Desperate Housewives - Longoria Lets Fiance Plan Wedding

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES star EVA LONGORIA has handed over wedding planning duties to her fiance TONY PARKER. The couple announced their engagement on 29 November (06) and are tying the knot in the basketball star's native France next summer (07). They have hired famed celebrity wedding planner MINDY WEISS and Longoria tells American publication Us Weekly she is letting her fiance "take the lead" in planning their nuptials. The happy couple plan to invite Longoria's co-stars from her hit TV series, as well as the San Antonio Spurs star's Texas-based teammates. Longoria reportedly doesn't want the wedding to break the bank, telling Weiss, "We are building a house right now (in San Antonio), so we just can't go over budget."
