German supermodel Claudia Schiffer is to marry her film producer boyfriend Matthew Vaughn in a celebrity filled ceremony in Suffolk on May 25.
Three hundred guests, including Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie, Sting and Elton John are expected to attend. Former footballer and Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels star Vinnie Jones will serve as an usher. “The other ushers are Lock, Stock boys Jason Flemyng, Jason Statham and Guy Richie,” reveals Vinnie. “It´s the old team back again and it should be a right laugh.”
The ceremony will take place at a church in the same parish as the couple's new, £5 million Suffolk property, Coldham Hall, although its exact location is being kept secret - even from guests - until the actual day. The reception will be held in the mansion, which was built in 1575 and was once home to one of the gunpowder plotters. Brunch and various sporting activities, including a footie match, have been organised for the following day.
Guests have been asked to wear cocktail outfits, with the ladies specifically requested to avoid white. The bride is expected to wear a white Valentino gown at the ceremony, for which the couple have been granted a special licence as they are not yet members of their local parish.
The couple are currently enjoying a short break prior to their nuptials on the Spanish island of Majorca, where the supermodel has long maintained a home.
