LOS ANGELES, CA  [Thursday Oct.4.2007]  /WMQT.com/ -- Joel Madden will NOT be marrying Nicole Richie next week, because he will be on tour in Australia with Good Charlotte.

Last week, TMZ.com claimed the couple was planning to exchange vows on October 13 in southern California, and even named the wedding planners supposedly organizing the event.

The band is having a good laugh about it, and wedding organizer Lorraine Keseloff has denied her involvement in the alleged wedding.
