What was the biggest wedding: the record was set in the last century - no one has been able to beat it to this day
Weddings are usually celebrated on a grand scale, but the record for the number of guests at this celebration, set in 1995, has yet to be broken.
At that time, 150 thousand guests gathered for the wedding celebration in India.
To make it clearer, let's compare with Russian cities: slightly fewer people came to the wedding to celebrate than the population of Ussuriysk, but more than the population of Pyatigorsk.
The banquet was organised by former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and film star Jayalalitha Jayaram.
True, it was not she who got married: it was her adopted son who got married.
The wedding cost the Jayars more than $23 million.
Jayalalithaa reportedly did not take any bank loans to finance her wedding.
The ceremony was certainly memorable: just look at the decorations on the road leading from the temple to the place of celebration in the form of giant papier-mâché models of ancient Indian princes in erotic poses.
