11 party planners in Singapore to go to party it up like a Crazy Rich Asian

It’s only been over a week since Crazy Rich Asians has premiered in our local cinemas, and social media went absolutely fanatic over it.

So if you’re super up to date and have already caught the famed Crazy Rich Asians movie, one thing you must’ve been eyeballing over has to be the glamour, the lavish parties, the gowns… and perhaps wonder, is it even possible for an average Joe like yourself to throw a party on that kind of scale?

Sure, we may not all be Crazy Rich Asian socialites with a billionaire father who can afford to throw six-figure sums of money for the sake simply partying, so we’ve done a little investigating on where some socialites have partied, and who they were organised by, because hey, there might come a day you just might want to throw a super lavish party, money be damned.

1. aBite
