Star weddings 2012The couples who've tied the know already

Details of couple's wedding plans revealed...

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will marry this year on 11 August, it has been reported.

The couple, who have six children together, confirmed their engagement earlier this month.

They are said to be planning a double celebration to coincide with Pitt’s parents Golden Wedding Anniversary.

Up to 300 guests, including George Clooney, Matt Damon and Johnny Depp, are expected to attend the ceremony at the couple’s £35million French château.

An insider told the Daily Star:

"They thought their kids would love the idea of seeing mom and dad get hitched followed by a big bash for them as well as 'Meemaw and Grandpa' as they call Brad's folks.

"[Jolie] came up with the idea of making it a real family celebration by merging Bill and Jane's special day with theirs.

"Brad's family mean a lot to Angelina, especially since she lost her own mum Marcheline to ovarian cancer more than five years ago and spent years refusing to talk to her father.

"The kids have been asking when they're going to get married for years. Now they are pretty much the main reason Brad and Angelina are tying the knot."

Their children, Maddox, ten, Pax, eight, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, six, and twins Knox and Vivienne, three, are said to be heavily involved in the wedding celebrations.
