Mariah Carey invites 50 guests only for her private wedding

American R&B star Mariah Carey and her billionaire husband to be James Packer have decided to invite 50 guests only to their exclusive private wedding set to be staged on the island of the Caribbean’s TMZ reveals.

The pair will become man and wife on the island where her soon-to-be husband is currently building a private $250 million resort with Robert De Niro.

Though a date for the wedding has not been fixed yet, the 45-year-old singer who was once married to Nick Cannon will only be inviting a small group of friends, who will be flown in on private jets.

No word on the exact date, but it’ll likely be sometime after mid-June. She’s been on a comeback after landing new management — a sold-out Vegas stint, a new 10-part docuseries, and her first European tour in a decade.

Since their romance came to light in June last year, Mariah and James have been inseparable, enjoying a Mediterranean trip where they sailed around the Balearic Islands on James’ lavish yacht.

The superstar’s ‘documentary series’, Mariah’s World, has all the hallmarks of a reality series – despite not wanting to call it that – and will follow her life behind the scenes of her international tour.

The show began filming while Mariah was finishing up her Las Vegas residency and will feature her entourage, backing dancers and singers.

However, her four-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan and James Packer will be largely off limits.

Mariah told the publication that her Australian billionaire fiance does not want to be filmed.

‘He’s a legit businessman,’ she explained to the New York Times.

‘It’s not really his thing to be, like, traipsing all over Europe and hanging out with all my crew and dancers and singers.
