Westlife star to search globe for wedding location

Westlife star Kian Egan is using the band's upcoming world tour as an opportunity to scour the globe for his ideal wedding location.

The singer is planning to marry his long-term girlfriend, former Hollyoaks actress Jodi Albert, next year.

Speaking to the Mirror he said: "We haven't a date yet and have no idea where it's going to be. We are planning to travel a lot after the tour so we'll be searching for our dream location - it could be anywhere."

However, Kian's band mates are looking forward to his stag-do rather then the wedding ceremony.

Mark Feehily said: "There will have to be some drinking of course, but there'll be no stripper - he's too classy for that."

Meanwhile, one globe-trotting wedding dress was recently able to make it to the church on time thanks to helpful pilot.

The gown almost didn't make it onto a flight between Edinburgh and Belfast as it was still going through security at the scheduled take off time, reports Weddingchaos.com.

However, the kind-hearted pilot delayed his plane's take off by 20 minutes to ensure that it was onboard.
