How to ensure your truly extravagant four-day wedding comes to a fairytale end...with a dusting of Disney magic, of course.

The nuptials of the year so far, between Pretty Little Thing's billionaire founder Umar Kamani and his model wife Nada Adelle, finally came to a close on Monday, after a long weekend of celebrations in the South of France that are estimated to have cost the couple millions of pounds.

Guests at the bash, which included guest musical appearances by Mariah Carey and Andrea Bocelli, were treated to the kind of Disney-themed brunch you might ordinarily enjoy in Orlando, complete with a vintage brass band and a delicious-looking buffet.  

Those invited, including Naomi Campbell, Steven Bartlett and Anthony Joshua, had the chance to mingle with the likes of Minnie and Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Donald Duck and other familiar Disney characters as they tucked into finger sandwiches, avo on toast and colourful salads.

A little Disney magic: TV star guest Ryan Thomas shared footage of the newlyweds outside the five-star Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc hotel ahead of the themed Disney brunch 

The bash, at the five-star Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, marked a suitably luxe end to a lavish wedding that had seen the fashion entrepreneur spend an estimated £20million of his vast retail fortune on getting spliced, including jetting dozens of guests over to the Cote D'Azur to watch them get married not once, but twice. 

One guest, Serena Kanda, thanked the couple for a 'such a magical weekend', sharing footage from the Disney brunch. 

And TV star Ryan Thomas also shared footage on his Instagram stories of the couple arriving for the brunch, with Minnie and Mickey Mouse by their side.

The fashion brand CEO, 36, and his bride, 31, have pulled out all the stops with two jaw-dropping ceremonies, a welcome 'white party' on Thursday evening under the stars before closing off with a barbecue and then brunch.  

Friday's Western-style ceremony took place at the Grand Allée in the lavish hotel and was certainly one for the books as it hosted a variety of celebrity guests and featured musical performances from Mariah Carey and Andrea Bocelli.

Following their celebrations on Friday, Umar and Nada celebrated again on Saturday with a traditional Indian ceremony, which was equally extravagant. 

However, the just-married couple were still not finished - as a relaxed barbecue on Sunday continued the whirlwind four-day bash, followed by the cartoon-inspired Monday morning brunch. 

The weekend of celebrations brought together their celeb pals, from supermodel Naomi Campbell to actor Tessa Thompson, comedian Russell Peters, singer Christina Milian, Arabia editor-in-chief Manuel Arnaut, and Red Sea Film Festival Foundation CEO Mohammed Al Turki.

For Friday's ceremony Nada looked radiant in a custom Maria Grazia Chiuri-designed Dior gown which boasted an impressive train and simple capped sleeves.

Andrea Bocelli also added to the romantic ambience as he performed one of his greatest songs 'The Prayer' for Nada's walk down the aisle as a full orchestra joined him. 

In an exclusive interview with Vogue Arabia, the newlyweds revealed that their first meeting at the altar on Friday was among the most special moments of the weekend. 

Nada shared: '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.' 

In the couple's first wedding ceremony, Nada had the aisle of dreams with a lengthy white carpet lined with flowers

Umar said: 'What can I say? I was speechless when I saw Nada in that dress. It was the most emotional moment'

Umar added: 'What can I say? I was speechless when I saw Nada in that dress. It was the most emotional moment.' 

And speaking about her stunning Dior wedding dress, Nada said: 'I wanted the dress itself to be the detail. The neckline, the shape, the lines.

'I envisioned a gown that would stand the test of time, embodying a sense of grace and sophistication that would never go out of style.'

Nada said when she saw a sweetheart neckline on a black dress worn by royal and Hollywood actress Grace Kelly, she immediately knew that she wanted that style and everything 'fell into place' after that.

She then had a discussion at Dior's Haute Couture salons, where they incorporated styles from Kamani's stylist Cary Robinson.

Nada was then presented with sketches of what her dream wedding dress would look like. All that was left was to select the neckline, veil and fabric she wanted, in this case it was peau de soie.

The stunning frock was crafted in Dior's Flou Workshop and Nada said she adores the dress because of the feminine sweetheart neckline.

She told the outlet: 'I adore the neckline. I've never seen it done in a wedding dress before, so it feels unique to me.'

On Saturday, the couple married in a second ceremony (pictured with Kate and Rio Ferdinand)

After the Indian ceremony, the couple was showered with bank notes

Nada had three haute couture seamstresses and a pattern maker bring the wedding dress of dreams to life.

It took a whopping 540 hours to bring the vision to life, a similar timeframe to that of royal wedding dresses.

The couple also hired event planners Banana Split to bring their dream venue to life, fusing a western style white wedding, and an Indian wedding.

After the romantic al fresco 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. 

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.

At yet another wedding reception, the couple were even showed in bank notes as they were surrounded by their seemingly limitless numbers of friends.

The happy couple spared no expense for the welcome party as they hired henna tattoo artists and fire and belly dancers. 

A stunning fireworks display also lit up the sky and served as a highlight of the night for the VIP guests. 

For the occasion, Nada dressed in a stunning custom-made Zuhair Murad gown and completed the look with several elegant jewellery items. 

It comes after Umar popped the question in Côte d'Azur in 2021, which inevitably made choosing the wedding location a straightforward task for Nada. 

He hired out the Monte Carlo Opera House and had several professional photographers on hand to capture the moment. 

In typically extravagant fashion, Umar filled the historic theatre with 10,000 white roses, and dozens of candles while 25 musicians played Beauty and the Beast as radiant Nadia walked into the room.

Although she married the king of fast fashion, Nada eschewed his brands for a £1,790 slinky white gown with bejewelled straps and cut-out detailing from London-based designer David Koma for the occasion.

The dress perfectly complemented her ring - a 21-carat Leon diamond sparkler flown in from New York celebrity jeweller Richie Rich. 

Umar, whose family built their fashion empire from a Manchester market stall into a multi-billion pound business, looked dapper in a £4,300 Tom Ford suit and £730,000 Patek Philippe watch. 

The breathtaking proposal came after a whirlwind romance for Umar and Nadia, who only stepped out publicly together for the first time in March 2020.
