Miley Cyrus is likely to get married next year.

The 19-year-old star got engaged to Liam Hemsworth earlier this year. Her cousin Marilyn Cyrus is in no doubt that the two are meant for each other and expects them to tie the knot in 2013.

"I would say next year that they'll get married," Marilyn said. "I'm sure it won't happen overnight. There's no rush. There's no reason to."

The news may come as a surprise, as Miley recently told a magazine she is in no rush to walk down the aisle. The singer-and-actress is enjoying being engaged and feels committed to Liam because of the promise they have made.

Marilyn also spoke about the sort of wedding she thinks Miley will have. The star's family member warned it is unlikely to be a traditional affair.

"It could be a wedding where her dress ends up in the mud," Marilyn laughed to Celeb Buzz.com. "It's just a Miley thing. She has these little quirks. Though she's grown up, there's still a lot of kid in her."

Marilyn is in no doubt that the ceremony will be magical, as the Disney star has always dreamed of getting married.

"Like all young girls, she had her wedding planned for a while," she said. "It's like a fairy-tale."
