Now that the celebrity marriage between Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban in Australia is officially a done deal, the newlyweds have split Sydney for their honeymoon in Fiji.

 

After celebrating the biggest wedding Australia has probably ever seen, actress Nicole Kidman and country singer, Keith Urban left Down Under for their South Pacific honeymoon in Fiji. As The Show Buzz reports, "The newlyweds kept a low-profile Monday, emerging only to have lunch with family at a luxury waterfront hotel. The couple was spotted boarding Kidman's private jet on Monday evening, prompting frenzied media speculation about where they might spend their honeymoon." While the couple's final destination is technically still unknown, most believe they will be spending their time in Fiji. "Kidman and Urban have been tight-lipped about their immediate post-wedding plans. Several reports have suggested the pair have spent up to $183,000 to hire out Fiji's exclusive Wakaya Club Resort for a week."

 

As with most celebrities, speculation as to their movements always runs high and Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's honeymoon is no exception. According to The Washington Post, Kidman and Urban may or may not be heading to the Wakaya Club Resort in Fiji. "The ultra-exclusive island resort is a preferred destination for superstars seeking to avoid the prying eyes of paparazzi and celebrity gawkers. It is also where Rolling Stones rocker Keith Richards injured his head after reportedly falling out of a palm tree in April. However, Fiji was once a favored vacation spot for Kidman and her former husband, Tom Cruise, prompting speculation that she and Urban will opt instead for a luxury resort on Tahiti's Bora Bora island."

 

On a related topic, the man who married the couple, Father Paul Coleman, reveals to ABC's Good Morning America that their first kiss as husband and wife was 'above average'. "I wouldn't say it was the longest [kiss] in history - I've seen some long ones - but it was not too bad," adding, "Above average, if you want to know the truth." When asked how Nicole Kidman looked on her big day, Coleman replied, "She sort of had a radiant glow around her," adding further, "It took my breath away, and it took the breath of Keith - and most of us - away."

 

The couple first met in early 2005 at an awards dinner in L.A. honoring the actress and singer, hosted by the Australian Government.
