Preparations for Matthew McConaughey's wedding to Camila Alves are underway - as guests will sleep in state-of-the arts tents

Getting dressed for a wedding can be just as laborious for a female guest as the bride.
However, plans to impress the groomsmen might be a little more difficult while dolling up in a tent.
It seems plans for Matthew McConaughey's wedding to Camila Alves are well underway for the big ceremony in Austin, Texas, tomorrow - with a sea of camping equipment reportedly for guests.

The couple are believed to have provided guests with state-of-the art tents which line the back yard.


The luxury temporary abodes, numbered 1-47, are in four rows in the garden and are said to be kitted out with beds, cosy white fur rugs on the floor, and outdoor seating with doormats at the front.
They have also been equipped with what appears to be high-tech air-conditioning units.

Matthew and Camila, who got engaged on Christmas Day after almost five years together, have a three-year-old son Levi and two-year-old daughter Vida.
The actor appeared to be relaxing in a hammock as preparations went on around him, with a giant white marquis erected - no doubt where the happy couple will walk down the aisle.
Also visible from the bird's eye view were seven long, wooden dinner tables, that seat 18 people each - meaning if they have a full house, 126 guests could be expected at the ceremony.

There were boxes of candles that looked set to provide extra romance for the spectacular day.
Security were on hand at the three-story, seven-bedroom mansion, called Old Oak Estate.
Just two dozen close friends and relatives were thought to have been invited to the 'cosy' celebration, with those working at the event signing a nondisclosure contract, according to E! News.
However, it seems like a much larger scale affair will take place most likely tomorrow.

Camila was due to be honoured at the Step Up Women’s Network event in Beverly Hills today but instead sent a video message so she could remain close to the wedding plans.

The  Brazilian model, 29, recently said she didn't expect marriage to alter their relationship.

'We've been living a married life for over six years now,' she says.
'We have homes together, we have family together, we have kids, we've built a life together. So, we've been living a married life this whole time.'
Matthew, 42, recently moved his family back to Austin, Texas because he loves the laid-back vibe of the city and enjoys a level of anonymity he cannot achieve elsewhere.

He said: 'No one recognises you and no one asks you, "Hey, what do you do?", because I don't think anyone cares.
'Fridays show up sooner here. You want to get along in Austin, you want to get along in Texas, all you have to do is be yourself.'
McConaughey previously dated Penélope Cruz and Ashley Judd.
