Ellen Degeneres and Portia DeRossi are reportedly planning to remarry in Australia, in a lavish ceremony celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary. 

The 59-year-old talk show host and the 44-year-old actress will apparently renew their vows in front of friends, family and celebrity guests. Australian Women's Day reports the guest list includes Hugh Jackman and wife Deborra-Lee Furness, Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Aniston, Pink and Julia Roberts.

The couple tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at their Beverly Hills home in August 2008, when gay marriage became legal.

A source close to the couple told the magazine that the wedding will be a re-creation of those 2008 vows, "with a few new twists". 

"This second wedding will be a fresh start for them," the source said. "They're so in love.". 

Arrested Development actress DeRossi is from Australia, where they are currently holding a marriage equality poll. 

Both women have been strong campaigners for the 'Vote Yes' campaign, with DeGeneres tweeting a sweet message about her wife to her 73 million followers last month. 

"I appreciate my wife every day. I can't imagine calling her anything else. #WifeAppreciationDay #AustraliaMarriageEquality #VoteYes," DeGeneres wrote.
