"It’s something every little girl dreams about"
PrettyLittleThing founder Umar Kamani married model Nada Adelle in a £20 million ceremony, with festivities spanning four days.
Umar and his bride tied the knot in two ceremonies in the South of France.
The wedding comes nearly three years after he proposed to Nada with a £1.45 million diamond ring.
The ceremony on May 3, 2024, took place at the Grand Allée and was one for the books as it hosted various celebrity guests and featured musical performances from Mariah Carey and Andrea Bocelli.
On Saturday, Umar and Nada had a traditional Indian ceremony.
The weekend of celebrations brought together their celeb pals, from supermodel Naomi Campbell to actress Tessa Thompson, comedian Russell Peters, singer Christina Milian, Arabia editor-in-chief Manuel Arnaut, and Red Sea Film Festival Foundation CEO Mohammed Al Turki.
Umar’s close friend, ex-Coronation Street star Ryan Thomas, served as one of the best men.
For the first ceremony, Nada looked stunning in a custom Maria Grazia Chiuri-designed Dior gown which boasted an impressive train and simple capped sleeves.
Former PLT CEO Umar looked dapper in a classic Tom Ford Tuxedo.
Andrea Bocelli also added to the romantic ambience as he performed his iconic song ‘The Prayer’ for Nada’s walk down the aisle as a full orchestra joined him.
The newlyweds revealed that their first meeting at the altar was one of the most special moments of the weekend.
Nada said: “It’s something every little girl dreams about, but to do it in such style, in such beautiful surroundings – and of course to the man of my dreams! – was really a fairytale.”
Umar Kamani added: “What can I say? I was speechless when I saw Nada in that dress. It was the most emotional moment.”
Event planners Banana Split were hired to bring their dream venue to life, fusing a Western-style white wedding, and an Indian wedding.
After the outdoor ceremony, guests enjoyed an elegant old-fashioned black-tie dinner before a late-night afterparty, which included a special surprise performance from music icon Mariah Carey.
Mariah looked sensational as she cut an elegant figure in a semi-sheer Dior gown.
During the performance, the singer had all of the guests on their feet as she sang her heart out to some of her biggest hits
On Saturday, the couple celebrated again with Indian nuptials, as guests shared a glimpse of the couple in traditional white embellished outfits with garlands around their necks.
A laid-back barbeque on May 5 will complete the four-day extravaganza after a glam white party kicked off the celebrations on Thursday.
