Jay-Z says he will marry Beyonce Knowles "one day soon".

At a Las Vegas press conference to announce plans to open his third 40/40 Club at the Palazzo hotel, the 37-year-old rapper - who has been dating the 26-year-old singer for over four years - confirmed they will tie the knot in the very near future.

Asked if they had set a date for the wedding, Jay-Z said: "One day soon - let's leave it at that."

The hip-hop mogul went on to hint he may even choose the Palazzo as the wedding venue, if the hotel's President Rob Goldstein buys Beyonce an expensive ring.

He joked: "I don't know if the wedding will be here.

"It's kind of comfortable. If Rob throws in the ring, who knows?"

Jay also revealed he is considering setting up home in Las Vegas.

He said: "Vegas is like no other place in the world.

"I'm going to ask Rob for advice. He's pretty good with the real estate. We'll see what happens."

The rap star's new $US20 million club has floors made of 24-karat gold and platinum, 85 plasma TVs and five VIP rooms.

It is scheduled to open in December.
