‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Star Amanda Frances Is Open to a Million Dollar Wedding
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans are being treated to a wedding planning session. Amanda Frances is set to wed Eddie Tsivislavsky later this year, but Bravo cameras are capturing the planning. While all of the plans have not been set in stone just yet, Frances didn’t mind dishing about the plans she’s already made and just how much money she’s willing to spend to make her dream wedding happen. While she’s getting pushback from fans after making it clear that a seven-figure wedding wasn’t out of the question, she would not be the first Real Housewives bride to spare no expense on their big day.
Amanda Frances isn’t against dropping $1 million on her wedding
Amanda Frances turned heads during the March 5 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The rookie housewife chatted about her upcoming wedding and her vision for her big day. Frances said she hadn’t ruled out a helicopter entrance for the October 2026 event, and dished about plans to take over two California towns for the lavish soire. She went on to admit that while she gave her fiancé one figure for the wedding, she wasn’t against completely blowing the budget. Frances admitted she’d be open to spending seven figures on he wedding of her dreams if she has to.
Frances, who is already not a favorite among Real Housewives fans, drew ire after she announced her plans. Not only did viewers find the over-the-top display of wealth tone-deaf, but they are also questioning how hard one would need to try to spend over $1 million on a wedding. Some fans questioned whether the showy wedding plans are simply a power play from Frances. If you look back, though, she wouldn’t be the first housewife to go all out on her special day.
Several ‘Real Housewives’ stars spent big bucks on their weddings
While Amanda Frances is being criticized for her lavish spending plans, she would not be the first Real Housewives star to spend seven figures on their wedding. Several Bravo stars have done just that, or came close to spending seven figures to celebrate their loves. Porsha Williams was the most recent.
In 2022, Prosha Williams, of The Real Housewives of Atlanta fame, reportedly spent $1 million to wed Nigerian businessman Simon Guobadia. According to Reality Tea, Guobadia and Williams’ wedding spanned multiple days and included multiple ceremonies, including a traditional Nigerian wedding ceremony at the Four Seasons. Multiple events at high-end venues and several costume changes drove up the price.
Kim Zolciak leaned hard into over-the-top extravagance when she was planning her 2011 wedding to Kroy Biermann. The ceremony took place at their Georgia home, but that didn’t mean it was cheap. A cake worth nearly $60,000, elaborate floral arrangements, and a $60,000 Baracci gown drove the price up quickly. Their special day cost more than $1 million, according to several sources. As is true with most things involving Kim and Kroy, there was still drama. Several vendors claimed they were not paid for their services. The couple’s happily ever after didn’t even last long. They announced their split in 2023. The divorce has been dramatic.
There have been several other weddings in the Bravo universe that broke the bank, too. Kandi Burrus and Teresa Giudice both showed off with massive budgets, too.
