The Rogue Traders singer and Australian X Factor judge, who is due to marry former bandmate Cameron McGlinchey later this year, said that although she was tempted by lucrative magazine deals for exclusive pictures of the big day, she turned them all down.
Bassingthwaighte told National Features: "It's very enticing financially, but I don't want to arrive at my wedding shrouded in umbrellas. We weren't even going to book a video person or a photographer.
"That's how we spend our lives, doing photos or videos, but our friends said we'd regret it. So we are having them there, but not very long. We want to make it as private and personal as possible."
Bassingthwaighte described planning her wedding as a "big job", especially as she is busy "working and being a mum" to 13-month-old daughter Harper.
She also said that she is "loving" being a judge on The X Factor, saying: "It's the best job in the world. It's also the hardest job, you are so emotionally connected and you're responsible for them in a way."
Bassingthwaighte recently revealed that she considered quitting the music industry after giving birth to Harper, but later "something clicked" and she is now working on her comeback single. She also said that she has become "feistier" since becoming a mother.
