According to well-connected residents of Martha’s Vineyard, the liberal summer enclave will be home to a Democratic royal wedding this summer between Chelsea Clinton and her longtime boyfriend, Marc Mezvinsky (the son of two former Democratic congresspeople). Insiders say that it’s their understanding that the two will wed in late August, at the summer home of longtime Democratic power broker, and friend of Bill, Vernon Jordan, in Chilmark. (This contradicts earlier reports that placed the ceremony at Ted Danson’s Vineyard place.) It’s a multi-acre former sheep farm that’s “up from the road, away from the rigmarole,” says one Vineyarder. But will the current president show up? Perhaps: It’s something of an open secret that the Obama family plans to hit the Vineyard this August. Spokespeople for the Clinton family say no one in the family is getting hitched this year.
