Indian billionaire and Bilt Reward CEO Ankur Jain tied the knot with the former WWE star wrestler Erika Hammond in a wedding ceremony planned in Egypt in front of the Great Pyramids.
While speaking with the People magazine after the wedding, the founder said: “We’re New Yorkers and there’s something so special about being in a completely different world environment.”
“So we decided, our wedding is about having a moment together to celebrate the new beginning, having a really special party with our friends somewhere where you’re in a different world,” the 34-year-old Jain added, who had initially planned to organise ceremony in space however, it was not supported by her partner Erika Hammond.
Their wedding ceremony was also a bit unusual, however, unique. There was no bridal party, no wedding cake other than a birthday cake from Milk Bar, and the planning was all handed over to their coordinators.
The 32-year-old former wrestler said: “I had no idea what the napkins looked like or what the table setting looked like.”
Jain noted: “We’re not traditional wedding people. Why do you have to spend $20,000 on flowers? It doesn’t make sense.”
The only planning in which they were involved was about the transportation of their guests who were brought back to Cairo for the wedding after the safari.
The event, which was held at the Muhammed Ali Palace, had a “Modern Cairo” theme and featured belly and fire dancers.
“We had the best time. It was so special,” Jain told the outlet, adding that “when the fireworks went off, it was one of the most spectacular moments. I was so emotional, I couldn’t even put it into words.”
