Price Cut For Rhinebeck Estate Where Chelsea Got Married

Price Cut For Rhinebeck Estate Where Chelsea Got Married

The 50-acre Rhineback estate where Chelsea Clinton got married in July may be stunning, but it's not selling! The historic Astor Courts was on the market for $12 million before the Clinton-Mezvinsky nupitals, but then it went up to $13.5 million afterwards. Now, the Post reports, "With no takers, it's up for auction -- with a minimum cut-rate bid of just $7.5 million. The price says as much about the former president's declining star power as it does about the declining market." more ›

Chelsea Clinton's Food Choices Rock the Wedding World

Chelsea Clinton's Food Choices Rock the Wedding World

Though the wedding is long over, nitpickers are dissecting every choice of the new Mrs. Mezvinsky's wedding. On the chopping block today? The food. Chelsea Clinton is a vegetarian, and it was already reported that she had a gluten-free wedding cake. But she also made the decision to serve meat at the reception dinner. And now, the argument over what kind of food to serve at weddings is shaking the internet to its core. more ›

Donald Trump Calls Someone Else Tacky

Donald Trump Calls Someone Else Tacky

If there's someone who knows what tacky is, it's Donald Trump! The real estate developer blasted the owners of the Astor Courts, where Chelsea Clinton had her wedding, for running an ad saying, "Yes. It's for Sale... Home of Recent Celebrity Wedding." Trump told Page Six, "Over the years, I've seen many tacky things take place in the wonderful world of real estate, but never have I seen anything so bad. It was disgusting, and if I were Bill or Hillary Clinton, I would never speak to their 'good friend,' the owner, again. They were used." It's unclear if Trump finds (allegedly!) inflating sales figures for his Soho building tacky or not. more ›

Gawkers Will Not Get the Hell Out of Rhinebeck

Gawkers Will Not Get the Hell Out of Rhinebeck

Even though the Clinton-Mezvinsky wedding was two days ago, the Wall Street Journal (paywall) reports that paparazzi and out-of-towners are continuing to wander the streets of the Hudson Valley town, hoping the former first family is still there. They are most likely not. The Sunday brunch after the wedding was held a mile away in the town of Grasmere. However, attendees must have been tired—the reception reportedly lasted until 5 a.m.! more ›

Aww, Chelsea Clinton's Future Ex-Con Dad-In-Law Speaks

Aww, Chelsea Clinton's Future Ex-Con Dad-In-Law Speaks

Chelsea Clinton will be marrying Marc Mezvinsky on Saturday and the city of Rhinebeck is flooded with the curious and security (one resident said to NY1, "I think I just saw secret servicemen over at the Burts Bees corner of CVS"). One of the proudest people is likely Mezvinsky's father, Edward, a former Congressman who went to prison for fraud. He told Inside Edition, "I’m remorseful for what happened, it was a terrible time, and I was punished for that. And I respect that and accept responsibility for what happened, and now I’m trying to move on and am grateful I have the opportunity for that." more ›

Daily News Describes Clinton Wedding as "Practical"

Daily News Describes Clinton Wedding as "Practical"

What does a now-estimated $3 million budget get a bride these days? $15,000 porta-potties, and modesty. That's what the Daily News attempts to argue by comparing Chelsea Clinton's upcoming wedding to other outlandish celebrity weddings. Ok so she doesn't have a "Swarovski-crystal-encrusted tuxedo made for a pet Chihuahua" like Carrie Underwood did, nor will she stuff "magnolia trees with white roses" like Fergie. She'll just reserve part of the budget for shutting down all the airspace above Rhinebeck, NY. Totally low-key. more ›

Chelsea Clinton's Porta-Potties Nicer Than Your Apartment

      

When you invite an estimated 500 people to your wedding, they're going to need a place to do their business. So if you have a budget of over $2 million, why not treat them to the best? TMZ got a look at the porta-potties Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky will supply at their wedding, which look like they have the square footage of most New York apartments—and more storage space too! Seriously, what are they storing under those sinks, Linda Tripp? The Clintons have reserved 4-6 of the trailers for the big day, which feature flushing toilets and stereo music, just to get the guests in the mood. The cost? $15,000. more ›

Chelsea Clinton's Wedding Means Hudson Valley Lockdown

            

Last week, two Norwegian journalists were arrested outside of Astor Courts, the 50-acre estate rumored to be the location of Chelsea Clinton's wedding to Marc Mezvinsky this Saturday. According to the AP, "Thomas Bjorn Nilsson, 43, of New York, and Kjerste Sortland, 41, of Snorova, Norway, were charged with a [trespassing] violation after they were stopped around 2 p.m. Wednesday on the" sprawling estate's ground. The journalists' editor said the fine will be paid, but the police were overreacting and that they were not trespassing, "We did not realize it was forbidden to take the picture of the gate of the house where the Clinton wedding is to be." Never underestimate the importance of a Clinton-connected gate. more ›
