Michael Buble is getting married on April 6.
The Canadian singer – who announced his engagement to
Argentinian beauty Luisana Lopilato in January - joked that he had
planned on tying the knot on April 29, but was concerned the royal
wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton would overshadow his
nuptials.
He told the 'Today' show: "I was going to do it on the 29th but I figured I wouldn't get any press."
The 'Haven't Met You Yet' hitmaker – who has been dating Luisana since
2008 – recently revealed the couple plan to have two weddings so both
their families can be in attendance.
Michael explained: "We are doing one in Argentina and that's for her close family, and then we are doing one in Vancouver."
Meanwhile, instead of jetting off on a lavish honeymoon, the pair plan
to head to Africa to undergo charity work for children's causes
following the nuptials.
However, the couple's romance hasn't always ran so smoothly, as Michael
recently confessed his bride-to-be thought he was gay the first time
they met.
He said: "I don't speak Spanish and she had no English. But the guy did
so I just spoke to him. I was a bit nervous because of how beautiful
she was. I later found out she was on the phone to her mother the whole
time saying, 'Buble's gay. He's hitting on my friend.'"
