Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky Wed in New York

After much buzz, Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky married on Saturday in Rhinebeck, New York. About 400 guests were in attendance, including, of course, former President Bill Clinton (aka dad) and Secretary of State HIllary Clinton (aka mom). The wedding was a decidedly uncelebrified affair, though actor pair Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen did attend, along with what
PEOPLE calls "a handful of congressmen and other prominent Democrats." Chelsea, who America watched grow up in the White House, wore a dress designed by family friend Vera Wang.
Shortly after the ceremony, Bill and Hillary Clinton released a statement:
"Today, we watched with great pride and overwhelming emotion as Chelsea and Marc wed in a beautiful ceremony at Astor Courts, surrounded by family and their close friends. We could not have asked for a more perfect day to celebrate the beginning of their life together, and we are so happy to welcome Marc into our family. On behalf of the newlyweds, we want to give special thanks to the people of Rhinebeck for welcoming us and to everyone for their well-wishes on this special day."
Danson commented on the wedding, telling PEOPLE, "We want to wish them the best. They are great kids, very family-oriented."
Chelsea, 30, and Marc, 32, met in 1993, but only began dating in 2005. They live together in New York City.

The other "girls" were in the white house during their teen age years which made it very difficult for them to have any type of life without the idiotic reporters.

I don't care for Bill and Hillary but I think Chelsea is probably
a very nice person. Their wedding looked beautiful and she looked pretty. I wish them a lifetime of happiness.

Met her in person once in NYC and trust me she will make a blind man flinch.
Poor guy has to look at that FUGLY face until the divorce/post whitewater suicide.
ARE YOU LOOKING IN THE MIRROR?...DO YOU SEE ANYTHING BESIDES HOMELY AND JEALOUSY
She grew up in the American public eye from the age of 14 to 22 (2 presidential terms) and then the press tracked her through college. She appears to have been a good scholar, stayed out of the "fast lane" and kept her life as private as she could. At the age of 30 she married a young man she has known for more than ten years. By celebrity and internet standards, that sounds pretty dull. She is well groomed, well spoken and appears non pretentious.....very much like Caroline Kennedy, and I'll be willing to bet that she will have the same good marriage track record as other well known and private people.

I say bravo to Chelsea, but as to the other daughters. They are quite fine young woman who unlike chelsea did not have the press on their side.
I always thought she was ugly. It seems democrats always have the ugliest children.

you are a negative person who calls a person "ugly" when ugliness is only skin deep.but your ugliness is from the inside your soul and i pity your life.
Your'e kidding right? Take another look at Cheney's kids one in particular has to sneak up on a mirror. Nixon's kids arne't no prize either pal. They probably had to tie a steak around her neck just so the dog would play with her. And Reagan's kids probably keeps the negatives in their family album instead of the real pictures.
Well, what do you look like, Sara?
CONGRATS Chelsea & Marc. I have always liked Chelsea.

Congratulations to this great couple. Chelesa is a good role model for other young women.
And I bet you are really good looking. You are not a very nice person. There are more important things in life than looks. The old saying beauty is only skin deep. Shame on you.
I don't care who you are that's funny.
Chelsea got married in an awesome Vera Wang's dress!!!
