The 43-year-old was joined by her sister Khloe Kardashian, 40, at the Jio World Convention Centre to witness the couple's traditional Hindu wedding ceremony after five months of festivities costing an estimated $600 million.
The Kardashian sisters embraced traditional Indian attire for the big day – but it was Kim who broke etiquette with her ensemble.
The mother-of-four wore a sparkling ruby red lehenga that boasted intricate beadwork and tassel detailing, pairing it with a cropped top, and a dupatta – a long shawl-like scarf.
Kim accessorized with a diamond maang tikka between the middle parting of her hair, dropping to her forehead, and two diamond necklaces.
However, Kim's decision to wear red may be seen by some as breaking Indian tradition as the hue is typically reserved for the bride on the wedding day.
"In Indian culture, the woman is the one who is leaving her house and going to the man's house to be with his family," Niki Shamdasani, designer and co-founder of Sani, told Brides .
"It's a far bigger change for the woman than the man, so it is appropriate that she be the one commanding the most attention and wearing a bold color like red that symbolizes new life."
Khloe, meanwhile, opted for a palette of gold and white for her shimmering lehenga, which she teamed with a long-sleeved, off-the-shoulder top and gold accessories, including a matching maang tikka.
Kim and Khloe shared several snaps on their respective Instagram accounts while also revealing that their fans will see their attendance at the wedding featured on an episode of The Kardashians.
In the days leading up to Friday’s ceremony, the couple took part in several traditional pre-wedding rituals.
With over 30 distinct cultures within the South Asian region, each Indian wedding will look different. However, here are a few common customs that are typically incorporated into Indian nuptials…

A do spanning several days - The nuptials and reception take place after two days of more intimate events that tend only to be attended by close friends and family.
Red - The colour is considered lucky and thus is often incorporated into the wedding decor, outfits, flowers - the list goes on.

A large party - Everyone invited to the wedding is usually invited to the reception so the evening do is a big one
No first kiss - Many deem PDA in front of elders inappropriate so there’s almost never a, 'You may now kiss the bride' element to the nuptials, Brides reported .
