Sofia Vergara can't decide what kind of wedding to have.

The 'Modern Family' star is torn between having a lavish Hollywood bash and an intimate gathering with just close friends and family when she finally weds businessman Nick Loeb.

She said: ''We have been engaged for over a year and we still haven't decided what we want to do for our wedding. He's letting me handle things and I'm not sure if I want to do something big like I did for my 40th birthday. It was so much fun but takes a lot of time and planning.

''I haven't made up my mind yet but I can see myself doing something very small and intimate with my closest relatives and friends.''

The 41-year-old actress - who has a 21-year-old son, Manolo from her first marriage to Joe Gonzalez - doesn't think getting married aged 18 to her childhood sweetheart was too young and says it was a ''relief'' to be off the market for two years.

Sofia explained: ''I was in love and in my culture getting married at a young age is not so unusual. It was a big relief because you get tired of being always chased by men. After I divorced, being a single mother gave me a lot of motivation to succeed and provide a good life for my son.''

The 41-year-old beauty is comfortable with always playing a sex symbol on screen and takes pride in being a woman.

She told Britain's Hello! magazine: ''So many people worry about beauty and sexiness being demeaning or denigrating to women. That's so ridiculous. Women can be beautiful and smart and sexy as much as they want. We're created that way. Why hide it or deny it?

''I've never had a problem with playing sexy roles. No one will cast me as a scientist or surgeon, although I trained to be a dentist. We like to be respected and appreciated but we also like to have fun with men and enjoy the romance and excitement that come with love.''
