Step aside Kimmy K! This is what a €27.5m celebrity wedding looks like
There are weddings and then are weddings.
In 2014 we were blown away by Kim Kardashian’s incredibly luxurious wedding to Kanye West. The whole thing supposedly cost €10.5 million.
However, that’s practically thrifty in comparison to Angelababy and Huang Xiaoming’s extravagant ceremony.
Angelababy has become known as the Kim K of China, she’s a former model and actress. She wasn’t going for the budget version of Kim and Kanye’s nuptials either, she shelled out €27.5 million for her big day.
The 26-year old and her actor husband celebrated with just 2,000 of their closest friends at the Shanghai Exhibition Centre. For reference, the royal wedding of Kate and William supposedly cost €29 million.
The venue was outfitted with screens that displayed photos of the handsome couple, taken during a pre-wedding shoot in Paris. At which the bride posed in a series of Elie Saab couture gowns.
What does it look like inside such an event?
It looks like a ring worth more than $1.5 million by Parisian designer Chaumet- diamonds basically.
There was also the custom Christian Dior gown which Forbes reports took five months to create and featured “15 feet of ivory satin organza, 165 feet of tulle, a 10-foot-long train and nearly a hundred hand-cut rose bouquets made of Chantilly lace.”
There is no exact price for the dress to be found, but custom Dior is probably going to be hitting the six figure mark.
Oh, and the cake! Three metres of cake that is rumoured to have taken a month to assemble. It was shaped like a carousel and everything Pinterest dreams are made of.
The celebrity couple are not the first, and definitely won’t be the last, to receive commercial sponsorship for their wedding. They also needed over 200 florists to help create the ‘Princesses’ Garden of Eden’ flower display.
We wonder if that included the gift bags that guests left the party with-which included smart phones, obviously.
If you didn't make the invite list (or perhaps your RSVP got lost in all the diamonds) Angela thoughtfully provided a live stream of the wedding, the video below shows the highlights:
