The late Princess Diana of Wales married Prince Charles at just 20 years old. Her wedding dress, which was designed by Elizabeth and David Emanuel reportedly cost $12,000. Now, that was in the year 1981. Today, $12,000 is equivalent to $34,148.91. That's pretty much what a 20-year-old American makes a year on average.

The gown also featured a stunning 25-foot train, hand-embroidered details, and a whopping 10,000 pearls.

In arguably the most talked-about wedding event of the decade, the royal family spared no expense for the union of Kate Middleton and Prince William.

The bride wore a custom dress by English designer Sarah Burton that reportedly cost $400,000. With its lace sleeves, a nine-foot train and a stunning veil made of silk tulle, the gown was truly fit for a future queen. The entire look was completed with the Cartier Halo Tiara, loaned to her by the Queen.

The exact cost of Chinese superstar Angelababy's bridal gown isn't known, but one can infer just from the astounding $31 million that was spent for the wedding in total.

The dress is a custom Dior design that took five months to make. It featured dozens of Chantilly lace rose bouquets, as well as an extravagant 10-foot train.

Victoria Beckham

Victoria Beckham wore an ivory-white gown when she married footballer David Beckham. In case you still don't understand why she's called Posh Spice, perhaps this will explain.

According to Business Insider, the custom Vera Wang dress is estimated to be $100,000. And that was in 1999, folks.

Amal Alamuddin

George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin looked like Hollywood royalty when they got married on September 27, 2014. Amal's dress, a $380,000 custom-made by Oscar de la Renta may have played a part in that.

And if you're wondering, the cost to use their wedding photos online is also a bank-breaker.

Nicole Richie

For Nicole Richie's wedding to Joel Madden on December 11, 2010, the daughter of singer Lionel Richie rocked a breathtaking $20,000 Marchesa gown.

It's made off 100 yards of silk organza tulle, a high neck cut and a fitted bodice with delicate floral lace details.

Jessica Biel

The wife of singer Justin Timberlake took the unconventional bridal route: A bold pink dress.

And the color isn't the only interesting thing. This gown was reportedly priced at $100,000.

Kim Kardashian (2011)

For Kim Kardashian's second wedding that led to an infamous 72-day marriage, the TV star wore three different Vera Wang dresses, each costing $25,000. You do the math.

Kim Kardashian (2014)

For Kardashian's third wedding, this time to Kanye West in 2014, the now mother-of-four wore a striking $400,000 Givenchy gown by designer Riccardo Tisci that featured a sheer back, lace sleeves, and an incredible train.
