Word is that Chelsea Clinton's end-of-July wedding will take place at Astor Courts in upstate New York. The 50 acre estate hosts an ornate mansion and stunning views overlooking the Hudson river.

Astor Courts was designed in 1902 for fur trade heir John Jacob Astor IV. Tragically, Astor went down with the Titanic just eight years later.

Since Astor's death, the home has changed ownership several times and served different purposes. It was once even a retirement home for senior citizens. The great-grandson of the home's first architect restored the home to it's original grandeur in 2008, and The New York Times made a photographic slide show of the property. Check it out here.
