Billionaire’s
son Said Gutseriev, 28, married 20-year-old student Khadija Uzhakhova
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
decked out in wall-to-wall fresh flowers, the wedding set a new bar for
extravagance.
The young bride arrived in a beaded Elie Saab gown, whose wedding dresses range from £5,000-£18,000.
Her
dress was imported from Paris and reportedly weighed 25lb (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
Meanwhile,
guests travelled to the grand nuptials in a fleet of luxury cars
including Rolls Royces which were seen lined up outside the venue ahead
of the ceremony.
The
entertainment also did not come cheap, with Jennifer Lopez – who was
reported to have been paid $1million for singing for Gurbanguly
Berdimuhamedov, the president of Turkemenistan in 2013 – jetting in to
give the moneyed crowd in an energetic performance in a series of skimpy
outfits.
But
providing an unforgettable show was the least of J Lo’s worries as the
singer apparently told guests that pronouncing the newlyweds’ names was
‘the hardest thing I had to do today’.
