14 DAY TRIAL // Even if both Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are financially well off and could very well afford to pay for their own nuptials, they aren't going to shell out a single cent on the entire affair.
Radar has learned that the entire wedding and its costs are going to be covered by Keeping Up with the Kardashians and the parent network E! In return, the whole wedding is going to be featured on the show, meaning you'll get to see the whole wedding from the comfort of your own living room.
Insiders report that Kanye was a little bit apprehensive of the entire idea, but was eventually talked into it after Kim convinced him that E! was going to pick up the tab.
That way, it falls to the producers to make sure that everything will go as planned in terms of logistics but also security, which has proved to be quite tricky on previous occasions.
Whether it was from nosy guests with camera phones or from paparazzi flying over the scene in helicopters, many celebrities saw their “exclusive weddings” being plastered all over the news.
Kim has unveiled on the Jimmy Kimmel show that the wedding is going to take place over the summer in Paris. The insider has narrowed it down to a June wedding taking place on the outskirts of Paris.
Despite not paying a dime for the wedding, both Kim and Kanye have high expectations of the reception. The insider tells us “Both Kim and Kanye have very high expectations for their wedding. It will be an over-the-top affair and there will be pre-wedding festivities leading up to the big day for their guests. It’ll be like a festival!”
Of course it’s going to be over the top, because both Kim and her fiancée Kanye are known for their outrageous spending and their inclination towards everything that is both expensive and exclusive.
The producers are probably hoping that the most anticipated wedding of 2014 will be able to bring back some of the killer ratings KUWTK was making a few years ago, because the current ninth season fell down in audiences to a three-year low.
