Bill Clinton's Marital Tips to Newlyweds
By Suzi Parker - Politics DailyBill Clinton is a romantic at heart. The former president penned a letter dated Aug. 8, 2007, to Sarah Fortune McGregor and Jeremy Todd Gill, congratulating them on their nuptials. It wasn't just any Arkansas wedding, though. McGregor and Gill decided to marry in the Fayetteville house where Bill and Hillary Clinton tied the knot. They were the first couple to do so since the famous political couple married there in October 1975. The couple's friend had a connection to Clinton and presented them with the letter as a wedding gift. "We wanted a place that was intimate and that we could ...
Clinton Wedding's Media Frenzy Hits Small NY Town
By Mara Gay - AOL News(July 29) -- Reporters are flocking to the site of Chelsea Clinton's upcoming wedding in Rhinebeck, N.Y. -- and driving themselves mad as they struggle in vain to get details about the lavish but fiercely private affair. The daughter of former president Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton never ran for president herself, but her wedding has become the latest subject of media frenzy anyway, from the event's big price tag (estimated at $3 million to $5 million) to the designer dress Chelsea may wear (Is it Vera Wang?). This week, the gossip site TMZ even reported that the ...
President Obama Won't Attend Chelsea Clinton's Wedding
By Politics Daily Staff - Politics DailyWell, now we know who won't be attending Chelsea Clinton's wedding on Saturday – wherever it takes place. That would be President Obama. Asked at the end of Monday's White House press briefing if the president would be at the nuptials for Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky, Robert Gibbs answered "no."

Chelsea Clinton's 'Wedding of the Decade' Could Top $2 Million
By Annie Groer - Politics DailyOn Oct. 11, 1975, Bill Clinton married Hillary Rodham before just 15 relatives and friends in the living room of the house he'd bought for the two of them in Fayetteville, Ark. The bride, who'd met her beloved five years earlier at Yale Law School, waited until almost the last minute to buy a dress -- a Victorian-style Jessica McClintock frock -- off the rack at Dillard's department store. After the ceremony, they greeted another 100 guests at a reception given by friends, then left the country for an Acapulco honeymoon. Fast-forward nearly 35 years to July 31, 2010, when the Clintons are ...
Journalists Arrested Outside Estate Where Clinton May Wed
By Stuart Warner - AOL News(July 23) -- OK, let's not call it Wedding-Gate. Although a wedding, a gate and arrests are involved. Two Norwegian journalists were charged with trespassing after they were caught taking photos of the Rhinebeck, N.Y., estate where Chelsea Clinton is expected to get married, The Associated Press reported. "We did not realize it was forbidden to take the picture of the gate of the house where the Clinton wedding is to be," Helje Solberg, managing editor for the newspaper Verdens Gang, told the AP. She said the newspaper's two journalists were not on the property Wednesday afternoon ...

Hillary Rodham Clinton says she and former President Bill Clinton are very happy for the end-of-the-month wedding of their only child, Chelsea, though she knows they'll be emotional at the happy occasion. "You should assume that if he makes it down the aisle in one piece, it's going to be a major accomplishment," the secretary of state said of the former president in an NBC interview. "He is going to be so emotional, as am I." Chelsea Clinton, 30, a graduate student at Columbia University, is marrying investment banker Marc Mezvinsky, 32, on ...
Astor Courts: 9 Key Facts About Chelsea's Rhinebeck, NY, Wedding Spot
By Dana Chivvis - AOL News(July 15) -- Given the 500-person guest list for Chelsea Clinton's impending nuptials to Marc Mezvinsky on July 31, it would suit her well to have her wedding at the Astor mansion in Rhinebeck, N.Y., as rumors predict. The century-old mansion, formally referred to as Astor Courts or Ferncliff Casino, is a quintessentially massive and grand product of the Gilded Age. As venues go, it would also draw a clear contrast with the backwoods bonanza that Bristol Palin has in mind for her wedding to Levi Johnston (who reportedly will be wearing camo) on some unidentified date this summer. Below, ...
