Sarah Harding - Sarah Harding Picks Wedding Venue

Sarah Harding Picks Wedding Venue

Sarah Harding has chosen the venue for her wedding.

The Girls Aloud singer - who got engaged to DJ Tom Crane on New Year's Eve 2010 while on holiday in the Maldives - has booked Cliveden House in Berkshire, England, for her nuptials this summer.

According to The Sun newspaper, the pop star has arranged for a ferry to transfer guests from London to the palatial mansion before flying out from Heathrow airport the next day for her honeymoon in Ibiza.

While guests at the wedding are set to include bandmates Cheryl Cole, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Nicole Roberts, one person who won't be invited is her father John Harding who Sarah says is "dead" to her.

She said in an interview with Live magazine: "My father is dead to me - I can't forgive him. After he and my mother divorced, he wasn't a very nice person and what's done is done. Looking back, I think the split was more destructive and destabilising than I realised because I started bunking off school and getting into trouble.

"I know it's harsh but I have no place in my life for someone like that. I came close to being in contact with him again but he talked to the press and tried to sell pictures of me as a young girl. He's a very selfish man and as far as I'm concerned he's gone."
