A star-studded guest list, designer gowns galore, and a private Rihanna concert — and that was just for the Ambani pre-wedding bash. Indian weddings are known for being beautiful and lavish affairs. Still, Asia's richest family went all out this weekend for a three-day party to celebrate the upcoming marriage between Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, the daughter of Encore Healthcare CEO Viren Merchant. The pair are set to tie the knot in July.
The bash was attended by tech CEOs like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, and 1,200 other guests, some of whom crowded the local airport in the Indian state of Gujarat with their private jets. The whole event may have cost millions of dollars. According to reports, just getting Rihanna to perform could have cost between $6 and $9 million.
