Beyoncé Knowles and Jay-Z are reportedly set to marry in a lavish $3 million ceremony in late November.

The wedding will allegedly take place on the Caribbean island of Anguilla.

A source is quoted on website MSNBC as saying: "Beyoncé has been telling friends it will be 'the wedding to end all weddings.'

"She feels like she's living a fairy tale so why shouldn't her wedding be equally magical?"

One tenth of the massive cost will be spent on $300,000 worth of Beluga caviar.

Beyoncé, who went on a liquid-only diet for her latest film role, also plans to feast on lobster.

The bride and groom and their guests will only drink Dom Perignon champagne, as rapper Jay-Z boycotted Cristal after the company's managing director Federic Rouzard made negative remarks about the hip-hop community.

Oprah Winfrey and UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan are said to be among the stars on the guest list.

However, it is rumoured that Beyoncé's father and manager, Matthew Knowles, has not given his blessing to the wedding.

He allegedly does not approve of his daughter's relationship with the rap mogul and does not think it is good for her image.
