Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell planning wedding

Paul McCartney and his fiancee Nancy Shevell have officially begun their wedding preparations! According to reports, the couple will wed in an intimate ceremony in front of close friends and family at Paul’s palatial English estate, and adds that the wedding will take place within weeks — if not sooner.

The couple also plan to throw a big party for all of their friends in New York soon.

Former Beatle Paul was first married to Linda McCartney from 1969 until her death from breast cancer in 1998 and then to former model Heather Mills from 2002. Although he didn’t officially divorce Heather until 2008, they separated in 2006.

Nancy has been married once before, to Bruce Blakeman.
