When your father is a former U.S. President and your mother is the Secretary of State, having your wedding reception in the local pub isn’t an option.

Chelsea Clinton’s big day in a country mansion on Saturday could cost up to £3.2million.

No expense will be spared at what will be the American society event of the year, with the equivalent of £6,400 being spent on each of the 500 guests.

Tents costing £400,000 have been set up, £70,000 is going on tables and crockery and a staggering £320,000 is being spent on flowers, thought to be Casablanca lillies and orchids. Miss Clinton’s dress, designed by Oscar de la Renta or Vera Wang, is rumoured to be a cool £16,000, and the jewellery she wears on the day is worth £160,000. The cake alone will cost £7,000 and security a further £130,000.

I met Hillary Diane Rodham when she was 22. Dare I say it? Hillary was better looking than Chelsea.

All the money, all the food, and all the big shot guests will not change the fact that the bride has a horse face! Congratulations Mrs. Ed!

I do feel sad for Chelsea, and mostly because, according to the Enquirer (often right) she is terrified her husband can’t be trusted to be faithful.

I’m sure that can be tied directly to the fact that she’s been subjected all her life to a dad whose a serial adulterer, and an experienced liar.

What a horrid legacy - going into a marriage unsure it will be fulfilling because you watched your parents play a charade all their life.

It would be a real shame if there were really bad thunderstorms right when the wedding started. With golf ball sized hail. Yep, a real shame.

And to think that they hardly had a nickel to their names when they first occupied the White House. America, what a county!

Of course. Politico, for what its worth, tonite claims that the proud father and mother of the bride will stay over the weekend at a huge estate of a young woman who just happens to be George Soros’ daughter. I’m sure the hostess and her billionaire father are doing this totally out of disinterested generosity.

Well. There went the old appetite for the rest of the evening.

Daddums Rodham musta had a whole woodshed full of ugly sticks to beat her with as a child.

"With her major-league wedding just days away, Chelsea Clinton was spotted paying a visit to Vera Wang July 27, 2010, despite a blatant attempt to go incognito."

Hillary must have saved a ton of money not buying shampoo over all these years.
