Two sources have said the event is being overseen by legendary celebrity events planner Mindy Weiss. When contacted by RadarOnline.com, Weiss’ office had no comment.
As of Wednesday, there were also large tents leading from the house to the expansive backyard of the estate. Security was also heightened as party preparations continued.
Despite the grand plans, a source promises it will be a smaller affair than many expect.
“She didn’t invite a bunch of her celeb friends,” the source revealed. “Nicole cut down the guest list because she didn’t want a huge wedding.”
On Thursday, Star Power Generators arrived at the property. The company has provided studio quiet generators to events like the Golden Globes, the Grammmys, and the Academy Awards.
