Chelsea Clinton wedding rumors are all over the internet as everyone scrambles to get what little wedding information there is available. Chelsea Clinton will marry investment banker Marc Mezvinsky tomorrow July 31st. There is less than 30 hours until the big moment, so let' go through a little of what we think we know about the Chelsea Clinton Wedding.

Chelsea Clinton Wedding Rumor #1

The Chelsea Clinton wedding is being held in the small town of Rhinebeck, NY, about three hours north of Manhattan. They will supposedly be wed at the Astor Courts, a 13,000-sq. ft. pavilion built between 1902 and 1904 for John Jacob Astor IV and designed to feel like the Grand Trianon at Versailles.

The New York Times has reported that "the Federal Aviation Administration said late Wednesday that it would enforce a temporary ban on flights below 2,000 feet for the area surrounding the estate on the Hudson River where Ms. Clinton is to be married." However, no confirmation has been made that the restricted airspace request came from the Secret Service.

Rumor or fact, it seems that President Obama will not be at the Clinton nuptials. He stated on a live appearance on "The View" that he would not be attending because he said he had not received an invitation and that "you don't want two Presidents at the same wedding". Therefore, the Obama's are not on the Clinton wedding guest list.
