Kim Kardashian is wasting no time becoming Mrs West.

The 33-year-old reality star has already set a date to wed Kanye, 36, in Paris. The two will walk down the aisle on May 24, according to UsWeekly.

That will be only seven months after the Yeezus singer got down on one knee to propose to the E! favorite in San Francisco with a 15-carat diamond engagement ring.

May 24 is a Saturday but guests will be flown in several days before that, according to the magazine.

The date is an interesting choice because it's when astronomers are predicting a comet will burst through Earth's atmosphere and create a brilliant meteor shower, lighting up the sky.

France is no unfamiliar destination for the couple. They have already been spending much time there in the past year - Kanye was in the City Of Lights as recently as Sunday when he took in the Givenchy show where his soon-to-be sister-in-law Kendall Jenner walked the runway.

On February 25 Kim told Ryan Seacrest's KIIS FM radio show her wedding won't be the giant affair that has been reported.

'We're having a super, super small, intimate wedding,' she told the Keeping Up With the Kardashians producer.

'As we go along, we're realizing we want it to be smaller and more intimate than people are imagining and thinking.'

Kim saw 500 people attend her nuptials to basketball star Kris Humphries in 2011. The event was over-the-top and filmed for her reality show.

It may be hard for the rapper to keep the event toned down, however.

'Kanye is obsessed with creating moments, like he did with the baseball-stadium engagement,' a source told Life & Style.

'Now he's working on all these huge surprises for the wedding, but as a result she has virtually no idea what is going to happen at her own wedding. She's been kept in the dark about a lot of the details, and that doesn't make her happy.'

The weekly also noted the stars have looked at marrying inside France's Chateau d'Usse. 

Bigger than the last: Kardashian and Kris Humphries had 500 guests at their 2011 nuptials - her third to West wedding will have even more people than that

West is taking charge of the entire event, planning everything, even what she will wear.

'She'll have one dress change,' Us' source said. And the gown will reportedly hug her hard-won curves - the beauty lost 50 pounds after delivering daughter North in June.

As for their child, she will be there as well. A source revealed: 'North will have a large role in the wedding.'

The couple will have to fly in their A-list friends, think Beyonce and Jay Z, into the European country.

Well, at least she already has the ring picked out: Her rock from West seen in Paris

'Everything will be very ornate, from the invitations to the cake,' a source told InTouch in January.

It's been reported the event will be televised, so undoubtedly the TV network will foot most of that bill.

Kanye has an apartment near the Champs-Elysees in Paris where he will be staying as he makes frequent trips to the City Of Lights to iron out the details of his big day, added Us.

It has not been reported whether Kim's mother Kris Jenner - who set up Khloe's nuptials to Lamar Odom in 2009 - will play a role in the wedding planning.

One thing Kim will have control over is the prenup.

Life & Style reported: 'Kim wants Kanye to sign the same ironclad agreement she had with Kris.

A source tells the publication the couple is 'haggling' over custody arrangements for North if they split.

The Kim & Kanye Wedding Special will air in the fall, according to sources.

The real star?: North West will be a part of the big day in a big way, according to sources
