Everyone in Hollywood loves a good celebration, but in this case it's taking place in Bollywood. British actress Elizabeth Hurley and her new husband Arun Nayar kicked off their 6-day Indian wedding celebration in Mumbai. The couple married Friday in a private civil ceremony at Sudeley Castle in Winchombe. The guest list included Elle Macpherson, Elton John, the Princess of Denmark Mary Chantal, Kate Moss, fashion designer Valentino and Hurley's ex Hugh Grant. By Monday they were in India along with a hundred guests who flew in for the celebrations.

"I am very much looking forward to it. I know it's going to be a big celebration. I know that you Indians throw a very good wedding."

A private dinner party started the evening followed by a yacht ride around Mumbai. Celebrations will end here at this palace in Jodhpur. The luxury resort is located in Rajasthan in western India.
