If Mark Wahlberg and longtime girlfriend Rhea Durham tie the knot in Southern California, don't expect his entourage to be in attendance.

"If we do it here [in L.A.], it'll probably just be us and the kids," Wahlberg, 37, told reporters at Monday's Callaway Golf Foundation Challenge at the Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif., benefiting the Entertainment Industry Foundation's cancer research programs.

"If we do it in Boston, I would say there'd be a lot more family members, so there'll be some fighting," he joked.

Being an action star can be a rough job. So Mark Wahlberg has made a few adjustments to keep himself safe-and-sound for his kids.

"I'm not the thrill-seeker that I used to be," the actor said a press conference for his new film Max Payne last Sunday. "No more jumping out of planes or off of buildings or any of that stuff. In between movies I tell them to wrap me up in cellophane so nothing happens. I want to be able to play with my kids."

Wahlberg, 37, plays a cop whose family and partner are brutally murdered in this film adaption of a video game. In real life, he's happily settled with fiancée Rhea Durham – the couple is discussing an August wedding date – and their three kids, Ella, 5, Michael, 2, and newborn Brendan.

While Mark Wahlberg is thrilled to be a third-time dad – to son Brendan Joseph, born in September – Brendan's 2-year-old brother Mike has a few reservations about the new family addition.

"My son is completely frustrated because he was the baby," Wahlberg, 37, said during an interview Thursday on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. "He literally said, 'The baby has to go to Florida!' "

"That's the only full sentence he's said," Wahlberg added.

Big sister Ella, 5, had the opposite reaction. "My daughter's thrilled," Wahlberg said. "She thinks she has a little baby – a little plaything."
