Million Dollar Wedding Planner (2019x211)

:

With Asia now home to more billionaires than the USA or Europe, this film follows Lelian Chew, who organises nuptials for the super-rich in the Far East, taking on ten just ceremonies a year at an average cost of $1million each. Bespoke Cartier jewellery, hundreds of thousands of dollars of flowers and multiple designer wedding dresses are nothing out of the ordinary. But Lelian's job also involves navigating the clash between age-old Chinese marriage customs and the desires of the young, often with outlandish solutions - multiple weddings are becoming the norm for the Chinese super-rich.
