Playboy beauty and The Girls Next Door reality TV star Bridget Marquardt has planned a unique wedding ceremony this weekend here in Las Vegas. However, it is nowhere close to being a traditional white wedding.

In fact, the 37-year-old blonde bombshell is getting “married” in black! When Bridget hosts the Halfway to Halloween Party at Eva Longoria Parker’s steakhouse Beso and Eve the Nightclub in Crystals at CityCenter, everything will be ghoulish.

Bridget told me that her boyfriend film director Nick Carpenter also will “walk down the aisle” with her in a matching horror outfit tomorrow night. There will be bridesmaids dressed in all black, and she herself will don a black headdress with matching veil before tossing a black garter. Their wedding cake will be black and covered with fake spider webs and blood!

Bridget’s hosting the party for guests who don’t wan to wait another six months to dress up in sexy and scary Halloween costumes. She’ll award $3,000 in cash prizes for the Top 3 costumes.

Naturally, I was cheeky enough to ask Bridget when she would tie the knot for real. She laughed: “Not yet! Let’s just think of this as a rehearsal for the real thing one day. Next time, though, it will be a white one!”

Peepshow star and former The Girls Next Door co-star Holly Madison promises to attend the Halloween party in a Hooters outfit, the one she saved from her days as a Hooters waitress in Santa Monica, Calif., before she was discovered by Playboy.
