NEWYORK CITY, NEW YORK: Alina Habba has married Turkish businessman Turhan Mildon in a lavish wedding at New York’s Waldorf Astoria, surrounded by close family and friends.

Habba and Mildon said “I do” in the hotel’s Jade Room, where white cherry blossoms lined a mirrored aisle and stretched overhead beneath the room’s high ceilings and chandeliers.

After the ceremony, guests passed through the historic Silver Corridor, which had been transformed with deep red roses, floral arches and candles.

The decorations carried the same grand style into the reception, which took place in the hotel’s impressive Grand Ballroom.

A huge red rose installation, cascading crystals and a custom black-and-white dance floor formed the centerpiece of the reception.

Towering glass lighting fixtures, elaborate audio equipment and eye-catching ice sculptures also helped transform the venue for the occasion.

The wedding was described as an intimate celebration, with close family and friends gathering for the special day. However, the scale of the decorations and the setting gave the event a distinctly lavish feel.

The couple’s wedding weekend began with a rehearsal dinner at Aretsky’s Patroon.

Guests later gathered at the Waldorf Astoria for cocktails and an array of hors d’oeuvres, including caviar.

The reception menu featured Royal Ossetra caviar served with egg white and egg yolk, chives, creme fraiche and buttermilk blini.

Guests could then choose between lobster risotto and prime filet mignon, with classic ice cream sundaes served for dessert.

A toast with Dom Perignon champagne added to the evening’s celebrations.

Boxing legend Mike Tyson was among the high-profile guests in attendance.

Other guests arrived at the hotel dressed for the occasion, with women wearing long gowns and carrying invitations as their dates escorted them inside.

Some guests stopped for drinks at Peacock Alley before being taken to the Grand Ballroom in private elevators.

The three-story ballroom spans nearly 10,000 square feet and can accommodate up to 1,500 guests for a reception.

Its tiered balconies, restored Art Deco details and modern lighting, sound and staging have made it a setting for major New York galas, weddings and social events.

Alina Habba’s engagement ring and luxury gifts

The wedding’s lavish details also followed months of attention around Habba’s engagement ring and reported gifts from Mildon.

The attorney has been seen wearing a large diamond believed to weigh at least 23 carats.

One source previously joked that “that ring has its own zip code,” a remark that captured the attention surrounding the eye-catching piece.

Mildon has also reportedly given Habba a collection of Hermes Birkin bags. She was recently seen carrying a pink ostrich-skin Birkin estimated to be worth around $30,000.

The couple’s pre-wedding appearances offered a glimpse of their style ahead of the ceremony.

Habba stepped out in an ivory jumpsuit with heavily embellished shoulders, while Mildon wore a crisp white shirt and dark trousers.

The pair smiled as they posed for pictures with their nearest and dearest in the hours before the wedding.

Habba, a New Jersey native, married Mildon just eight months after her second divorce, according to the supplied report.

The couple’s relationship had progressed through months of romance and a whirlwind engagement before they exchanged vows at the New York landmark.
