‘RHONY’ Luann de Lesseps Kicks Off Her 3-Day Bash For Her Big New Year’s Eve Wedding — See Video & Pics HERE!
Love is in the air and the party has begun in Palm Beach Florida, where Luann de Lesseps and Thomas D’Agostino Jr. are preparing to exchange vows during the final hours of 2016.
The Real Housewives of New York couple’s rehearsal dinner was held on a yacht Friday, before the party shifted to the Chesterfield Hotel, where guests were treated to an upscale “crooner” affair.

“It’s going to be more of a crooner kind of evening,” Luann tells People. “On the boat, I wanted to have like country rock music, relaxed, take off your shoes feeling, and after that I wanted it to be kind of a swooner, crooner evening with Sinatra kind of music. So it’s one big party on Friday.”
Guests will relax on Saturday with a round of golf or a lounge on the beach, before the big event, taking place this evening. The reception following the ceremony will double as a 50th birthday party for Tom, and a New Year’s Eve bash.
Fellow Bravoleb, Cynthia Bailey, and past cast mate, Jill Zarin, are in Florida, celebrating with the happy lovebirds. Luann’s reality bestie, Sonja Morgan, is in Thailand, evidently not attending the festivities.

Luann and Tom weathered a bumpy ride on their way to the altar. Bravo cameras captured the fallout, after it was revealed that Tom had engaged in a public PDA session with another woman, during a drunken night out. Luann forgave her fiance, but many viewers wondered if Luann would actually make it down the aisle.
