Three days of celebrations to mark the marriage of French President Nicolas Sarkozy's ex-wife and her Moroccan-born lover kicked off near New York on Friday, guests of the couple told AFP.
Cecilia Ciganer-Albeniz and events organizer Richard Attias were due to tie the knot over the weekend, the guests said, as they left their upmarket Manhattan hotel for a party at Attias's Connecticut home late Friday.
Details surrounding the wedding ceremony itself have been shrouded in secrecy, with rumors swirling that the couple could hold a Jewish ceremony at a New York synagogue on Sunday.
But even the guests, who asked not to be named, said they did not know where and when the ceremony would take place. One said he expected the ceremony to be on Sunday, followed by a reception at the Rockefeller Center.
He added that the invitees, a total of 150 of whom were expected to attend the weekend celebrations, would go out for a Tex-Mex meal on Saturday and take in the ABBA-themed Broadway show "Mama Mia!"
