In October, the couple invited 115 guests to witness their loyal oaths on the island that is the resting place for the movie star and politician.
Over the weekend, the couple stayed in a luxurious hotel room for US $ 1,300 or about Rp 17 million per night. They added an element of Hollywood luxury to the wedding, including by using an antique trolley to bring guests from the wedding to the reception hall.
It's so cool, and it's one of those nice touches, said Baptiste, who estimated they spent $ 250 per guest on food and drinks at the wedding. She refuses how much money she spends on the entire cost of her wedding party. For many engaged couples, planning their dream wedding would include ideas taken from the marriage of the rich and famous.
Starting from saving the budget by renting a villa in a vineyard in France (such as Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez) or making a wall of flowers (such as Kim Kardashian and Kanye West), it is now easier to imitate celebrity weddings. This is due to social media such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, where celebrities, fans and even the owners of wedding venues display pictures of the parties, said London-based editor of Bridal Musing's Claire Byrne.
Social media has made everything belonging to celebrities to be accessible to the public, he said.
Fortunately for those who do not have a million dollars to splash out, the celebrities have also chosen to have a more intimate and relaxed celebration than the luxurious and glittery ones, Claire said again.
Even the most desirable marriages and involving very famous people like George and Amal Clooney, seem to be made romantic and less showy than usual, Byrne said. But of course, still there is a focus on luxury and exclusive properties.
Whether choosing a vineyard or villa or a white sandy beach - looking for a place that is already famous by the presence of famous movie stars would be easier to become a luxurious wedding location. Plenty of places to choose from, including popular places with celebrity celebrities focused on privacy and exclusivity, Byrne said.
The Four Seasons Resort at Hualalai in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii (where Jay-Z and Beyonce were guests there) became the location for about 140 weddings a year, with costs ranging from US $ 40,000, approximately Rp543 million.
Many engaged couples look for hotels with beautiful scenery, in part to create a luxurious but intimate wedding like the celebrities have been doing lately, said Jaclyn Jerstad, manager of a special wedding event at the Four Seasons. Weddings usually consist of 40 or more guests at an outdoor location bordered by other guests, looking out towards the sea and separated from other hotel rooms.
The wedding venue is surrounded by green trees and flowers and blue from the sea, Jerstad said.
Couples who will use it must pay uS $ 1,000 per guest for the entire event, often reminiscent of garden parties with candlesticks hanging on special outdoor hangers, he added.
(For comparison, the average cost per guest of a wedding in America in 2014 is US $ 229, according to The Knot magazine, and £ 226 in the United Kingdom, according to You & Your Wedding magazine.)
Recently, the resort became well-known among Japanese couples because many local celebrities are doing wedding receptions there, says Jerstad. Another touch of luxury: GoPro cameras that can be worn throughout the party and are awarded as wedding gifts.
The marriage of the rich and famous often has extras assigned to add a lavish atmosphere, but tends to be less conspicuous in the eyes of other invites, said Anne-Laure Renaud, founder of Et Voila Wedding, a London-based agency specializing in luxury weddings in French.
In addition to flooding weddings with flowers, many celebrity weddings use special lighting to illuminate special areas on the dance floor or in the dining room to create a romantic atmosphere. And they hired makeup artists and hairdressers throughout the day, not the usual hours, to help the bride change clothes and makeup from celebrations to dinner receptions, Renaud said.
That's about Following the fancy wedding party of celebrities. Thank you.
