Umar Kamani, the billionaire boss of Pretty Little Thing, married Nada Kamani in a picturesque ceremony in the French Riviera on Friday.
The couple said 'I do' during two ceremonies in the south of France – after a fairytale proposal in August 2021 – leaving Nada less than three years to make plans for one of the most important weeks of her life.
Friday's ceremony took place on the Grand Allée at the opulent hotel and was certainly one for the books as it featured a variety of celebrity guests and musical performances from Mariah Carey And Andrea Bocelli.
She looked a vision as she walked down the aisle in front of her family and friends to marry the man of her dreams in a ceremony estimated to cost around £20 million.
Nada's white dress was designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri Studio, who were briefed to keep it simple and effortlessly elegant.

She said Vogue Arabia: 'I wanted the dress itself to be the detail. The neckline, the shape, the lines.
“I envisioned a dress that would stand the test of time and embody a sense of grace and sophistication that would never go out of style.”
Nada said she saw the sweetheart neckline on a black dress worn by royal and Hollywood actresses Grace Kellyshe knew immediately that she wanted that style and after that everything 'fell into place'.
She then had a discussion at Dior's Haute Couture salons, where they incorporated styles from Kamani's stylist Cary Robinson.
Nada was then shown sketches of what her dream wedding dress would look like. All that was left was to select the neckline, veil and fabric she wanted, in this case it was peau de soie.
The beautiful dress was made at Dior's Flou Workshop and Nada says she loves the dress because of its feminine sweetheart neckline.
She told the outlet, “I love the neckline. I've never seen it in a wedding dress before, so it feels unique to me.”
It featured a cinched waist, which showed off Nada's refined figure, a long, chic train, silk tulle and a beautiful lace veil.
Nada had three haute couture seamstresses and a pattern maker who brought the wedding dress of dreams to life.
It took a whopping 540 hours to bring the vision to life, a time frame comparable to that of royal wedding dresses.
