Nicole Richie told Ellen DeGeneres that she's ready to start planning her wedding.

"I've been on the road. I just got home, and so it's really going to be now that's the time for me to sit down and think about what I want," Richie says in an interview set to air Tuesday on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

So, first things first. Have they set a date?

"Not yet, but soon."

That won't be the only hurdle Nicole and fiance Joel Madden will have to overcome. Apparently, they have other things to negotiate, according to what Joel told Wenn.

"According to her we'll have a really big wedding. According to me, it will be really small."

Something tells me Nicole's going to win that fight- LOL.
