The reality star married her beau Kris Humphries in a lavish ceremony on Saturday. The big day was estimated to have cost around $10 million, but it won't be making a dent in Kim's bank account. In fact, the 30-year-old is likely to make a profit from her own nuptials, according to reports.
How did she swing it? Well...
Las Vegas nightclub Tao actually paid Kim and Kris $50,000 to host their bachelor and bachelorette parties.
The rights to the wedding pics were sold exclusively to People magazine for $2.5 million.
Freebies, thanks to Kim's famous name, included $750,000 worth of catering, $400,000 worth of Perrier Jouet Champagne, $10,000 in wedding invitations, a $15,000 cake, THREE Vera Wang dresses to choose from (at $20,000 a pop) and a free stay at the Palazzo hotel (at $2000 a night).
The celebrity couple were given a generous discount on a $2 million engagement ring and $1 million wedding bands from Lorraine Schwartz.
But the thing that'll really balance the books for the Kardashian family is the profit they'll make from the special wedding episode of their show. Naturally, the E! Network cameras captured every moment of Kim's special day, and the ep is expected to pull in between $12 million and $15 million.
And we wonder why famous people have so many marriages!
We're sure the TV special will be great and all, but here's the most entertaining TV moment to come out of the wedding so far...
