When Did Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky Tie the Knot?
Their love story as a married couple officially began on a warm July day in 2010 when they exchanged vows at Astor Courts, a breathtaking estate overlooking the Hudson River in Rhinebeck, New York. Chelsea, a global health advocate, wore a stunning custom Vera Wang gown during the lavish ceremony, which reportedly cost between $2 million to $3 million, according to Today.
"Today, we watched with great pride and overwhelming emotion as Chelsea and Marc wed in a beautiful ceremony at Astor Courts, surrounded by family and their close friends," Bill and Hillary Clinton said in a statement after the nuptials. "We could not have asked for a more perfect day to celebrate the beginning of their life together, and we are so happy to welcome Marc into our family. On behalf of the newlyweds, we want to give special thanks to the people of Rhinebeck for welcoming us and to everyone for their well-wishes on this special day," they added.
Chelsea has earned a substantial amount over the years, but her husband Marc has also built a successful career. According to Town & Country, Marc began his career at Goldman Sachs as an emerging markets foreign exchange strategist after college. He later joined 3G Capital before founding the hedge fund Eaglevale Partners in 2011. Although the fund closed in May 2016 after reportedly losing nearly 90 percent of its value, Marc bounced back by joining the private equity firm TPG in 2019. Together, the couple has an estimated combined net worth of $30 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
