Go to: Previous Article Next Article
The biggest wedding of the summer this year was not that of a celebrity actor or starlet. It was the wedding of the only daughter of a former president and a Secretary of State. It was a wedding that was for most Americans the closest thing to a royal wedding. Chelsea Clinton, the only daughter of former president of the United States Bill Clinton and his wife the current Secretary of State Hilary clinton, was married to her long time boyfriend Marc Mezvinsky.
The wedding set the tone for opulence at an eyepopping $3 million dollars eclipsing monetarily just about every other major celebrity summer wedding. The closest wedding in glitz to that of the new Mr. and Mrs. Mezvinsky was the wedding of Carrie Underwood and Marc Fisher and that wedding in all even with all the trimmings only cost $500,000.
Chelsea Clinton's familiy upheld the trend of keeping the ceremony private. Not only was security on the details of the wedding on the Secret Service level, the guest list purposely excluded most celebrities and even the current President of the United States, Barack Obama. The wedding was kept to only the people the bride new personally and kept to a modest 400 or so guests.
The bride was married to her long time boyfriend Hedge Fund manager Marc Mezvinsky. The two have known each other since they were kids and even went to college together at Stanford. Mr Mezvinski himself is also from a political family with both of his parents having served in political offices.
The couple was wedded in a touching interfaith ceremonyl. Mr. Mezvinski is Jewish while Ms. Clinton's family is Methodist. The wedding had both a rabbi and a minister preside over the wedding ceremony. The couple wed on the famous Astor Courts estate. It is a historical landmark built for John Jacob Astor a member of one of the richest families in American history. The couple opted foran outdoor ceremony on the lawns of the estate and exchanged rings under a gazebo.
Ms. Clinton was stunning in her Vera Wang princess style wedding gown. Speculation was rife on the designer and many were betting that Ms. Clinton would follow the lead of her mother and wear Oscar de la Renta. The dress was designed with a voluminous underskirt of tulle draped with a sleeveless silk over dress. To top off the dress the dress was belted with a real diamond studded belt adding to the overall regal look of the gown.
The wedding reception menu was largely vegan in respect to the bride but the couple gave as wedding favors wine weddding favor bags that inclued bottles of local wine and other wine accessories. All in all the wedding lived up to much of the hype to become one of the most memorable of the year.
