That’s how much PC-Nick Jonas will reportedly spend on their stay and pre-wedding ceremonies
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’ impending nuptials will be an intimate ceremony. Invitees from Nick’s side will head straight to Jodhpur, whereas PC’s rishtedaars from both her mom and dad’s side will join in on November 29. Both the families have booked the Taj Umaid Bhawan Palace for the wedding from November 29 to December 3. After Hrs called up the Palace and inquired about a reservation around the same date. “None of the rooms are available on these dates. We have rooms till November 28 and again starting from December 4. We are completely booked for the five days in between,” said the hotel personnel at the reservation counter. The pre-wedding ceremonies, including the haldi, sangeet and mehendi, will take place at the Mehrangarh Fort. “The couple has booked the fort from November 29 to December 1. It will be closed for tourists on these three days,” adds our source.
Biggest wedding ever
Priyanka, her mom and her brother, along with Nick and his immediate family will reportedly board a chopper from Jodhpur airport to the Umaid Bhawan Palace. The grand yellow sandstone property has 64 luxurious rooms and suites — 22 palace rooms and 42 suites that are segregated into four types (24 historical suites, 10 royal suites, six grand royal suites and two presidential suites). The hotel informed us about the prices (per night, exclusive of taxes) for each room — Rs 47,300 for palace rooms, Rs 65,300 for historical suites, Rs 1.45 lakh for royal suites, Rs 2.30 lakh for grand royal suites and Rs 5.04 lakh for presidential suites. So, the total cost of booking the entire hotel for one night sums up to approximately Rs 64.40 lakh per night. The hotel has been booked for a total of five days, so just the accommodation will reportedly cost around Rs 3.2 crore for PC and Nick. This is excluding the other expenses like food, expenditure for different ceremonies and the booking cost for the three days of rituals at the Mehrangarh Fort.
Another Rs 73 lakh at the Mehrangarh Fort?
The management officer, who handles the booking for the Mehrangarh Fort, told After Hrs, “A minimum of 40 rooms need to be booked at the Umaid Bhawan Palace for the ceremony to happen at the Mehrangarh Fort. There will also be an additional cost of Rs 10 lakh for the set-up, which also includes lighting and stage if required as well as other miscellaneous things. Along with that, the cost of catering will be Rs 18,000 per person.” Reportedly, an 80-odd member contingent will attend PC-Nick’s shaadi. According to the officer, the three-day cost of setting up everything at the fort will be approximately Rs 30 lakh and the catering for them over three ceremonies will come to roughly around Rs 43 lakh. So, the total expenditure for the pre-wedding functions is estimated to be around Rs 73 lakh for the couple. This means the total cost of venue and pre-wedding rituals reportedly add up to Rs 3.93 crore for the jodi.
