watch the Westlife star swap vows with his former Hollyoaks star fiancee, the couple are taking a far more laid back approach to their Barbados ceremony tomorrow.
SOARING
With temperatures soaring into the 30s, the smitten pair have decided it's far too hot for their guests to wear black tie and full-length dresses.
Instead, the couple are breaking with normal showbiz tradition, which normally sees guests trying to outdo each other in the designer stakes, and giving attendees the go-ahead to wear "casual" clothes.
"Kian has said that it would just be too uncomfortable for everyone to be walking around in formal wear and has said he has no problem with the guys wearing shorts, tee-shirts and sandals while the girls can just wear summer dresses. It will probably look more like a beach party than a high-profile celebrity wedding," said a source.
"All eyes will be on Jodi anyway, as she has been working out a lot lately to make sure she looks stunning in her wedding dress." And although the wedding venue is being kept firmly under wraps in order to protect the couple's lucrative deal with a British glossy, it's widely speculated that they'll stage the ceremony in the five-star Coral Reef Club, one of the holiday island's most exclusive resorts. Kian and Jodi arrived in Barbados last weekend to relax ahead of their big day and await their 100 guests. Attendees include pop mogul Louis Walsh and Kian's Westlife bandmates, including Nicky Byrne. He and wife Georgina Ahern have left their two-year-old twins Rocco and Jay at home while they see their pals tie the knot.
Hectic
Jodi's four other bandmates in her new girl group, which has just signed a lucrative contract with Sony/BMG, will also be at the romantic event.
But, given their hectic schedules, the couple will have decided against extending their stay in Barbados and won't be having a honeymoon.
