Did you think Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s $2.8 million wedding was extravagant? Or that the Kim Kardashian of China’s (a.k.a. Angela baby a.k.a. Angela Yeung) nuptials were down right extreme? Well, you better take a seat because these over-the-top “I dos” just might make you swoon. The daughter of a famous Russian oil tycoon just tied the knot and, between the 900 wedding guests and the need-to-see-to-believe $600,000 wedding dress, this might just be one of the most lavish weddings we’ve ever seen…
With an oil fortune that totes her last name, it was probably to be expected that the recent wedding of Madina Shokirova would border on the excessive. But this definitely takes the (wedding) cake… According to the Daily Mail, the nuptials took place at the luxurious Radisson Royal Congress Park hotel in Moscow, but the expensive wedding fun started even before the big day when the bride and her best gal pals (see photo below) headed to a resort in Spain for her bachelorette party — in a private jet, of course…
Come the big day, Shokirova donned a wedding dress that has us sweating just looking at it. (Seriously, how much does that thing even weigh?!) The fabulous frock was designed for her by British fashion house Ralph & Russo and reportedly cost a whopping $600,000. Yes, really. What could’ve run up that bill so high, you ask? Well, blame the gown’s elaborate embroidery, three-dimensional organza petals, and hundreds upon hundreds of dainty pearls and glitzy Swarovski crystals. NBD. Super casual, right?

Also, we have a serious question: What on earth does one feed 900 (incredibly well-dressed) wedding guests? Answer: A 10-foot tall wedding cake, naturally. Shokirova and her sweetheart served up a big day dessert taller than a professional basketball player and required a fleet of strong servers to carry the thing. And if that wasn’t enough to impress their guests, they also dropped an estimated $477,000 on entertainment for the night.
Can this family just adopt us, please?
