London, June 03: It seems that pop star Beyonce may soon be walking up the aisle, especially after beau Jay-Z popped the question during a luxury holiday in Cannes at the end of May.
The couple, who have been dating since 2002, are reportedly getting set for a big autumn wedding in Hawaii.
"This will be the hip-hop wedding to end all hip-hop weddings," the News of the World quoted a close pal, as saying.
Jay-Z, who cancelled a tour of the US promoting his Roc-A-Fella business empire to see his lady love perform in the UK, has apparently promised Beyonce "the biggest diamond she can fit on her finger" when she decides on a design for her engagement ring.
Beyonce had recently revealed that she wanted to settle down and have kids.
"I want to get married and really want a family—in a perfect world I'd have two boys and a girl. You know someone loves you by the way he treats you and respects you. Me and Jay respect each other," she said.
A spokesman for Jay-Z however refused to comment on the couple’s reported engagement or wedding plans.
