The Monday courthouse wedding of Jessica Alba and Cash Warren was so secret, not even the Awake actress’ brother, Josh, was told, and only found out about the wedding when contacted by Us Weekly magazine.

When asked by the mag what he thought of his sister’s shock wedding, Josh Alba replied: “My sister!? I’m going to have to call her!”

Once he’d gotten over his surprise at the news, he cleverly side-stepped the question of whether or not he thought Warren was a “good suitor” for his older sister. “Well, he’s my brother-in-law now!” Alba said.

The newlyweds didn’t tell any of their family and friends about their intentions to wed because they were so desperate to keep their nuptials secret from the press.

Jessica and Cash tied the knot in a private courthouse ceremony in L.A. on Monday, around 40 minutes after applying for a marriage license. The pair got engaged in December shortly after Alba confirmed her pregnancy to the media.

Alba had previously stated that she would not marry while she had a baby bump.

As the countdown to the Simpson/Wentz kicks into overdrive today, more and more wedding details are being leaked to the press.

And this one’s a doozy: Ashlee and Pete have decided to ditch that whole “white wedding” thing and go dark, telling their guests “to dress in dark colours” for their weekend nuptials.

A pal revealed earlier today: “[Guests] have been asked to wear cocktail attire, but to not be overdressed.”

The guests, who still don’t know where the wedding is to take place, have not been given invites. “Proper invites have not been sent out but instead guests have been given a save the date notice,” said a source.

However, with delivery trucks and workmen turning up at the Simpson resident in Encino daily, it makes it a little hard to keep the location secret. Crews have erected massive white tents with bright red curtains in the Simpson family’s California backyard, and have also set up a seating area which surrounds a fireplace and a cross.

Around “250 guests” are rumoured to be attending the Saturday nuptials, including Jessica Simpson’s latest ex, Dallas Cowboys quarterback, Tony Romo.

Singer Mariah Carey has wed partner Nick Cannon, Usmagazine is reporting.

A ‘reliable’ source broke the news earlier today to Latina magazine, calling Carey’s Wednesday wedding “very impulsive.”

The ceremony is said to have taken place at a residence in Eleuthera, the Bahamas, a property which Carey recently purchased.

Those in attendence at the shock nuptials included rapper Da Brat.

Carey and Cannon hooked up in March when the 27-year-old former rapper directed the music video for Mariah’s latest track, Bye Bye. The pair had been friends for years before working together.

Model Selita Ebanks, Cannon’s former fiance, told Usmagazine: “I have no comment [on their marriage] but wish them well.”

Carey has been married once before – to music mogul Tommy Mottola. The couple divorced in 1998.
