Billionaire Daughter Vanisha Mittal

I ran across a description of the 2004 wedding of Vanisha Mittal.

Her dad, London-based steel industry billionaire Lakshmi Mittal, is only the fifth-richest man in England, so he limited the budget for his daughter's wedding to $78 million dollars. This forced them to hold the engagement party at Versailles Palace, and the wedding on the grounds of the Vaux le Vicomte chateau east of Paris, which they closed to the public for the purpose.

Those of you reading this who have a small particle of brain lodged in your head may remember Dad as the "cash for favours" scandal dude who got special treatment from Tony Blair in 2001, in exchange for...well, cash.

Here's Vanisha and her dude.
