Last Friday, after “a year and a half of anticipation,” family and friends of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise received a wedding invitation:

Us has learned exclusively that guests were notified late in the day to be free the weekend of November 16-19. The couple's rep, Arnold Robinson, confirms the wedding will take place November 18 in Italy--"All those details are correct," he says--and tells Us "proper security measures are being taken" to keep the vows private.

The invites are just the latest detail scratched off the couple's "I do" to-do list. Italian designer Giorgio Armani has confirmed to Us that he will create Holmes' wedding dress. "When I am asked by a friend to make a wedding wardrobe, it goes straight to my heart," Armani, who will also whip up Cruise's wedding wear, tells Us. "It really is an honor to play a small role in that milestone moment."

This wedding is going to be freaking great! You just know Tom is gonna do something weird like tackle the cake or recite his vows using facial expressions only. If I was a betting man (and this flashy tophat confirms that I am), my money would be on him fighting a baby. Watch out mothers!

P.S. At the bottom of the story, Us Online is asking commenters if they’d rather get married in California or Italy. Strangely, “who gives a fuck” wasn’t an option.
