There are OTT weddings - and then there are the nuptials of lovebirds Evka and Lukas.
The teenage bride and her beloved were married recently in Slovakia, with a video capturing the happy day now doing the rounds in Eastern Europe and Russia.
The seven-minute long footage offers a rare, real-life glimpse into the delightfully extravagant weddings that are expected as standard among the Romani community.
Musicians are seen gratefully accepting tips amounting to hundreds while later in the evening, guests pin €500 and €200 notes to the bride's dress.
Evka in fact wears three stunning gowns over the course of the celebration - the most impressive being the one donned for the ceremony. Heavily embellished, the 19-year-old accessorises her look with giant jewels and a gold tiara.
The 20-year-old groom furthermore complements the sweeping frock by sporting dramatic gold detail on his white suit.
Online observers report that the wedding dress cost a cool £175,000 - although the reception was priced at a more modest £30,000.
