Liz Hurley and Arun Nayer are planning a "flamboyant" Indian wedding party.

The happy couple will tie the knot at a rural retreat in England in March, before flying out to Arun's birthplace for a five-day celebration. Hurley will wear a £4,000 jewelled sari and the traditional festivities will involve white horses and elephants.

"No expense will be spared, with the finest Indian food and drinks laid on for guests," a friend told The Mirror. "While the UK wedding will be a quiet affair, the Indian celebration will be over-the-top and flamboyant. Liz is hoping that their friends will be able to make all five days. It will certainly be a wedding party to remember."
