Kim Kardashian To Wed Kris Humphries In Vera Wang Gown

LOS ANGELES (CBS) — Kim Kardashian has confirmed that Vera Wang is designing the gown for her nuptials.

The 30-year-old reality star, who is engaged to New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries, made the announcement on her blog Monday.

"Vera has been a close family friend for a long time and we had talked about this moment for years," she wrote. "When it came to picking my wedding dress designer she was the first person I thought of, No one designs gowns the way she does!"

The news doesn't come as a big surprise since Kardashian was spotted with Wang at her New York bridal boutique in June.

Wang also designed the gown that younger sister Khloe wore when she married Los Angeles Laker Lamar Odom in November 2009.

According to the wedding invitation, obtained by People, Karadashian and Humphries, 26, are set to tie the knot on Aug. 20, in Montecito, Calif.
