WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is set to marry his fiance Stella Morris in London's Bilmarsh Prison on Wednesday. Where they are kept during the trial.
According to the French news agency AFP, Assange, 50, is trying to avoid steps that could lead to his expulsion from Britain and a lawsuit against the United States over the release of classified files on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
Last year, Britain's Supreme Court rejected Assange's appeal, signaling a long-running legal battle.
Assange and Morris announced their engagement in November, after which they were allowed to marry at Belmarsh Prison in south London, where Assange has been remanded.
Earlier, the Donut Extradite Assange (DEA) group said the wedding would be conducted by a registrar with only four guests, including two witnesses and two security guards.
Guests must leave immediately after the ceremony.
According to the DEA, British fashion designer Wayne Westwood, a longtime supporter of the Australian publisher, has designed Morris' wedding dress.
The fish designer says he also provided Assange with traditional Scottish clothing.
Morris, 35, will cut the cake on her wedding day and address Assange's supporters outside the jail.
Assange, who appeared on WikiLeaks as a symbol of media freedom, accused Washington of trying to block his reporting.
He also said that if I was found guilty of violating US law, I would be willing to spend the rest of my life in prison.
Critics of Assange say he acted irresponsibly by disclosing classified information without precaution.
Assange had earlier won the extradition case and told his lawyers in court that sending him to the United States would be "suicidal."
In response, the US government said Assange would not be held incommunicado.
