Anticipation mounts as Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani, prepares to tie the knot with Radhika Merchant. Their pre-wedding festivities, slated for March 1 to March 3 in Jamnagar, Gujarat, promise a blend of tradition and grandeur.

The upcoming celebrations are expected to be a blend of tradition and grandeur, with the couple’s Lagan Lakhvanu already celebrated on February 16 at the Ambani family estate in Jamnagar. During the ceremony, Radhika adorned a custom-made lehenga by designer Anamika Khanna.

What makes this event even more noteworthy is the impressive guest list, which includes a plethora of international business elites, according to a report published in the Economic Times.

According to ET, the roster of esteemed guests slated to grace the pre-wedding festivities in Jamnagar during early March resembles a veritable who’s who of the global business elite. Among the notable personalities expected to attend are luminaries such as Microsoft’s visionary co-founder, Bill Gates, and Meta’s pioneering CEO, Mark Zuckerberg. Also on the guest list are Larry Fink, the influential CEO of investment firm BlackRock, and Bob Iger, the esteemed leader of entertainment giant Disney.

Adding to the prestige are prominent figures like Ivanka Trump, the businesswoman and former White House advisor, and Ted Pick, the distinguished CEO of financial services powerhouse Morgan Stanley. Further enriching the gathering are luminaries such as Brian Thomas Moynihan, the chairman of Bank of America, and Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, CEO of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC).

Notably, the list also includes Lynn Forester de Rothschild, chair of the prominent investment firm E.L. Rothschild, as well as dignitaries like the king and queen of Bhutan and Qatar Premier Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani. Additionally, tech investor Yuri Milner and Adobe’s CEO Shantanu Narayen are expected to grace the occasion with their presence.

The engagement of Anant and Radhika took place at the Shrinathji temple in Rajasthan’s Nathdwara in 2022, followed by a ceremony at Antilia, the Ambani residence in Mumbai, in 2023. Now, as they prepare to embark on the next chapter of their lives together, their union is set to be one of India’s most talked-about weddings.

As the date draws nearer, all eyes will be on Jamnagar and Mumbai as Anant and Radhika exchange vows, marking the beginning of a new journey.
