For some, no expense is spared on the most important day of their lives - and what most couples spend on the whole day will barely cover the cost of groom's tuxedo. Where the budget for flowers alone is $1 million, brides buy multiple designers gowns to change into throughout the day, and the cakes are so enormous the bride and groom have to climb a ladder to cut them.

Vacation Desire - The lavender fields of Valensole, France □□ Tour The Black Swan, the World’s Most Elegant Superyacht. As the name suggests, superyachts are meant to garner attention.

From Zaha Hadid’s stunningly crafted ships to vessels featuring waterfalls, these massive floating crafts are becoming ever more exquisite in design. And the latest concept superyacht, by designer Timur Bozca, is no exception. Dubbed The Black Swan for its black exterior and graceful aesthetic, the striking structure is proof of the power of simplicity.

According to Bozca, who splits time between offices in Istanbul, Milan, and London, the superyacht was crafted by connecting “simple lines together with dramatic angles and curves.” “Using the powerful image of an arrow as my inspiration, I tried to create an aerodynamic exterior that would give the yacht a distinctive look, while also improving the efficiency of the craft in the water,” said Bozca in a statement. The yacht will include four engines that can generate 23,172 horsepower, hitting a top speed of 32 m.p.h. This Could Be the Most Luxurious Superyacht Yet Photos. Facebook.

§. Sun Gazing. Amazing Pictures. Britain's 10 most popular homes have 60 bedrooms between them and are worth £75million. The top ten most viewed properties on one website are worth a staggering £75 million between them. There must be some buyers with very deep pockets if they want to snap up any of these vast homes. Half of the 10 most viewed properties on Zoopla last month have six bedrooms or more. Many boast a range of expensive features such as orangeries, bowling alleys, swimming pools and even a private golf course. Most viewed in January was a six bedroom detached luxury home in the leafy suburb of Walton-on-Thames in Surrey.

With its own wine room and orangery, plus staff accommodation, this property racked up an impressive 86,000 views in the last 30 days. At an eye-watering £20m, an 11 bedroom mansion in London’s much sought-after borough of Barnet came in at the most expensive on the list, followed closely by a brand new £16.8m mansion just a few hundred metres down the road.

This Cave House Cost $230,000 to Build, and You Can Rent It. If you’ve ever disparagingly referred to someone as a troglodyte, you might want to reconsider the insult. Cave-dwelling can be pretty sweet — and you can still get Wi-Fi — if you live like Angelo Mastropietro. The businessman doesn’t actually reside in his Rockhouse Retreat full-time; he built it as a weekend getaway. It took him over $230,000, even though he did most of the work himself. The cave alone cost nearly $90,000, and the rest went to renovations, he told Barcroft TV.

The rock house, which is located in Worcestershire, U.K., isn’t Mastropietro’s full-time residence, and he rents it out for about $280 a night. 14-month-old elephant Moyo follows his foster mum Roxy Danckwerts everywhere. Which is adorable, but not great news for the soft furnishings. Moyo was saved from drowning at just a few days old after he was washed away while trying to cross a flooded river with his herd. He was then abandoned by the older elephants but, luckily, rangers found him just as a pack of hyenas had him surrounded. He was taken to the Wild Is Life animal sanctuary in Zimbabwe, where he became very attached to founder Roxy.

So attached that he won’t let her out of his sight. Here he is bowling onto the veranda to say hello. Mind the plant Moyo. We think the springs have gone in that sofa. Snaffling all the crisps. He’s outgrown the house (obviously) but still likes to help mum Roxy in the kitchen. ‘She is one of those animals with whom I have formed an extraordinary bond of friendship, trust and love. Who’s going to tell Moyo he has to move out? Watch his full story here: Denmark. Lichtenstein Castle | Photography by ©Adnam. Secret Grove by Majeed Badizadegan Columbia River Gorge, Oregon, USA.
