Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s over-the-top wedding reportedly cost a total of $ 12 million, according to the Daily Mail. While that sounds like a very large sum, it’s not too surprising that the number is that high when you look at a more detailed breakdown of all of the extravagant details they put on their big day.
In addition to the cost of getting everyone to Europe and transporting them all (believed to be around $ 70,000 per person), a Florence mayor’s office spokesman told the Associated Press that the now former couple had spent a whopping $ 410,000 just around Florence to rent Belvedere Fortress. Kim’s wedding dress was designed by Givenchy’s former creative director Riccardo Tisci and reportedly cost around $ 500,000 – meaning the duo spent nearly $ 1 million on the location and dress alone.
Pre-wedding dinner in Paris reportedly cost the two an additional $ 4,100, with $ 65,000 going on hair and makeup that day while they spent $ 136,000 on flowers. As for the lodging of all guests, the lucky participants reported staying in a hotel in Paris that cost at least $ 750 a night, while their hotel rooms in Florence reportedly cost at least $ 885 a night.
The Kardashians reportedly stayed in an even more luxurious location at the luxurious Villa San Michele, which costs more than $ 1,800 per room per night.
It’s safe to say that this was an expensive wedding celebration!
