Hollywood's Most Expensive Celebrity Weddings

Rumor has it Salma Hayek is about to have a 3.5 million dollar wedding day, complete with a 500K dress and flowers worth a million dollars. That may sound like a lot, but in Hollywood there's apparently always someone ready to outspend you. So how much do most A-list marriages cost these days? We did some digging and found a Forbes list of the most expensive Hollywood weddings to date:

Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas $1.5 Million
This famous couple wed at New York's Plaza Hotel in 2000 where only guest with special hologram embedded invitations could enter. (Sean Connery and Jack Nicholson made the cut.) The bride wowed her guest in a Christian Lacroix gown with antique Chantilly lace, and a tiara. Everything was a splurge for this pair: They had Grammy winner Bonnie Tyler perform, and take a look at her marquis cut engagement ring.

Christina Aguilera & Jordan Bratman $2 million
It was a wine-country wedding for this entertainment industry power couple. The pop diva married the music executive at the Napa Valley's Staglin Family Vineyard. Guests enjoyed a winter-themed ceremony in a tent decorated with crystals, silver-drapery, and white roses. Check out their wedding photos.

Katie Holmes & Tom Cruise $2 million
The couple made international headlines in November 2006 when they became man and wife in a lavish ceremony at Italy's 15th-century Odescalchi Castle outside Rome. Holmes ivory, silk, off-the shoulder gown was personally designed by Giorgio Armani. Celebrity photographer, and WeddingChannel.com expert Robert Evans shot their wedding.

Liza Minnelli & David Guest $3.5 Million
The Oscar winning actress and her then producer beau wed in New York City's Marble Collegiate Church in an over-the-top ceremony where Michael Jackson served as the best man and Elizabeth Taylor stepped in as the maid of honor. Tony Bennett entertained their very famous guests, backed by a 60-piece orchestra.
