A Billion Dollar Budget: The Elaborate Wedding of a Russian Heiress

Okay, it's definitely not local, but the reportedly billion dollar over-the-top wedding of 20 year-old Russian heiress Khadija Uzhakhovs to Said Gutseriev, the son of oil baron Mikhail Gutseriev, could not be ignored. The Moscow venue was transformed into a garden oasis with a jaw-dropping floor-to-ceiling rose installation, dessert consisted of an elaborate nine-tier cake, and the reception included guest performances by Sting, Enrique Iglesias AND Jennifer Lopez. Minor details really, because the actual centerpiece of the big day was the bride's beaded Elie Saab gown, rumored to weigh-in at over 25 pounds. Here's a peek at the details not even Disney could dream up:
