London, Aug 28 (ANI): Petra Ecclestone looked radiant in her 80,000 pounds white gown as she tied the knot with James Stunt in a 5 million pounds wedding.
One of the most highly anticipated celebrity events of the year witnessed fleets of cars ferrying 250 VIP guests including members of the royal family and hotel heiresses, the Daily Mail reported.
Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, attended the grand wedding bash along with her daughters Beatrice and Eugenie. Hotel heiresses Paris and Nicky Hilton were also spotted alongside their mother Kathy.
The 22-year-old F1 heiress was dressed in a white Vera Wang gown, with her blonde hair left loose accessorised by a diamond tiara and drop earrings.
The medieval town of Bracciano ground to a halt, as the bride and her father Bernie Ecclestone arrived at the Odescalchi castle, costing 310,000 pounds to hire in a vintage Rolls Royce, with former Formula 1 driver Jean Alesi at the wheel.
The castle grounds had been transformed into a "magical world" themed setting, with air-conditioned, flower-filled canopies to keep guests cool.
The air was filled in with music by Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Tenebrae Choir - "one of the greatest choirs in the world", The Black Eyed Peas who were reportedly paid 1.5 million pounds and DJ David Guetta, believed to have received 500,000 pounds for his night's work.
Everything in the fairytale wedding went off well except for a last-minute hitch that came when there were reports of the groom having been struck down with a painful throat virus, hours before the service. (ANI)
