But it’s not just the super-famous – it’s also the absolute super-rich who seem to be drawn to large, closed-off venues to celebrate the biggest occasions. Like tech billionaire Ankur Jain, who took the “destination wedding” theme into his own hands when he chose the pyramids of ancient Egypt as his destination. Somewhat predictably, the seven-day celebrations went viral on TikTok – and Egypt’s Minister of Tourism and Antiquities was in attendance. Jain and his girlfriend, WWE champion and fitness mogul Erica Hammond, were married at sunset between two pyramids with the Great Sphinx of Giza as a backdrop, before a performance by Robin Thicke began. The photos Are sensational: the pyramids, true ancient wonders of the world, which form an exquisite backdrop that can be bought for money.

As part of the celebrations, they also took over the Grand Egyptian Museum, the largest museum in the world dedicated to a single civilization, for a night—that was pretty big considering it’s not yet open to the public. But this is more like a night at the museum (which is more common than a night surrounded by ancient, cordoned-off artifacts). And parties in private homes are now mainstream: Charlotte Tilbury rented Badminton House in Gloucestershire for New Year’s Eve, or Tish Weinstock and Tom Guinness booked Belvoir Castle for their gothic wedding. In fashion, it happens all the time: a prime example was when the Greek royal’s friend Mary Katranzou showed her 2020 collection at the Temple of Poseidon in Greece, or when Dolce & Gabbana took over the Teatro Antico in Taormina for Alta Moda.
