Zac Hanson of pop group Hanson will marry longtime girlfriend, Kate Tucker, this weekend, the group's publicist said.

Katie McNeil said, Hanson, 20, and Tucker, 22, his girlfriend of five years, will marry Saturday in Atlanta.

"The couple is planning an intimate ceremony with close family and friends," McNeil said in an e-mail.

Hanson and his brothers Isaac, 25, and Taylor, 23, formed Hanson in Tulsa. They are best known for their 1997 hit single, "MMMBop," which helped ignite the boy band craze.

The trio is now working on a follow-up to their 2004 album, "Underneath."
