The blind item below is really not surprising at all. It’s good marketing from her side. Frankly speaking when we saw all the arrangements for her wedding, our eyes were rolling so hard. Not because it’s too much and over the top, we were wondering how much it costs them to make all of this happen? How much did the father spend on this wedding? And he has another daughter, who might be also tying the knot soon. All these calculations were going on. But now, this blind item clearly states that this actress found that hosting and paying for her wedding herself will be too expensive so she did what most celebrities do: ask for free stuffs and free service in exchange for publicity.

That is really smart! We were also wondering why they were so low-key on sharing pictures of the wedding. It turned out that they were paid by Vogue magazine to sell them the pics exclusively. Quite something! And here we thought that they were just being private. Speaking of private, it seems her husband enjoys the limelight too. He enjoys the attention that he gets, thanks to her.

Anyways, clearly for celebrities too marriage costs a lot of money. For her, it seemed she was smart to get the deals that she wanted in order to save money. This is what you call having friends in the right places. For her, it’s literally having the right friend with the right wedding venue. Check out the blind item from BollywoodLife below. Thanks to the reader, who shared it.

This actress got her best friend to ‘sponsor’ her wedding reception

Wedding is the most anticipated day of our lives (well, at least for a majority). It is a celebration of life and a new beginning of commitment to the partner. And this celebration for the elite is all things lavish and grand. We’ve seen quite a few of them in the B-Town and boy, they were so extravagant, they could break the proverbial ceiling. We do understand the pressure of hosting the best bash in town if you’re a celebrity figure, but this one seems to have gone a bit too far.

Recently a star had a big bash wedding. Turns out her destination wedding turned a damp squib when the firang hotel faxed resort bills to mama and papa. Overnight, everything was changed. They got her best friend to “sponsor” the reception and work out a five star hotel, including food. But that’s not all! A fashion magazine even had a photo booth installed to click pictures of the guests who attended the soiree, so that the actress could publicise her much touted wedding in their next issue. In fact, the actress Most of the star guests were wondering if they had come to a sponsored event or a classy do which they claimed it was. In fact, abiding by the terms and conditions mentioned in the contract, the actress did not share any of her wedding pictures on social media before the magazine issue came out.
