Mariah Carey plans $4 million wedding with 2000 guests

Its been rumored for weeks that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon might have a second wedding ceremony, and apparently the preparations really are being made. Never accuse Mariah Carey of under-doing anything. Or being classy. The woman is many things, but understated is not one of them.

It’s been rumored for weeks that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon might have a second wedding ceremony, and apparently the preparations really are being made. Never accuse Mariah Carey of under-doing anything. Or being classy. The woman is many things, but understated is not one of them.

After she and Nick Cannon had a quickie wedding in the Bahamas, they rented out a Six Flags theme park for 100 of their closest friends to celebrate. But apparently that wasn’t enough for the locals – the two are working hard on what sounds like a really upscale wedding ceremony to be held in New York City.

Plans for Mariah Carey’s second wedding to husband Nick Cannon are well underway, and this time around, Carey plans to make her nuptials an over-the-top event, according to a source close to the singer. “It’s going to be held in New York City in the next six weeks. Picture a wedding on the scale of Liza Minnelli’s (to David Gest) and you’ll be on the right track,” said the source.

Carey last week told Ellen DeGeneres that the wedding would be next year, and the guests at her Bahamian ceremony were “mainly people there to do my hair and help me with the dress,” which certainly won’t be the case for part deux.

“She wants over 2,000 guests and the budget will be well over $4 million and she’ll have at least 14 bridesmaids,” the source revealed. One name already said to be confirmed on the guest list: Naomi Campbell. We can’t wait.

Let’s talk fundamentals here. If you compare anything to something related to Liza Minnelli or David Gest, it’s going to be incredibly tacky. If you compare it to something related to Liza Minnelli and David Gest it’s going to be beyond horrendous. I can’t wait to see this ceremony. It sounds like it’ll rival Star Jones’ wedding – and we all know just how well that turned out.

2000 guests just screams “We’re inviting Entertainment Tonight to our wedding!” I bet that amount of love you have for each other is in direct proportion to the amount of guests at your wedding. Because we all know the bigger and more lavish the affair, the greater and more enduring the romance, right?
