The couple don't want to star on the reality show

Jay Z had already reportedly declined his pal Kanye West's offer to be best man at his wedding to Kim Kardashian.

And now the rapper and his wife Beyonce have said they aren't going to the couple's wedding at all, according to reports.

The pair reportedly turned down their invitation because they don't want to appear on Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

A source told The Sun: 'Jay Z would be there if it wasn't going to be such a public event.'

We are sure public will be an understatement - we have big hopes for the ceremony, which is set to take place in France next month.

To make up for their no show, Jay and Bey are reportedly spending £100,000 on a luxury yacht for the pair's honeymoon, and planning a killer stag do - which sounds like a fairly sweet deal.

The insider added: 'Instead he's [Jay Z] making it up to his mate by throwing him the most extravagant stag do known to man.

We're sure the guest list will still be huge

'It will cost a small fortune - and to top it all off, he's chucked a £100,000 yacht rental in there as a wedding gift as well.'

3am has contacted reps for both Jay Z and Beyonce for comment.

It was previously reported Jay had turned down being best man at the wedding because he didn't want the publicity from the reality show too.

Life & Style magazine reported he wanted to distance himself from the Kardashian family when the cameras will be rolling.

'Of course, Kanye asked Jay to be his best man at the wedding. But Jay politely declined the request,' a source told the mag.

'Jay just didn't want to be associated with the Kardashian reality show. Kanye told Jay he understands why he would decline, but he's still very hurt.'
