Huma Abedin, political strategist and former Hillary Clinton aide, dished the details of her Saturday wedding to philanthropist Alex Soros, the son of progressive billionaire George Soros, to Vogue.

The couple’s wedding, held at their home in Water Mill, N.Y., drew a crowd of political elites: Clinton, former President Clinton, former Vice President Harris and former second gentleman Doug Emhoff were among the attendees.

Abedin told Vogue the pair originally planned to elope, but they changed their mind at an engagement party thrown by former first lady and secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Clinton, along with Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, urged the duo to hold a wedding celebration and suggested a date.

“We got engaged with no plans to have a wedding,” Abedin told Vogue. “We talked about hosting small dinners in different cities because we have close family and friends all over the world. But once we decided to have a wedding, or rather when we were instructed to have a wedding by Hillary and Anna [Wintour], who pulled out their calendars and suggested the date despite Alex saying he was scheduled to be at a conference in Europe! it was set.”

Clinton and Wintour were involved in the planning process as well, Abedin said.

“Our first meeting was at my mother-in-law Susan’s house with Hillary and Anna, and when all three asked me what I wanted, it was a surreal moment to have people who cared so much about making the day perfect for all our friends and family,” she told Vogue.

Abedin wore a custom off-the-shoulder Givenchy gown to the Saturday nuptials, which were also attended by Chelsea Clinton, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.), actress Jennifer Lawrence, Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama, actor Adrien Brody, supermodel Karlie Kloss, comedian Jimmy Fallon, financier James Rothschild and more.

Hillary Clinton was among those who spoke at the reception.

“Hillary has been my mentor and role model for three decades,” Abedin said. “Her loyalty, love, and support has been one of the greatest gifts in my life. She insisted we have this wedding and to let people celebrate us. Whenever anything went awry in the planning process, I would say ‘it’s your fault!’ As usual, she was right!”

Abedin shared a photo of Clinton with Harris, showing both dressed in floor-length navy gowns, along with the caption, “Two trailblazers!”

Abedin, who began her political career as a White House intern, was formerly married to ex-Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.).
