F1 Chief’s Daughter Has Ultra Lavish Wedding

Kim Kardashian’s nuptials ten days ago have been outdone by an even more extravagant wedding – Formula One Chief saw to it that his daughter Petra tied the knot in unforgettable style on Saturday, with reports claiming the event cost around £5 million.

Petra, 22, wore a white Vera Lang gown worth around £130,000.

Her and now-husband James Stunt chose the same venue as Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes for their special day in 2006 – a beautiful castle in Italy. The bride arrived for the ceremony in a white Rolls Royce.

Guests included the Hilton sisters, Sarah Ferguson and Princesses Beatrice. They were treated to £1million’s worth of vintage wines. Chateau Petrus alone costs no less than £6,500 per bottle.

The entertainment saw the Black Eyed Peas paid £800,000 to perform at the reception. In addition, the multi-day affair also included a caviar and Cristal pre-wedding dinner with entertainment by Alicia Keys.

Petra then continued the bridal theme in another white number as she celebrated a post-wedding brunch in Rome yesterday.

F1 Ecclestone Splurges on Daughter’s Wedding

Petra Ecclestone has been given a budget of £1.3 million by her Formula One Chief father, Bernie Ecclestone for her upcoming wedding to businessman James Stunt in Italy next week.

Petra, living up to her former title as “the most spoilt girl in Britain” looks set to exceed the already high expectations for the event which is to be held at the 15th century near Rome. This sumptuous location previously hosted the marriage of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes in 2006.

Rihanna had previously sung in the celebration of the couples’ engagement. For the big day itself, Eric Clapton has been hired to perform the first song for the bride and groom and the American group The Black Eyed Peas will also be providing entertainment for the night.

A further £40,000 is being spent on a midnight fireworks display on the night of the wedding, and a star studded guest list is expected be in attendance.

As extravagant as the wedding budget is, the cost isn’t likely to worry Mr. Ecclestone, whose £2.4 billion fortune has recently bought his daughter a 57,000 square foot mansion for the estimated price of around £100 million.
