Most Expensive Wedding Dress

Written by: jeremy Filed Under: Fashion, Luxury, World on September 3rd, 2007

A wedding is an expensive occasion for even the most humble bride and groom. Imagine, then, the wedding that includes the most expensive wedding dress in the world. The Diamond Wedding Gown is a collaboration of Renee Strauss, owner of a highly successful bridal salon in Beverly Hills, and Martin Katz, who deals in rare jewels. Featuring 150 carats of diamonds, the dress is valued at US $12 million.

The world’s most expensive wedding gown was unveiled at the premier Luxury Brands Lifestyle Bridal show in February of 2006. Later in the year, Dubai’s Fashion & Diamonds show also featured a gown touted as the world’s most expensive wedding dress. Yumi Katsura’s design, however, is only valued at $8.5 million. Despite being only the second most expensive wedding dress, it features 1,000 pearls and one of the world’s only two 5 carat white gold diamonds.

Oh ya, girls notice that this dress has never been mentioned anywhere ever on any designer web. Don’t go with what everybody is envious of. Go with what you are in love with for you!!! It does not matter if you spend$300.00 or $12,000,000.00!!! Do you!!!!!!!!

The dress is okay looking. I think it has too much going on. I am having my dress custom made. My mom’s friend is a designer and she said she will make the dress and make some design ideas. This one looks heavy and uncomfortable though. I don’t think it is that cute either. What a waste of diamonds and pearls! They could be on your ring!!
Posted by ayesha 20th June, 2009 at 7:03 am
u guys must have donated that money to the poor
instead of wasting it on a dress
Posted by Shacoya 29th June, 2009 at 9:23 am

Well, the dress is pretty… I only spend $175 on my Renaissance gown and it was much nicer! I’d rather spend the money on diamond jewelry that I could wear every day, you can’t really wear this dress every day! LOL

Posted by Kaitie 31st October, 2009 at 12:37 pm
Well, if you think about it, you are only going to wear your wedding dress once or twice, but man…….I am sure that that dress would be worth the BIG price! I mean, look at its beauty!
Posted by Mandy 31st October, 2009 at 2:26 pm
