The story of the most expensive wedding in the world
International newspapers reported on the news of the most expensive wedding in the world, which was the wedding of the son of Indian businessman Mukesh Ambani. Mukesh Ambani is considered the richest man in Asia, ranking 10th on Forbes magazine's list of the world's richest people, with an estimated fortune of $117 billion.
Private planes were arranged for the world's rich and famous, and there was a special artistic performance by the star Rihanna.
Mukesh Ambani, the richest man in Asia and an Indian billionaire, is planning to amaze everyone with his youngest son's wedding after the legendary wedding of his eldest daughter, Isha, in 2018. Writers have already revealed the details of the dazzling wedding, scheduled for July, but the ceremonies have already begun.
The grand celebrations in India for the pre-wedding of Mukesh Ambani's youngest son, attended by numerous world celebrities, continue to pique the curiosity of many.
Bloomberg Economic Agency estimated the cost of the wedding to be over $100 million, which includes arranging private flights from around the world for the guests, their stays in 5-star hotels, the expenses of preparing food by 21 elite international chefs, the services of dozens of hairdressers, and other amenities.
The most notable guests at the wedding include Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai, Ivanka Trump, and many others on the invitation list for the legendary wedding celebrations. The celebrations have already begun for the daughter of Indian billionaire Shri Merchant, Radhika Anant, and the groom, Ambani, son of the richest man in India and Asia, Mukesh Ambani.
Guests started arriving on private planes on Friday, and among them was Ivanka Trump, the daughter of former US President Donald Trump, who was seen wearing a "sari" (the traditional Indian dress) brocaded with gold and silver threads, accompanied by her husband and their daughter.
The first day included a cocktail party, and on the second day, the guests were taken on a wild excursion to visit an animal rescue and shelter center owned by the groom. In the evening, the guests participated in the "Roj Festival," where they were asked to wear dazzling Indian clothes.
The 3-day pre-wedding party offered a glimpse of the extravagance to be expected at the wedding in July.
Media reports mentioned that 500 dishes were served to the guests, many of whom arrived on chartered planes, and the food was prepared by around 100 chefs.
Mukesh Ambani, the groom's father, has a business empire that extends to the oil, communications, textile, and chemical sectors. He is the richest man in Asia, ranking 10th on Forbes magazine's list of the world's richest people, with an estimated fortune of $117 billion.
Ambani and his company, Reliance Industries Limited, which is one of the largest oil and telecommunications companies in India, gained fame after surpassing his Chinese counterpart, Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba Group Holding Limited, at the top of the list of the richest people in Asia in 2018.
As for the secret of his wealth, Ambani (66 years old) is the tenth richest man in the world with a net worth of $117 billion, according to Forbes magazine. Reliance Industries is a massive conglomerate with annual revenues exceeding $100 billion, involved in petrochemicals, oil and gas, communications, and retail trade, as reported by the Associated Press.
Ambani owns Reliance, a company founded by his father in 1966, which now has over 420 million subscribers and offers 5G mobile services. Earlier this week, Disney concluded an $8.5 billion deal to merge its business in India with Ambani's Reliance Industries, forming a new media conglomerate.
Critics of Ambani argue that his company has flourished primarily due to political connections that have helped companies like Ambani's thrive.
Mukesh Ambani (66 years old) has begun passing leadership to his two sons and daughter. The eldest son, Akash Ambani, is now the Chairman of Reliance Jio, while his daughter Isha oversees retail sales. The youngest, Anant, who is getting married in July, has joined the new energy sector.
The guest list for the wedding includes not only artistic celebrities but also some of the world's most important politicians. The wedding ceremony will last for 5 months and will include various activities and events.
Anant Ambani and his fiancée, Radhika Merchant, plan to marry on July 12.
