KATIE Price had vowed not to get married in Las Vegas again after her short-lived marriage to Alex Reid.
The 43-year-old is due to tie the knot to Carl Woods in the coming days after jetting into Sin City, having previously wed there in 2010.
A source said: “Katie always said marrying Alex in Vegas was a huge mistake – she didn’t have her kids there, she felt like it was rushed and she barely knew him.
“The whole thing was a snap decision and she arranged the whole thing while he was in CBB.”
They added: “But she changed her mind for Carl – she knows how much he loves the city, and wants to tie the knot as soon as possible.”
Katie’s union with cage fighter Alex, 46, was her second, after breaking up with singer Peter Andre.
The pair got together eight weeks after her split from Peter, with their wedding taking place six months later.

The wedding saw them say ‘I do’ in a 20-minute ceremony at the Wynn Inn before they headed to Spearmint Rhino strip club, with many later describing the day’s event as ‘tacky’.
Unfortunately, less than a year later Katie confirmed their split saying, “We all make mistakes, and this was one.”
Now the mum-of-five has landed in Vegas with a suitcase marked “Katie Woods”.
Katie and Carl were spotted applying for the paperwork for their wedding on Wednesday in Sin City.
The loved-up couple arrived mid-morning and it took them about 15 minutes to get the official seal of approval in person, which is legally required of those marrying in Las Vegas.
Katie was overheard jokingly telling the clerk “Ooh, signing our life away” before the happy couple raised their right hands to swear the information they had given was truthful.
Katie is currently facing a possible prison sentence next month after pleading guilty to drink driving while disqualified and taking drugs after a crash near her home in Sussex in September.
OK magazine reports Katie and Carl will marry this weekend in Vegas – and his parents are flying out to watch.
It’ll be Katie’s fourth marriage – after previous husbands Peter Andre, Kieran Hayler and Alex Reid – and Carl’s first.
