Jessica Simpson Wedding to Eric Johnson: Fashion Mogul to Wear Pale Pink Marchesa Gown?

Jessica Simpson is just one week away from her wedding to Eric Johnson and new dress details suggest that the fashion mogul will go with a non-traditional look.

The couple, who got engaged in 2010, is set to wed at the upscale Bacara Resort & Spa in Santa Barbara, California on July 4. While Simpson, 33, wore a white gown for her first 2002 wedding to Nick Lachey, she has reportedly chosen a pink dress for her upcoming nuptials to Johnson, 34.

"Jessica wants it to be the hugest, grandest event of the year," a source told In Touch magazine adding that the former singer is "calling it a 'supersize wedding!'"

Simpson will reportedly walk down the aisle in a pale pink, custom-made Marchesa gown. Guests will reportedly feast on traditional southern barbecue, which is fitting considering the bride hails from Texas.

"[It] will feature a barbeque spread and fireworks," the magazine reported.

The Bacara resort, which can accommodate hundreds of people, sits on 78 acres and overlooks the Pacific Ocean. A select number of close friends and family members will gather at the Spanish-themed hotel to witness Simpson marry the former NFL star.

"It'll definitely be extravagant. I don't do things small," Simpson recently told the "Today" show.

The Weight Watchers ambassador got engaged to Johnson five months after they began dating and they share two children, a daughter Maxwell, 2, and son Ace, 10 months. Last month Simpson revealed that she was "close" to sending out wedding invitations.

"We are very close to sending out our invites," Simpson told USA Today at the White House Correspondents' Dinner in May.

"I've been very picky on how I want everything to look and feel. Eric's family alone is almost 90 people, so it'll definitely be a big event," she added.

The couple initially hoped to wed in Capri, Italy, which reportedly holds fond memories for them, however, they decided that it would be "too much" to ask their friends to fly to Europe, Us magazine reported.

The wedding will mark second marriages for both as Johnson is divorced from Keri Johnson.
