Isha Ambani is set to tie the knot with her childhood friend Anand Piramal, real-estate developer and son to one of India’s most prominent business families, today in her father’s 27-floor-building home in Mumbai, which is said to be the costliest home in the world.
Daughter to Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani, Ms. Ambani is currently being lavished with the wedding of – dare we say it – century. Pre-wedding celebration have been underway for a week now, and the luxurious celebration is nowhere near being over. Here at Gafencu we’ve kept a close eye on the ostentatious union, here are the highlights so far:

The Queen B herself graced Ambani’s guests with a private concert at the couple’s pre-wedding celebration at Udaipur. Reports are speculating her performance cost a cool USD$4 million – needless to say, a figure far greater than your classic wedding rent-a-band.
Star-studded Guests
