The highly anticipated wedding of Anant Ambani, the 29-year-old youngest son of Indian tycoon Mukesh Ambani, and his girlfriend Radhika Merchant is set to take place on July 12. The luxurious wedding promises to be a spectacle like no other, with pre-wedding celebrations that have been ongoing for over four months.
The extravagant festivities began in March and featured a fiesta attended by 1,200 guests, including billionaires such as Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Sunder Pichai, and Ivanka Trump. Rihanna was hired to perform and a light show with 5,500 drones was featured. Guests were encouraged to wear jungle-themed clothing as they visited an animal rescue center run by Anant, which houses abused, injured, and endangered animals.
An army of Indian hairdressers, makeup artists, and clothing designers were hired to help guests get ready for the celebrations. They were offered 500 different dishes prepared by 100 chefs and an additional community feeding service was organized for 51,000 people living in villages near Jamnagar.
The couple also organized a Mediterranean cruise for 1,200 people that included stops in Europe and performances by Katy Perry, Backstreet Boys
