CODRINGTON, Barbuda, Mar 17 2016 – Mariah Carey and her billionaire boyfriend James Packer are planning to exchange vows at an exclusive ceremony in Barbuda – the Caribbean paradise known for its crisp blue water, pink-sand beaches and year-round tropical climate.

The deep-pocketed pair wants to keep the enviable event intimate with just 50 close friends and family, according to TMZ.

Invitations have not been sent out, but the lucky few will be flown out to the island on private jets.

The couple had another reason for choosing Barbuda – the Aussie media mogul Packer is currently building a $250-million private luxury resort here with Robert De Niro.

Locals have opposed the mammoth, high-priced Paradise Found resort, arguing it takes up too much land and that the 99-year-lease is too long. But the government has approved construction.

Carey and Packer have not set a date, but it’s expected to be after mid-June due to the singer’s prior commitments, according to TMZ.
