Tony Parker "doesn't care" where he marries Eva Longoria.

The basketball star, who is set to wed the 'Desperate Housewives' actress in France on July 7, admits he doesn't know much about the details of the upcoming nuptials.

Tony said: "I don't care where I'm going to get married. It's a girl's thing. That's a question you should ask Eva."

The San Antonio Spurs star also laughed off reports they are having their wedding cake flown in from the US.

Tony said: "Why take a cake from the United States if it is France that makes the best cakes?"

The French-born athlete revealed Eva chose the wedding venue - reported to be romantic castle Chateau Vaux-le-Vicomte just outside Paris - and he was responsible for selecting the food and music.

It has believed Tony - who was voted the NBA league's most valuable player earlier this month - is planning to surprise his new wife by booking her favourite singers Lionel Richie and Jamie Foxx to perform at the ceremony.

Eva's 'Desperate Housewives' co-stars - Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross, Felicity Huffman and Nicollette Sheridan - are expected to attend the nuptials, along with Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

The castle, just outside Paris, will close its grounds to the public for the first time ever and more than 2,000 candles will be lit throughout the estate as darkness falls.

A fountain show in the gardens is also planned.

Eva is due to begin filming the new series of 'Desperate Housewives' in Los Angeles just two days after the wedding.

Earlier this week, it was revealed the couple are set to receive more than $2 million from OK! magazine for exclusive coverage of the big day.
