Crazy rich weddings. A peek behind the veil of Asia’s million-dollar nuptials.

Watch Million Dollar Wedding Planner on BBC Select

Why have one wedding when you can have two? This is how the super-rich marry in Asia, now home to more billionaires than the US.

In this eye-opening documentary wedding planner, Lelian Chew takes on ten of these jewel-encrusted weddings a year at an average cost of a million dollars. When a bride wants to walk on water, it’s Chew’s job to make it happen.

Is it obscene to spend this much on a day, or is that the price of romance?
