Clinton: Chelsea’s wedding stressful and wonderful

WASHINGTON — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says preparing for her daughter’s wedding was the most wonderful, difficult and stressful task she’s taken on in the last few months.

In an interview for broadcast Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Clinton said that being the mother of the bride and planning a wedding is always stressful.

But, she says, “Doing it long distance, jet-lagged, on planes, in the midst of diplomatic negotiations, made it a little more so.”

Chelsea Clinton, the only child of former President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton, wed her longtime boyfriend earlier this summer before an exclusive high society gathering at an elegant estate in upstate New York.
