Nigeria richest woman Folorunsho Alakija spends £5million on her son's wedding (Details, pics)

The wedding between Folarin, the son Nigeria’s richest woman, Folorunso Alakija, and Iranian beauty, Nazanin Jafarian Ghaissarifa, is reported to have cost £5 million around ($6.1million)

The groom, a father-of-one, is an entrepreneur, investor and cinematographer who lost his first wife to cancer.

Folarin’s new wife studied Bioengineering and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Manchester and was reported to be the ex girlfriend of Rob Kardashian.

The pair became engaged last year and had a traditional Nigerian wedding in Lagos in November.

The wedding was celebrated with a lavish bash at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, in England earlier this month.

Regularly used as a film location, the Blenheim Palace has been seen in Hollywood blockbuster movies like Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Rogue Nation, Cinderella and the upcoming Transformers: Revenge of the Knight.

The cost of hiring the whole Woodstock wedding venue, which is the ancestral home of Sir Winston Churchill, is only on application but hiring just the palace and state rooms costs £33,000 (N15 million).

Prices start at £300 per tier and Elizabeth’s clients include British, European and Middle Eastern Royalty, celebrities and high net worth individuals.

The wedding, which had all the trappings of opulence, has remained a topic of discourse on social media owing to the sheer display of wealth and luxury.

Their wedding story is currently trending on social media. It has emerged that the wedding had one million roses which were done by Jeff Leatham. The latter commands you.
