Italian newspaper Il Messaggero
emerged from the frenzy of a media hunt for a celebrity wedding site to report
yesterday that the "Mission: Impossible" star and his future bride plan to marry
at Castello Odescalchi on the shores of Lake Bracciano.
The identification of Odescalchi, a castle which has hosted a pope and kings,
may be the end of the trail for reporters who have been trying to track down the
Cruise-Holmes venue ever since the couple announced their nuptials last month.
But a receptionist at the castle said the report was not true and that it had
no such booking.
The paper wrote there would be a warm-up party with other celebrities on
November 16, a Catholic wedding ceremony for the pair on November 17 and a final
ritual on November 18 conducted by Scientology, the church founded by science
fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard and of which Cruise is a member.
The couple announced in October that they would get married on November 18 in
Italy, with Giorgio Armani designing Holmes' wedding gown. Since then, the
tabloid hunt has been on to find the exact location, with northern Italian lakes
Garda and Como also mentioned as possible wedding sites.
