The closely-guarded US secret that is Chelsea Clinton's upcoming nuptials with Marc Mezvinsky this weekend has been touted as the society event of the year.
It's bound to be a big affair, and the wedding budget has been revealed by Hello magazine.
Experts have suggested the grand day could cost up to £3.2 million.
Tents adorned with glass walls are expected to cost around £400,000, while flowers, including orchids and Casablanca lilies, could amount to a hefty £320,000.
Chelsea, daughter of former US president Bill Clinton and current secretary of state Hillary Clinton, will probably be sporting a gown designed either by Vera Wang or Oscar de la Renta, which has cost around £16,000.
Her jewellery will cost a whopping ten times more than her dress, around £160,000, according to estimates reported in the magazine.
The cake alone is said to be worth £7,000 and security may well account for £130,000 of the impressively-sized budget.
Chelsea's fiance, Marc, comes from a fairly controversial, politically-linked family.
Mezvinksky has a successful career on Wall Street, working as a hedge fund manager.
