Has anyone seen a pic of the reception gown? I heard it was really pretty and I would love to see it. Also I haven't seen a full length pic of the MOB dress for the wedding. I have to say I am not a fan of the rehearsal dress, a little too "caftan" for my taste!
That could be. However commenting that she looked ugly is just mean.
Yes. Been to a lot, as the uber-elite catering company I mentioned earlier does a lot of weddings at mansions & estates, and we get to see them. Both the rabbi & minister get equal time to speak and do part of the ceremony - just as the bride & groom each get to speak. Only one may do the "For richer or poorer" part, or they might split it. They stand together and are cordial to each other. It's not like one thinks his religion is better and it should all have been his faith.
There's no mass as it's not a Catholic service, plus strict Catholism wouldn't allow an inter-faith marriage.
They end with the groom doing the traditional breaking of the wine glass.
At the reception, they do the Jewish hoopa(?) dance, the one where they raise up the bride & groom in individual chairs above their heads, the bride and groom hold a handkerchief between them, and everyone in the room carries them around & dances.
Sometimes, even the parents of the bride & groom are lifted up on chairs. That must have been a logistical Secret Service nightmare if they did that to Bill & Hillary! I've seen some people up on the chairs almost get DROPPED!
One thing I must say I observed at Jewish receptions, is that everyone dances. Unless there is a physical ailment in which a person can't join in, their culture really celebrates weddings with dancing. None of the self-conscious, "I'm too awkward to dance," crap. Instead, it's like, "It takes a village to celebrate a couple getting married."
Hillary's MOB dress she wore at the wedding was by Oscar de la Renta. That's all I know. I haven't seen a full length pic of it either.
I'm hoping the rehearsal dress looked better in person. Sometimes small print does not photograph well. I think Hillary wanted to show she was out of her stiff business pantsuits and was into relaxed MOB partying mode.
Again, from GMA: the speculation was that when Bill gave his speech at the reception, that his speech would be the memorable, emotional one of the evening. Instead, it turned out to be Marc's speech to Chelsea that brought the house down. He had eyes only for her the whole speech, stating how lucky he was to have her in his life, how much he loved her and how much she had changed him as a person.
The dance is called the hora; the chuppah is the wedding canopy under which the couple gets married.Yes.

I meant I kinda think her face is ugly
JMO..
Kinda looks like a moose.
Don't forget - "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder", so while you might think your DD is gorgeous, someone else may think she looks like a "moose"..
As mentioned Vera Wang. She was actually up there at the event. So she didn't just design the dress and send it.
She makes the most gorgeous stunning dresses. Yet she always looks like she just rolled out of bed 
. All that press in town, her gown is being worn by the star of the show....and that's what you choose to go out to dinner in 
I was a little surprised to see Hilary in a "rasberry" dress.
Vera, Vera, Vera
She usually looks disheveled. Also, she never appears comfortable in front of the camera. 
I am reminded of Princess Anne's wedding when I see Chelsea's wedding photos.
Back in the day when I was a little girl, Life magazine did photo spreads on the weddings of Princess Anne and Tricia Nixon. How I enjoyed looking at them! Those photos were the stuff fairy tales were made of.
Chelsea's photos remind me a lot of Anne's.
