Sheikh of Dubai had built a stadium especially for the wedding event of his son, and the marriage cost 100 million dollar.


Sheikh Muhammad bin Rashid is the absolute monarch of Dubai with an estimated wealth of $13 billion, according to Forbes magazine. Though Sheikh Muhammad is known for his charitable work, as the king of Dubai, he also knows the ways kings lavishly spend money. There are many extravagant marriages that took place over the years, like the marriage of Prince Charles and Lady Diana in 1981 which cost $70 million if set for inflation. The famous marriage of Lakshmi Mittal’s daughter Vanisha, which cost $60 million after setting the inflation rates, was also a jaw-dropper. The above marriages may look lavish but nothing matches the extravagance of the marriage of the Prince of Dubai.

When Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyan, was crowned prince, and married Princess Salama, his parents built a 20,000 seated stadium for the celebration which was to last for about a week!

This marriage shatters all records and is the most expensive marriage to date. The ceremony costs around $100 million and lasts for more than a week. The sheikh visited every city on horseback and fed millions of people. The wedding gifts for the bride were arrived at the back of 20 bejeweled camels. However, all this hype and extravagance does not provide any assurance for the success of the bond.

Take the example of the marriage Liza Minnelli and David Gest which costs $3.5 million and lasts only for 18 months. Or the recent $10 million worth Kim Kardashian marriage: which lasted a mere 72 days.
