The countdown is on for the wedding of the year.
Organizers have begun setting up for Paris Hilton and fiancé Carter Reum’s nuptials at her late grandfather Barron Hilton’s multimillion-dollar estate in Bel Air, Calif.
The ceremony is set to take place Thursday, but planners decided to get a three-day head start on decorating Monday, according to aerial images obtained by Page Six.
In the center of the extravagant backyard of the $60 million-plus property, a crew of people laid out wooden panels that will presumably serve as the dance floor. It covers nearly the full length of the backyard up until the in-ground swimming pool.
Closer to the back entrance of the house, there are two large floral arrangements in hot pink and white with the bride and groom’s initials, “P” and “C.”
Paris’ choice to exchange vows with Reum at her late grandfather’s former home was a last-minute decision, we exclusively learned.
“It changed about a week or so ago,” an invited guest told Page Six on Nov. 4. “It’s changed several times. Originally, they were going to get married in the church, but they switched it about a week or so ago.”
However, the hotel heiress, 40, had already planned to host the reception there.
She and Reum, also 40, were very secretive with their wedding invitations, which we were exclusively told in October didn’t include an exact location.
“It will be at a church and then [Barron’s estate is] the buzz for the reception,” a source said at the time. “It’s highly likely it will be there. The invite says Nov. 11. It’s a beautiful invitation. It came in a blue box. It sort of looked like a Tiffany’s box.”
The Bel Air mansion belonged to the Hilton family for 60 years but sold to former Google CEO Eric Schmidt for $61.5 million in May. Barron died of natural causes at age 91 in September 2019.
Although a rep for Paris did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on how the EDM DJ is doing ahead of her big day, she hinted at how excited she is to walk down the aisle by dropping a love song and music video on Instagram Monday.
“Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve been singing and listening to love songs and now I can say, I finally understand the unconditional love spoken of in some of the greatest love ballads,” she captioned a clip for her “Heartbeat” video.
“A love that isn’t just for a show, but a love that is enduring, consistent, devoted and kind. You are all of these things. I’m so grateful to be writing our love story together. 💍💒.”
Reum sweetly replied to the song in the comments section with three red heart emojis.
The couple got engaged in February after dating for a year. This will be the first marriage for the “Cooking With Paris” star and venture capitalist.
