As RadarOnline.com previously reported, music from Indian instruments and the tones of traditional Rajasthani folk singers could be heard from inside the colorfully-decorated venue, along with sacred Vedic chanting and the occasional burst of applause from guests. Indian supermodel Jesse Randhawa danced a routine with her husband, renowned choreographer Sandhip Soparrkar.

Animals played a key role in all aspects of the wedding, as elephants and horses were prominently featured in the ceremony. Perry reportedly bought Brand a baby elephant for their union, while one of Brand's more expensive gifts to Perry was a female Bengal tiger named Machli, Daily Mail reported, though the animal would continue living in Ranthambhore National Park, and Brand's money would be put toward the park's wildlife fund.

A hint of danger came, as well, according to UK Daily Mail, when a man-eating tiger -- that had reportedly killed three people in its’ past  -- tried to gatecrash the loud, lit-up shindig, getting as close as 50 feet from Brand, Perry and their guests before guards turned it away.

The pair began dating a year and a month ago, and decided to tie the knot on New Year's day while vacationing in Jaipur, India.

Brand told New Yorker magazine that the couple planned to keep the affair small and intimate in spite of their great fame.

"Really, love between two people is the most spectacular and ordinary thing in the world," he said. "I want to make our wedding just about me and her loving each other and we're getting married in front of our friends and family and keeping it normal. So it ain't selling the pictures, ain't doing no pre-nup."
