Having presumably waited until the last lingering memories of their original "mother" had vaporized from the minds of the offspring she once adopted with Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman is now comfortable to begin a life and family anew, this time with her former Playgirl model/Kiwi country singer fiance, Keith Urban. With the big day set for July 25 in Sydney, the couple is taking every precaution to discourage the presence of Australian paparazzi looking for that $1 million "kiss-the-bride" shot:

No paper invitations will be mailed to guests for fear they could fall into the wrong hands; instead, guests will receive e-mails and then follow-up phone calls from Kidman or Urban, according to the Daily Telegraph of Australia. What's more, invitees won't be told where the event will be held. Rather, they're being instructed to be ready to be picked up by a limo. [...]

Kidman is said to have spent $300,000 reserving all the helicopters in the Sydney area, making those aerial paparazzi shots nearly impossible. And to further frustrate the lensmen, the wedding will take place after dark.

While the pleasure-draining precautions may seem like overkill, they fall far short of what Kidman's wedding planner/ex-Israeli assassin security coordinator had originally planned for her special day, which began with a long line of parked limos dramatically popping their trunks open simultaneously, after which blindfolded and bound guests are helped onto their feet by armed ushers in ski-masks and force marched into a dark room to watch the happy couple exchange vows from a remote location over closed-circuit video. (Followed by raw bar, dinner and dancing.)
