Madelaine Brockway came out of nowhere and went viral for her $59 million wedding that broke the Internet. The car dealership heiress that no one had ever heard of flew all her guests privately to Paris, had a pre-wedding get together at the Chanel Store, did her rehearsal dinner at the Paris Opera house, treated folks to an overnight stay at the Palace of Versailles, and hosted a private Maroon 5 concert at the reception.
But now that her lavish nuptials are in the limelight it has emerged that the groom, Jacob LaGrone, is facing prison time for shooting at a police officer.
What gives? Why throw such a gonzo bananas wedding when you know the groom might be locked away? What kind of attention are they trying to command? And what exactly does $59 million get you in the wedding market these days?
