After the celebration that Mikhail Gutseriev organized for his son last year, it became clear: an incredible bar has been raised, which will be difficult for businessmen who want to throw a luxurious holiday to jump over.

But it seems to have succeeded. This weekend it was not the Moscow Safisa that thundered, but the luxurious Dolby Theater in Los Angeles. Where, for a minute, is the Oscars ceremony. Its organizers did not skimp, organizing their “New Wave” on the road. Hosted the event Ksenia Sobchak and Andrey Malakhov. And the guests were entertained Svetlana Loboda, Nikolai Baskov, Stas Mikhailov and... Lady Gaga! The price tag for the artists was several times higher than their standard price, which is logical - a long flight and such an important event.
The stars hid their participation in the wedding of Gaspar Avdolyan and Lolita Osmanova as much as possible, except that they checked in in Los Angeles and showed around. Only Ksenia Sobchak couldn’t resist and posted a short video on Instagram: “It’s not every day that I announce Lady Gaga!”

The wedding really looked luxurious. On the staircase, decorated with huge compositions, guests were greeted by violinists who performed classical music. Young, Gaspard and Lolita, looked like real winners in life - the bride’s dress with an unreal train flowed down the stairs, like the coolest Oscar nominees. Among the guests is a jeweler Laurie Rodkin. Laurie wrote:
“I don’t fully understand whether I’m in Russia or Armenia, or whether I’m on the Armenian show “The Voice.”
One can only imagine how much was spent on this event. Let's try to at least roughly compare this party with the Gutserievs' wedding. According to British media, last year's celebration in Russia cost about a billion rubles (or $16 million). This one definitely turned out to be more expensive - renting the Dolby Theater in the USA clearly costs more than the Safisa restaurant, where the Gutserievs hung out. Lady Gaga's performance is approximately one and a half million dollars. Our artists (Baskov, Mikhailov, Loboda) - from 100 to 150,000 dollars, plus presenters (Sobchak and Malakhov) - about 70,000 dollars. Flights, meals, accommodation for guests - at least another 500 thousand. Floral compositions with which the Dolby Theater was decorated - about another 500,000 dollars (this is an extremely expensive pleasure). And we still don’t know how much the newlyweds’ rings and the bride’s dress cost, but in appearance they are clearly not cheaper than Gutseriev’s. As a result, this wedding can cost as much as 20 - 25 million dollars...
BY THE WAY
Who paid for the banquet? Most likely, fathers of young people. Lolita- daughter of a major businessman Eldar Osmanov, Gaspard- son of Albert Avdolyan.
Eldar Osmanov- co-owner of the company Mezhregionsoyuzenergo", which, as the press writes, includes such assets as " Tagilenergosbyt» « Chelyabenergosbyt", "Arkhenergosbyt", " Vologdaenergosbyt» , Khakakasenergosbyt" And " Roskommunenergo".
46 year old Albert Avdolyan is the founder and owner of the SCARTEL company, holder of Yota shares. Originally from Krasnodar. Father of four children. According to American media, he lives with his wife Elena in an estate in Beverly Hills, which cost him $13 million.

0 July 2, 2017, 11:55 pmIf last year the celebration organized by Mikhail Gutseriev for his son and his chosen one was recognized, then the wedding of 2017, without any doubt, will be a luxurious celebration on the occasion of the marriage of the son of businessman Albert Avdolyan and the daughter of businessman Eldar Osmanov. Why?
It’s worth starting with the fact that the total budget of the event was 600 million rubles, and it was spent on renting a hall at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, where the Oscar ceremony is held annually, and world-class stars who entertained the guests. But first things first.
Newlyweds
The main character of the evening is Gaspar Avdolyan, the son of Albert Avdolyan, who works in the telecommunications sector. His fiancee is Lolita Osmanova, daughter of Eddar Osmanov, co-owner of the Mezhregionsoyuzenergo holding company.
Avdolyan's fortune, according to Forbes, is estimated at $800 million. It was not possible to find data on Osmanov’s capital.
Invitations to the celebration
Instead of traditional invitations to the wedding ceremony, Gaspar and Lolita sent their family and friends black cases containing an Oscar figurine, a pen, playing chips and gold records with the names of the now spouses.
The suitcase also had a built-in screen on which a video invitation was played with the date and location of the celebration.
Bride's dress
Lolita went to the altar in a luxurious dress with an endless train. None of the guests could hide their surprise and delight - some of the first publications that appeared on social networks were dedicated specifically to the bride’s outfit.
One can only guess how much the girl's wedding dress cost.
Hosts of the evening
The hosts of the Hollywood-style evening were Ksenia Sobchak and Andrei Malakhov.
In Hollywood, on the Hollywood Wave. I'm going to work and have fun at the same time,
- said the celebrity, without disclosing the details of the upcoming event. However, later, when Ksenia posted a video with Lady Gaga on the same social network, it became clear what kind of “work” awaited her.
Artists
The wedding guests of Gaspard and Lolita were entertained not only by Lady Gaga, but also by Jason Derulo.
In addition, on the occasion of an important day in the lives of young people, Svetlana Loboda, Nikolai Baskov and Stas Mikhailov flew to Los Angeles and performed their most popular hits for the audience.
And that's not all - the program included a performance by a ballerina, an orchestra and an Armenian dance group.

— jeweler Lori Rodkin shared her impressions.
Hall decoration
Arriving at the scene, guests had to climb the stairs on which violinists played classical music. Further more. Once in the Dolby Theater hall, the guests found themselves in another world - a fairy tale: flowers everywhere, exclusive decor... In a word, not just expensive, unimaginably expensive.
According to some media reports, approximately half a million dollars were spent on florist services.

And Sobchak, the host of the event herself, boasted: “It’s not every day that I announce Lady Gaga.”
The bride's dress attracted the greatest admiration. Lolita appeared at the ceremony in a chic snow-white outfit with a voluminous skirt and a train several meters long.

One can only guess how much was spent on this wedding. But the floral arrangements alone cost about half a million dollars. And at least $2 million was spent on the artists. All this was paid equally by the parents of the newlyweds.
All those invited received unusual cases several months before the celebration. They contained an Oscar figurine, playing chips and a gold plate with the names of the heroes of the holiday and the date of the event itself.
Let us remember that earlier other rich people from Russia had already arranged expensive weddings for children. In particular, at the beginning of this year, Russian billionaire Valery Kogan married his granddaughter, inviting Elton John, Mariah Carey and Antonio Banderas to sing at the holiday.
And in March last year, world publications wrote about the high-profile wedding of the son of Russian oil oligarch Mikhail Gutseriev. Then Sting, Enrique Iglesias, Patricia Kaas and Jennifer Lopez, as well as Alla Pugacheva were invited to Moscow, where the ceremony took place.
