Josh Lucas Planning to Wed This Christmas

Josh Lucas is planning a winter wedding at the end of the year (12).

The Sweet Home Alabama star, 40, confirmed his plans to tie the knot with his girlfriend last Friday (06Jan12) but the actor released little details about his secret engagement and bride-to-be.

Now Lucas, the star of new U.S. TV drama The Firm, has revealed the couple is hoping to walk down the aisle over Christmas (12) during a low-key ceremony "somewhere in nature".

He tells UsMagazine.com, "(We want to) get married over Christmas. We've been engaged for a while, but honestly, the show has been a bit of an epic undertaking, to say the least.

"We want to do it when we can enjoy it and take our time. We don't feel any stress or pressure right now and we want to make sure it stays that way".
