Today, Oscar-winning actress and Australia's sweetheart arrived in Sydney for the preparations for her nuptials to country singer Keith Urban, that are said to take place some time this week (or weekend, according to other sources).
Nicole arrived alone and she told the Australian press that she is determined to have a small wedding, with only close friends and family invited, away from the eyes of world, but in the best style money can buy. The ceremony is so secret that even those invited to it don't know when it's going to take place ,and for that matter, exactly where.
The guest list was completed a month ago, via phone and, later on, each guest received email instructions as to the dress code and restrictions for the use of mobile phones and cameras. Apparently, Kidman is set to have the kind of wedding ceremony and party that she was deprived of 15 years ago, when she agreed to a Scientological-type of elopement with Tom Cruise.
The party will be a must black-tie and possibly, considering Nicole's way of being and upbringing, very classy and pretentious (in the most positive understanding of the term). Those who are going to attend to the wedding will be told its exact time and location only 24 hours beforehand. The only certain thing is that the maid of honor will be Nicole's sister, Antonia, paired with the best man, Keith's brother, Shane.
