Brad Pitt takes charge of his lavish wedding

London: 'Mr and Mrs Smith' actor Brad Pitt has taken control of planning his wedding to co-star Angelina Jolie this summer because he wants the ceremony to be perfect.

Pitt, who was previously married to 'Friends' star Jennifer Aniston, wants all the food and drink for the reception to be locally produced and has been very involved with the menu.

"Brad's been asking all the locals if they'll be able to source produce from the local area for the reception. It's certainly going to be a moment in local history.

"Brad's been tasting and looking up French dishes for weeks. He wants the perfect menu and, of course, the perfect wine to accompany it. That is all going to be locally sourced, too," the source said.

The 'Troy' star will marry the Oscar winning actress this summer at their home in the South of France. Pitt has asked Angelina's brother James Haven to officiate the ceremony as minister.
