Mariah Carey was on hand to serenade guests at a lavish £20,000,000 four-day wedding in the south of France this weekend.

The 55-year-old songstress performed at the bash in a special surprise set on Friday night, sparkling in a crystal-embellished, semi-sheer Dior dress as she treated the wedding party to some of her biggest songs.

Hitmaker and mum-of-two Mariah, whose back catalogue boasts the likes of Always Be My Baby, Fantasy, Hero and We Belong Together was the main act at the evening celebration of Pretty Little Thing CEO Umar Kamani, 36, and his bride Nada, 31.

She had guests up on their feet during afterparty after the black-tie dinner that followed the outdoor ceremony.

The couple held their nuptials at the swanky Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc’s Grande Allée in France, taking advantage of the stunning backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea.

For their wedding ceremony earlier in the day, Nada also walked down the white-carpeted, flower-adorned aisle to singer Andrea Bocelli’s spine-tingling rendition of The Prayer, ahead of his London summer show at BST Hyde Park.

The guestlist was packed out with British celebs, and Umar’s friend, ex-Coronation Street star Richard Fleeshman, also reportedly took to the microphone on Friday night to perform Moon Dance during the reception.

Also from the cobbles, Dancing On Ice champion Ryan Thomas, 39, acted as best man and attended the luxurious celebration alongside his fiancée Lucy Mecklenburgh, 32, as well as his brothers, Strictly star Adam Thomas and Scott Thomas.

Former England footballer Rio Ferdinand, 45, and his 32-year-old wife Kate were also glamorous guests, sharing picture of themselves on Instagram in white outfits for the ceremony before swapping to black-tie and an elegant black gown for the evening.

Boxer Anthony Joshua and Dragons’ Den star and entrepreneur Steven Bartlett were also on the guestlist.

Umar, whose family built the multi-billion-pound PLT empire, proposed to Nada in breathtaking fashion in 2021, hiring out the Monte Carlo Opera House, which he filled with 10,000 white roses and had a live chamber orchestra serenade her with Beauty and the Beast.

Mariah has previously performed at extravagant wedding celebrations, including in 2017 when Russian billionaire businessman Valery Kogan reportedly spent £3.5million on hiring her and Sir Elton John for his 19-year-old daughter Irene.

She tied the knot with Daniel Kevey in a celebration held at London’s Landmark Hotel, which saw Sir Elton dedicate Tiny Dancer to her during his set.
