Elizabeth Hurley is said to be on the hunt for a local designer for her summer wedding to Shane Warne Down Under.

The king of spin and his glamorous fiancee are planning dual wedding celebrations in Australian and Britain, when they tie the knot next year, the Daily Telegraph reported.

Hurley, who was previously married to businessman Arun Nayar, announced her engagement to Warne in October last year.

According to reports, Hurley is opting for a local designer for her Melbourne nuptials, which is sure to be an extravagant affair.

While sources have her settled on Melbourne wedding-dress-designers-to-the-stars J'Aton, the dynamic duo, Jacob Luppino and Anthony Pittorino, are keeping tight lipped about the future bride.

The couple have pet names for each other.

In an interview to Hello! magazine, Hurley said she calls Warne "Big Blond" and warne calls her "Luna" - among other things.

Hurley says of Warne: "I am extremely happy when I'm with Shane. We are very similar in many ways. Despite differences in our backgrounds and careers, we both come from very secure, loving homes and to me that says a lot."

Warne says of her wife-to-be: "I have a handful for her, too, but I usually call her Luna as there was a terrible paparazzi picture of her once looming in to kiss me, which reminded me of the massive mouth at the entrance of Luna Park, the Australian theme park."

Warne has three kids from his previous marriage. Hurley has one son, Damien, who she says is happy to have three playmates around at Hurley's Gloucestershire farm.

"Damian adores them all and rotates round sleeping in all of their bedrooms when we're in Australia," she said. "I love it when we're all together. I just try to be the best stepmum that I can."
