Kim and Kanye set a wedding date

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have set a wedding date.

The couple have chosen Paris as their romantic destination, and will wed on may 24th – just seven months after Kanye proposed with a 15-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond engagement ring.

The two will walk down the aisle on May 24, according to UsWeekly and will fly guests into the city of love several days before the actual ceremony.

The date is an interesting choice because it’s when astronomers are predicting a comet will burst through Earth’s atmosphere and create a brilliant meteor shower, lighting up the sky.

On February 25 Kim told Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS FM radio show her wedding won’t be the giant affair that has been reported.

“We’re having a super, super small, intimate wedding,” she told the Keeping Up With the Kardashians producer.

“As we go along, we’re realizing we want it to be smaller and more intimate than people are imagining and thinking.”

Unlike Kim’s previous wedding to basketball star Kris Humphries, it would seem the bride has no idea what her big day will hold, as reports suggest Kanye is taking charge of things.

“Kanye is obsessed with creating moments, like he did with the baseball-stadium engagement,” a source told Life & Style.

“Now he’s working on all these huge surprises for the wedding, but as a result she has virtually no idea what is going to happen at her own wedding. She’s been kept in the dark about a lot of the details, and that doesn’t make her happy.”

The weekly also noted the stars have looked at marrying inside France’s Chateau d’Usse.

West is taking charge of the entire event, planning everything, even what she will wear.

“She’ll have one dress change,” Us’ source said.

And the gown will reportedly hug her hard-won curves – the beauty lost 50 pounds after delivering daughter North in June.

As for their child, she will be there as well. A source revealed:”‘North will have a large role in the wedding.”
