Entertainment provided by Jennifer Lopez, Enrique Iglesias and an £18,000 ($25,000) designer wedding dress is far beyond the reach of most brides, but when the groom's father is worth billions you can afford to splash out.
Billionaire's son Said Gutseriev, 28, married 20-year-old student Khadija Uzhakhovs in Moscow this weekend in a jaw-droppingly lavish affair, rumoured to have cost up to $1 billion.
Held at the luxury Moscow restaurant and banqueting venue Safisa, which was dripping with fairy lights and decked with wall-to-wall fresh flowers, the wedding set a new bar for extravagance.
The young bride arrived in a beaded gown with a billowing skirt by Elie Saab, whose wedding dresses range from £5,000-£18,000. Her bespoke gown was reported to have cost between $1 million USD or 25 million roubles - £692,000 or £256,000.
Her dress was imported from Paris and reportedly weighed 25 lbs (almost two stone) because of the huge train and heavy embellishment and the bride needed the assistance of several people to carry her train and help her walk upstairs.[DailyM.]
