The 20 Most Expensive Celebrity Weddings

How much would you spend on a wedding if money were no object? For most celebrities it isn't, and the result is wedding costs skyrocketing into the hundreds of thousands and even millions of dollars. Forbes recently compiled a list of the 20 most expensive celebrity weddings, going back as far as 20 years. Whether paying for 50,000 exotic flowers or renting an entire island to escape the paparazzi, celebrities spare no expense when it comes to having exactly what they want. The top 5 spenders, in order, are:

Liza Minelli and David Gest: $3.5 million
Paul McCartney and Heather MIlls: $3 million
Elizabeth Hurley and Arun Nayar: $2.5 million
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes: $2 million
Elizabeth Taylor and Larry Fortensky: $2 million

Others on the list of 20 include David and Victoria Beckham, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, and of course Donald Trump and Melania Knauss.

Sadly, 40% of the couples on the list are now divorced (including obviously Brad and Jennifer above), so feel free to check out this list of the most expensive celebrity divorces -- a few made both lists!

Check out the outfit on the left, this is not the entertainment at the wedding this is the bride, Priya Sachdev during just one of the parties that made up her multi-day wedding to hotelier Vikram Chatwal (he of the much-maligned Dream Hotel). Style.com has a portfolio of the incredibly extravagant wedding that lasted seven nights and swept through three Indian cities. Imported flowers, flowing champagne and three jets to cart the 300-plus guests around were just part of the impressive affair. The wedding festivities took place in Mumbai,Udaipur and Delhi where the groom rode through the streets in a horse-drawn carriage. And forget Paris Hilton as an indicator of a truly spectacular party, you know it's really going to be fun when Bill Clinton shows up. The lovely couple are now honeymooning in the Maldives where Chatwal could perhaps get some much-needed lessons in hotel management.
