What does an upside-down wedding cake look like? Just ask actress Zahirah MacWilson and her beau, fellow actor Aiman Hakim Ridza, whose special day’s centrepiece consisted of an eight-tier crystal-decorated, vanilla-flavoured upside-down wedding cake that cost an estimated US$2,400.

The pair got married in February 2020 in front of nearly 200 people, who witnessed the happy couple cutting into the extravagant gravity-defying cake, which took about an hour to hang up, according to New Straits Times.

Sometimes inviting your nearest and dearest to your wedding isn’t enough: in March 2018, singer-actors Nur Fazura binti Sharifuddin and Abdul Fattah bin Mohd Amin, better known as Fazura and Fattah Amin, threw an epic reception at the Royale Palace Shah Alam. Around 5,000 enthusiastic “Fattzura” buffs were invited to the bash via Instagram. Of course, the couple had a separate reception – fairy tale-themed, complete with castle-like decor – for their friends and family, but they wanted to share their special moment with their fans too, reported New Straits Times.
