Italian ARMY to provide extra security for Kim and Kanye

 

It's said to be the wedding of the year and Kim Kardashian, 33, and Kanye West, 36, are leaving nothing to chance.

 

Sources claim non-uniformed Italian militia have been drafted in to assist the pair's personal security team and will surround Florence's 16th century Belvedere fort ahead of the big day on Saturday. 

It's little wonder that extra resources have been called upon, as despite claiming the wedding will be an 'intimate' affair, the couple have reportedly invited 3000 guests to celebrate with them.

Video Games hitmaker Lana Del Rey is thought to be performing. 

Meanwhile, last minute preparations are currently underway at the historical venue- aerial shots show sound systems have been erected in the run up to the wedding. 

The party are then thought to be getting out of the romantic city of Florence on Sunday and heading to a villa six miles out of town, called Corsini Villa of Costello. 

On Friday, a magnificent French home where King Louis XIV used to keep a mistress will play host to a wedding brunch for Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.

 

The American celebrities and their friends and family will descend on the Chateau de Wideville, the 17th century residence to the west of Paris.

It is now the home of celebrated fashion designer Valentino Garavani who is ‘absolutely thrilled’ to be welcoming the wedding party. 

Police and other security officials could this morning be seen securing its main gate and perimeter walls as fans of reality TV star Kim and rapper Kanye began to turn up. 

Fresh flowers were also being delivered for what promises to be as lavish as the kind enjoyed by Louis, the legendary ‘Sun King’.

Kim and Kanye originally wanted to get married at the nearby Palace of Versailles, where Louis lived but permission was refused - although they will take guests on a guided tour at the venue instead.

‘Both of them think the French chateaus are awesome,’ said one of the US organisers of Thursday’s festivities at Wideville. ‘They love all that old fashioned style – they think it’s really classy. 

'They will be having an American-style brunch at the chateau – plenty of steaks and burgers and ice cream.’
