A wedding is one of the most beautiful days in the life of the bride and bridegroom. Simply put, weddings can be classified as the most exciting day of your life. You are getting married to the love of your life and planning the journey. In between all these things, what walks away with the cake are the wedding arrangements themselves. Today there is a horde of different venues all across the world that are witness to some of the most extravagant wedding celebrations.

From film stars, business tycoons, and even royalties, here are some of the most expensive wedding celebrations ever.

  1. Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky

The interfaith marriage took place at Astor Courts and reportedly carries the price tag of a whopping $200,000. And that wasn’t the end of it.

The cost of the whole marriage is estimated at $70 million, which includes the wedding dress, 27 cakes, and the Ceylon Sapphire studded ring.
    Princess Diana’s wedding gown became so popular due to the 10,000 encrusted pearls and a 25 feet long train, which is why it is still regarded as the most expensive wedding gown ever!
