Two sources have confirmed exclusively to BAZAAR.com that Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk are planning to wed this weekend, in a private and intimate ceremony at their home in the Hamptons.

While it was speculated the couple may have tied the knot in mid-April in a secret wedding, it appears the couple were indeed celebrating their engagement as it was originally announced–with celebrity guests like Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson, the bride's mother Blythe Danner, and other family and friends in tow. Their actual nuptials, however, are quickly approaching, according to the two anonymous sources with ties close ties to the wedding.

The couple confirmed their engagement to Good Morning America in early January, two months after the news of their engagement was first reported. "We feel incredibly lucky to have come together at this juncture in our lives when our collective successes and failures can serve as building blocks for a healthy and happy relationship," the two said in a joint statement to GMA.

The couple first met in 2010 on the set of Glee, which Falchuk co-created with Ryan Murphy. Paltrow was a recurring character on the show as singing substitute teacher, Holly Holiday. The two reportedly started dating in 2014, but they kept their relationship private until 2015, when they attended the premiere of Scream Queens together.

Falchuk was previously married to Suzanne Bukinik, with whom he shares two children, Isabella and Brody. Gwyneth was previously married to Coldplay's Chris Martin. The two have two children together, Apple, 14, and Moses, 12. The two "consciously uncoupled" in 2015, with Paltrow announcing their split in a personal letter from the editor on GOOP. It's likely that Falchuk and Paltrow will choose to share photos and details from their wedding this weekend on GOOP as well.

The GOOP Founder wore Giambattista Valli to her engagement party, and she thanked the designer on her Instagram, along with the couple's friends and family who showed up to "celebrate our ??."

While it's possible the haute couturier could be behind Gwyneth's wedding gown this coming weekend, Paltrow's close friends include Valentino's Giancarlo Giammetti, Stella McCartney, and other key fashion industry names. Given Gwyneth's affinity for white on the red carpet (but not to her engagement party), fashion-forward looks, and streamlined silhouettes, it's likely that the bride will don a look far more innovative than a classic bridal ballgown.

The details of Gwyneth and Brad's celebration–from the dress to the décor to the food–are totally under wraps, and will likely continue to be until Paltrow is ready to release them. Per her elopement with Martin in 2003, and her engagement to Falchuk in late 2017, one thing is clear: Gwyneth Paltrow is the queen of secret engagements–and secret weddings.
