Son of George Soros, Hungarian-origin American billionaire investor, author, philanthropist, activist who funded Democratic Party, Alex Soros has married Huma Abedin, vice chair of Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign for President of the United States, which the New York Times described as the “wedding of the liberal royalty” in Hamptons, New York last weekend.

Talking to Vogue about the wedding, Hillary Clinton said, “I’m looking forward to being a witness to their marriage; to the celebration that we all are going to be part of; to seeing so many longtime friends gathered in one place to really enjoy being part of Huma and Alex’s start of their married life. And I think we all could use some fun, so I’m looking forward to all of it.” 

Abedin revealed a very interesting fact about her wedding while speaking to Vogue. She said that before she reached her lavish wedding ceremony, one of the memorable moments of it was taking a shuttle bus to the event as it was heavily raining the night before the wedding and even on that day. “The ground was wet and muddy, so we had to ride over to protect the dress from getting wet. We had a brief window of time when it wasn’t going to rain. I couldn’t sit, so I didn’t wrinkle the dress. So, there we were, cramming into a shuttle,” she said.
