Zayn Malik, Perrie Edwards Wedding News & Rumors: Best Man Niall Horan? One Direction as Groomsmen & Little Mix as Bridesmaids Next Summer?

Rumors about Zayn Malik and Perrie Edwards' upcoming wedding have been circulating now that One Direction have announced the release date of its third studio album, "Midnight Memories." Surely the group will be incredibly busy once the new record comes out, so how will Zayn make time fore his wedding? Earlier this week, reports claimed that the ceremony would actually happen "sooner rather than later," and possibly before Christmas. But today we have more sources claiming the opposite and saying Zayn will marry his Little Mix fiancée in the summer of 2014!

Earlier reports suggested an earlier wedding, though:

"They'd originally decided they wanted to fit in a wedding between October and May, but they're so excited, they want to do it sooner rather than later. Zayn is talking about where they could get wed. It's looking like it will be on a beach somewhere exotic and they'll fly everyone out there."

The insider added: "Ideally, they want to be married for Christmas."

Zayn is reportedly planning to spend around $1.88 million on the ceremony that he has described as the "greatest wedding ever."

"Zayn says money is no object to give Perrie the day of her dreams," a source revealed. "They will probably end up making all the cash back anyway if they do a deal to sell the pictures. They have the top wedding planners in the world to help organize the day and are setting their sights high."

The young couple already has the wedding party picked out, too, according to reports. As you might have imagined, the boys of One Direction will allegedly be Zayn's groomsmen and the ladies of Little Mix will be Perrie's bridesmaids! An insider also revealed that Niall Horan would be the best man!

"He's planning to give each of them a role in the wedding party and it looks like bandmate Niall Horan will be best man," the source said. "Perrie is drawing up a guest list. It'll be a very sought-after invitation."
