Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are reportedly planning an extravagant Arabian Knights wedding. Insiders claim the smitten couple are set to marry at Mexico’s luxury Maroma resort, after Tom saw a wedding there earlier this year.

The Hollywood actor has reportedly told wedding planner Kevin Lemon to create "the event of the decade." The 600,000GBP wedding that made Tom fall in love with the resort took place in May, and featured a romantic beach ceremony followed by a candlelit procession to the castle for the reception. A source revealed to Britain’s Sunday Mirror newspaper: "Tom was really impressed by what he saw. That’s when he got his people to call Kevin Lemon and they said, ’Can you make it identical but with millions of flowers?’" Last month, Katie, who has been romancing Tom since April this year, revealed she wanted a "simple" wedding. The ’Batman Begins’ actress told America’s W magazine she doesn’t want a glitzy affair when the couple exchange vows - but wants it to be low key.

The screen beauty, 26, also revealed she is looking to wear an understated, classical gown. Fashion editor Rob Haskell said: "She wants a very simple, classical dress and a traditional and simple wedding."

Tom Cruise is addicted to love - Aug 05
Tom Cruise is addicted to love, according to his ’Collateral’ co-star Jamie Foxx. The Oscar-winning actor claims Tom got engaged to fianc?e Katie Holmes so quickly because he loves to be in a relationship.

Jamie says the Hollywood heavyweight told him: "I don’t like not being in a relationship." The ’Ray’ star also believes people are quick to judge Cruise’s whirlwind romance because his life looks too perfect from the outside. He is quoted by American website MSNBC as saying: "Tom Cruise is like the Michael Jordan of acting. He looks like he has everything - and he does. He has never had a fall. So people are looking for him to trip and fall."

Earlier this week, Cruise was branded "vulgar" by legendary actress Lauren Bacall for apparently using his romance with Katie to promote his latest movie. The 81-year-old screen icon slammed the ’War of the Worlds’ star for gushing about his new relationship in all his promotional interviews, as well as flaunting his new love at premieres. She fumed to America’s prestigious Time magazine: "His whole behaviour is so shocking. It’s inappropriate and vulgar and absolutely unacceptable to use your private life to sell anything commercially. I think it’s kind of a sickness."

Biography

New Yorker Thomas Cruise Mapother IV (born July 3 1962) may have reached the heights of the heart throb-o-meter in the eighties but since his split with Nicole Kidman has ruined many a young woman’s fantasy with increasingly bizarre behaviour. So where did it all go wrong for the sofa leaping strange one?

Born in Syracuse Tom grew up in relative poverty following his father’s departure from the family, the actor has since claimed that he suffered abuse before the split. While Thomas III refused to pay child support, Tom’s mother Mary Lee Pfieffer moved her son from city to city, eventually settling in New Jersey where Tom, who once aspired to become a Catholic priest, then a Wrestler, took up acting. His first role was as lead in a High School production of Guys and Dolls.

1981 saw Tom take his first acting role, alongside Brooke Shields in Endless Love. He followed this up with increasingly important roles before in 1983 appearing in Risky Business, the underpanted lip syncing scene of which brought him to the attention of movie goers worldwide as well as to Director Jerry Bruckheimer who asked Tom to star in his next project. Rumour has it that the actor turned down the role of fighter pilot Maverick in Top Gun but in 1986 there he was on our screens, ready to become a cinematic icon.

As the 80s rolled on The Colour of Money, Cocktail and Rain Man ensured Tom’s place at the top of the Hollywood A list, taking him in to the nineties able to demand huge pay cheques for his work and earning him Academy Award nominations (for Born on the Fourth of July). In 1990 he met Australian actress Nicole Kidman on the set of Days of Thunder who he would soon work with again on the less successful Far and Away. Fresh from his divorce from Mimi Rogers, whom he had married just three years earlier, Tom whisked Nicole up the aisle before embarking on a roll call of more ’serious’ film work from The Firm to A Few Good Men and Interview With The Vampire.

1996 proved a successful year for Tom. He began a long relationship with the Mission:Impossible franchise and earned himself another Oscar nomination for the unforgettable Bruckheimer release Jerry Maguire. But this time seemed to mark a turning point for America’s most personable lead man. In 1999 he and Nicole took on the bizarre and controversial Kubrick movie Eyes Wide Shut which he closely followed with the Oscar nominated Magnolia which saw a further move away from his usual ’arrogant nice guy’ roles.

In 2001 the Cruise/Kidman van screeched to an unexpected halt. The couple, who had two adopted children - Isabella and Connor - were divorced just before their tenth wedding anniversary. Nicole, three months pregnant, later miscarried. Tom was soon in love again, this time with Vanilla Sky co-star Penelope Cruz with whom he was linked until 2004. He continued to create box office successes, from a second Mission Impossible movie to Collateral and Minority Report.

Following his split from Penelope Tom became ever more vocal about his beliefs as a Scientologist. The controversial religion was expected to affect his 2005 outing, War of the Worlds, however whilst the film still managed to net millions, Tom’s religious ramblings coupled with his unexpected relationship with Dawson’s Creek and Batman Begins actress Katie Holmes, sixteen years his junior, saw his own popularity wane.

Tom’s pro-Scientology and anti-psychiatry comments, a very public battle with Brooke Shields and some truly over the top, overacted protestations of love signalled the end of Tom’s relationship with Paramount pictures with whom he had worked as a Producer. Paramount weren’t the only ones to go off the actor either. The newspapers and magazines who not so long ago loved him and his movies turned against him, branding him a laughing stock and turning up the volume on the gay rumours which have plagued Cruise for so many years.

Tom and Katie carried out their fast forward relationship under the glare of the press - first bringing baby daughter Suri in to the world in April 2006 just a year after they first met, then marrying in November of the same year.
