35-year-old Harris is the only son of former AirAsia Indonesia president Pin Harris.
His wife, Gwen Ashley Widodo, is the 19-year-old daughter of Surabaya property tycoon Markus Widodo and fashion designer Warren Tjandra.
Indonesian celebrities such as Raffi Ahmad and Melaney Ricardo hosted the event, while singers Raisa, Afgan, and Via Vallen were among the guests.
Each guest received door gifts from Hermès, reportedly costing around S$268 (US$200) each. Added up, that would have cost a princely S$536,000 in total.
