Chelsea Clinton Wedding Details UPDATE: When, Who, Where & What Dress Designer (VIDEO)

First Posted: 06/21/2010 8:49 am Updated: 05/25/2011 4:50 pm

New York Magazine has some new details about Chelsea Clinton's upcoming wedding to Marc Mezvinsky. The nuptials will reportedly be held July 31--but supposedly not on Martha's Vineyard and instead somewhere in New York:

"The wedding planner will contact each guest directly a week in advance and let them know where it is," says the fund-raiser, who speculated that the Hamptons are out because the L.I.E. can be a very long road. The smart money, then, is somewhere upstate, possibly in Westchester or Dutchess County--most likely on property owned by a Clinton supporter. "You really see who their closest friends are in this list," says an insider. "It's not a celebrity-driven wedding."

Former DNC chairman Terry McAuliffe may have been helping out with the location's selection. However, the bulk of the wedding planning is being taken on by Massachusetts event planner Bryan Rafanelli, who has been Hillary Clinton's go-to guy. He's also marrying Congressman Anthony Weiner to Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin. According to "bride-side sources" only 400 people will be invited--including donors, campaign, State Department, and Clinton Foundation staff, foreign dignitaries and both Clinton and Obama White House officials, but Chelsea says she must personally know every guest.

UPDATE:
According to New York writer Dorree Shafrir's Tuesday appearance on "The Early Show," the rumor is that the bride will wear a dress by Oscar de la Renta. Of course, we presented quite a few Chelsea Clinton wedding dress options back in December. Vote for your favorite!

She took after her mother's beauty and was Daddy's little girl, so that's where she gets her near perfect look.

Does she have to keep the bride maids away from Dad?

A really stupid remark considering that there have been and currently are so many many politicians in office who have strayed off. Don't you get it? It's a man thing! Quit harping on Bill as if he is the only one who ever looked at another woman. Lay it to rest and stop insulting his daughter.

Come on. This is just a young lady who is getting married and wants a nice wedding. She came to the White House as a young teenager and took some abuse from the conservative media. That's when I quit listening to them. Anyone who would make fun of a 13 year old is more than an idiot. She has stayed in the background. Not made a fuss or muss. Let her have her wedding without all this sniping. By the way, I felt the same way about Jenna Bush. These are just young people trying to start the next phase of their life.
