Anant Ambani and Radhika Ambani officially tied the knot on Friday,but in line with Indian traditions,the wedding celebrations are still in full swing.
VIP guests arrived in all their finery to take part in a Blessing's Ceremony in Mumbai yesterday evening - a traditional event designed to send well wishes to the couple and their future together.
With a quarter-billion-pound budget,a guestlist to rival the Met Gala and a host of former world leaders dancing the night away,the Ambani wedding ceremony was arguably the biggest in the world.
Guests were no less impressive at yesterday's event,with Paris Hilton's sister Nicky and her banker husband James Rothschild donning Bollywood attire to celebrate the newlyweds,as well as Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar and his wife,Anjali.
The cream of Bollywood was also in attendance,including esteemed actresses Alia Bhatt,Aishwarya Rai Bachchan,and Ananya Pandey.

The couple were also given a £500,000 Bentley Continental GTC Speed and a dazzling array of custom-made jewellery and clothes worth millions of pounds.
Mr Ambani's glamorous wife Nita,60,gifted her daughter-in-law a stunning pearl and diamond choker,worth an estimated £10 million which is just one of dozens of bespoke multi-million-pound pieces made for her. Anant was given a £2 million Cartier brooch.
Specialist weavers in India have spent the past few months making a series of rare silk sarees using gold and silver thread valued at more than £100,000 each.
Former Prime Minister Tony Blair and his wife Cherie were also in attendance,alongside Kim and Khloe Kardashian,wrestler Jon Cena and Nick and Priyanka Chopra-Jonas.
The glamorous,long-awaited event is reported to have cost around a staggering £250million - without taking into account the couple's estimated £100million accumulation of luxury wedding gifts and the hosting of several of the world's most followed A-list celebrities.
