Son of oil and media tycoon Mikhail Gutseriev, 28-year-old Said Gutseriev, married 20-year-old student Khadija Uzhakhovs in a lavish reception at luxury Moscow restaurant and banqueting venue Safisa over the weekend.
The bride wore a long-sleeved beaded gown designed by Elie Saab that was reportedly flown in from Paris weighing 11 kilograms and costing more than $25,000. Meanwhile, the guests came in Rolls Royces and Bentleys, with the groom's dad greeting them as they arrived. They were given a golden box engraved with the couple's names and wedding date.
The nuptial was also celebrated with star-studded performances, including by J. Lo, Sting and Enrique Iglesias. The Daily Mail reported that Lopez, who wore several skimpy outfits and sang some of her hits, such as If You Had My Love and Dance Again, was criticized via social media for dressing inappropriately for a Muslim wedding.
Following the ceremony, the newlyweds are expected to host another wedding party this weekend in London with rumored entertainers including Elton John and Beyoncé.
