Fall Out Boy bassist and Ashlee Simpson to tie the knot

Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz and his fiancée Ashlee Simpson are reportedly set to get married this weekend, in a top-secret ceremony.

The pair who became engaged just over a month ago will apparently marry on Saturday, and guests have been given a save the date notice. The location is being kept under wraps, but usmagazine.com reports that guests will be shuttled to the wedding from a meeting point.

Earlier today, Wentz told Los Angeles radio station 98.7 that he was friends with Simpson for a year before they started dating in 2006.

"I was in the 'friend zone' with her for a good solid year. I spent a long time in the 'friend zone. I'd be calling her and following her around like a puppy dog,” he said

Simpson is reportedly pregnant with the couple’s first child, although the pair have yet to officially confirm the pregnancy.
