Newlyweds Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo are enjoying marital bliss — so much so that they have put the baby-making on hold, with Nick saying they don’t see any rush in expanding their family anytime soon.

“I don’t think there’s necessarily any timetable for it.”

“We’re definitely excited about being parents at some point, but I think whenever that happens, we’ll embrace it and be excited for it,” says the singer, 38. “There’s no real sense of urgency at this point.”

How are the couple going to spend the holidays? With Nick’s family in Cincinnati, of course.

“It’s our first Christmas as a married couple, so we’re looking forward to that,” Nick says.

And nothing says Happy Holidays like an ugly sweater.

“[Vanessa] went shopping for my sweater yesterday. From what I’ve seen in pictures, it’s pretty heinous.”

Newly married couple Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo have just purchased their first home together – a $2.85 million Encino, Calif. pad that certain puts my digs to shame:

The pair are making their home in the Encino, Calif. area of the San Fernando Valley in an 8,000 square-foot, 6-bedroom, 8-bathroom Spanish style house — leaving plenty of space for the two lovebirds to expand their family.

The home features vaulted beam ceilings, numerous fireplaces, a state of the art kitchen, large balconies and rustic outdoor living space with pool.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Nick sold his Bel Air bachelor pad earlier this year for nearly $6 million.

Ahhh….downsizing for the married life.

Former husband of Jessica Simpson, Nick Lachey, is doing his best to get new wife, Vanessa Minnilo, preggers.

The 37-year-old Sing-Off host ells E! News he’s “doing everything I can” to get Minnillo, 30, in the family way asap.

“Trust me, it would make me very happy,” he said. “Family is very important. It’s very important to us, and I’m sure that will be around the corner.”

Lachey told Parade magazine earlier this summer he wanted to become a father “sooner than later.”

“I’m getting up there,” he said. “I’ve gotta catch up with my brother. [Drew's] got two and I’ve got zero, so the pressure is on me!”

Minnilo is even on the family bandwagon. She updated her Twitter bio to include “wifey by night” and “wannabe mommy all the time.”

Nick’s got to stay one step ahead of Jessica Simpson at all times, so I am sure the duo will be pregnant in no time!

All kidding aside, I think they make a great pair. Hopefully their baby plans will soon become a reality.

Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo took preparing their wedding vows so seriously that they actually googled a how-to-guide!

The pair are now happily married. Their wedding too place on July 15th on the cliffs of the British Virgin Islands’ Necker Island.

“Vanessa and I have decided to write our own vows mainly because it makes it more personal, more meaningful when the words you’re saying to one another come from your heart,” Lachey, 37, said of his plans with girlfriend of five years Minnillo, 30.

“It’s something very special knowing these vows that I write to him and that he writes to me will never be said by anybody else,” Vanessa reveals in a preview clip from the couple’s upcoming TLC wedding special. “These were my words and my heart and soul that I’m giving to him and he’s giving to me.”

Quickly getting his fill of gushy vow talk, Lachey attempts to change the subject to his wedding-related task: their honeymoon plans.

“I’m a travel nerd,” Lachey proudly professes before struggling to pronounce exotic locales like “Anguilla.”

Minnillo isn’t necessarily concerned with where they end up (St. Barts), but instead is happy they’ll be vacationing as husband and wife.

“Regardless of where we go, we just know we’ll be there as Mr. and Mrs. Lachey, and I’m really excited about that!” she gushes.

If you want to check out watch these two love bird’s exchange their own personal wedding vows, you can catch their TLC special, Nick and Vanessa’s Dream Wedding, which airs Saturday at 9 p.m. (EST).

Either singer Nick Lachey didn’t learn his lesson the first time around or he’s been taking lessons from Kim Kardashian in profiting as much as he can from a wedding, but it’s been reported that he and fiance Vanessa Minnillo plan to televise their wedding…as Nick did with ex-wife Jessica Simpson their MTV show, Newlyweds.

TLC will air “Nick & Vanessa’s Dream Wedding” (working title), a special to air just weeks after the couple’s wedding date, which they are keeping top secret.

Lachey, 37, and Vanessa Minnillo, 30, have been dating since 2006 and got engaged last fall. He and ex-wife Jessica Simpson documented their own wedding and early married life on MTV’s Newlyweds.

“We’re lucky to have such passionate and loving fans, and we thought partnering with TLC on this special would be the best way to share the exciting journey we’re on with all the people that support us and our relationship,” Lachey and Minnillo said in a statement.

The special will feature footage from their joint wedding shower, Minnillo’s wedding dress search and the ceremony itself.

No disrespect to the couple, but…do people really care enough to watch this special? Nick and Jessica were such a high profile couple during their time, but do people want to watch Nick get married…again?

Vanessa Minnillo celebrated her bachelorette party in Vegas at LAVO over the weekend. “I’m about to get married. I’m about to get a ball and chain … but not yet and tonight’s my bachelorette party!” Minnillo screamed into the DJ’s microphone at LAVO.

Vanessa – and a group of her closest friends and family partied the day away, at one point even being serenaded by a Nick Lachey mini-me!

Although Nick Lachey wasn’t allowed anywhere near his bride-to-be, Vanessa Minnillo’s Las Vegas bachelorette party, that doesn’t mean he wasn’t there — Minnillo and her friends were serenaded by a Nick Lachey impersonator. The only difference? The impersonator may have lacked Lachey’s silky smooth vocals and he was also a little person, according to Us magazine.

But the presence of her hubby’s mini double didn’t prevent Minnillo, 30, from letting loose before she heads down the aisle.
The bachelorette was then serenaded by the impersonator who proceeded to tear off his shirt and perform renditions of Lachey’s band, 98 Degrees’, greatest hits.

But Minnillo and her guests’ weekend was just getting started after their night out — the group partied poolside while the blushing bachelorette donned a sash and crown at The Cosmopolitan’s rooftop cabana.

Although the pair haven’t announced their wedding date, with a wedding shower and bachelorette party already come and gone, the paps better get to sleuthing because we have a feeling it’s going down pretty soon.
