The estimated reported cost of the wedding celebration came in at a mere $60 million USD. Lakshmi Mittal also holds the record for owning the world's most espensive house.
what made it so expensive??? Mittal family had sent out 20-page invitations in silver boxes, while 1,000 guests were flown in from across the world and put up in a five-star Paris hotel.
The five-day festivities spread across some of France's most famous settings, including the chateau built for Nicolas Fouquet, King Louis XIV's finance minister.
