Contest Directions: 
Chelsea Clinton's wedding day is finally here - and it's dominating the news today. The media already called it America's "Royal" Wedding - because of the number and caliber of the guests and because the wedding price tag has by far beaten all celebrity weddings and even Royal weddings in history. The total wedding price is $5 million, out of which $3 mil is paid by papa Bill, and the other $2 mil is being laid off on US Taxpayers as Secret Service costs for protecting former president Clinton and foreign heads of state, such as the presidents of France and Italy and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who are among the 500 invited guests along with Barbara Streisand, Steven Spielberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Ted Turner. All 500 guests will be asked to surrender their mobile phones and any recording devices before being subjected to security checks suitable for an international summit.
For comparison, when country music star Keith Urban married actress Nicole Kidman in 2006, their wedding cost $250,000. This large sum hardly counts as a celebrity wedding. When mega-millionaire real estate mogul Donald Trump married model Melania Knauss, the wedding bill was $1,000,000. The marriages of Madonna and film director Guy Ritchie, Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren, and Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones pushed up the cost of celebrity marriages to $1.5 million.
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes upped the ante to $2,000,000.
The cost of the wedding of Diana Spencer to Prince Charles? $3,000,000.
