UPDATED: The big day: Chelsea Clinton weds in Rhinebeck
UPDATED 10:22 p.m.
RHINEBECK, N.Y. -- Chelsea Clinton has married her longtime boyfriend at an exclusive estate along New York's Hudson River.
Bill Clinton and Hillary Rodham Clinton announced in a statement that their daughter wed investment banker Marc Mezvinsky on Saturday after weeks of secrecy and buildup that had celebrity watchers flocking to the small village for the evening nuptials.
More than 400 guests were expected at the historic estate, and some of the celebrities spotted in Rhinebeck for the event included actors Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen, fashion designer Vera Wang and Madeleine Albright, who was secretary of state during Bill Clinton's second term as president.
Details of the wedding have been difficult to come by, with shopkeepers, innkeepers, vendors and restaurateurs sworn to secrecy.
Officials restricted airspace over the estate, and the area will remain a no-fly zone until 3:30 a.m. Sunday.
