It’s no secret weddings are expensive. But when you’re the sister of the future Queen, you can bet you’ll be spending more on your big day than what most women accumulate in super. In a lifetime.
Wedding planning app Bridebrook has done the maths to bring us the expected cost of Pippa Middleton’s wedding to hedge fund millionaire fiance, James Matthews.
Watch: What’s the craziest thing a bridezilla has made you do for their wedding? (post continues after video…)
OK, so here we go.
Taking into consideration everything from the dress to the table decorations, the app predicts the total cost of Pippa’s wedding to sit roughly around the AUD$435,000 mark. Yep.
No, that’s not a rogue four. Or zeros. The estimated amount, which is a lot (but not enough to buy a house in 2017, mind you) is 15 times the average cost of average people weddings.
And what might one spend more than $400K on, you ask? Here are some key parts of Bridebrook’s breakdown:
The dress and veil: Just over $17,500 on a rumoured Giles Deacon couture number, set off with a $3500 designer veil.

I was expecting you to say it was in excess of $1million to behonest LOL
Well, it's their money, they can afford it, so why not? And let's be real, this number is an estimate, it could be accurate, it could be completely off the mark.
Also, why do they care so much? This woman is the sister-in-law and aunt to future kings. She's not royal herself, just someone whose parents and future husband are rich and who takes advantage of the attention she got wearing a flattering dress at someone else's wedding to get a book deal.
