Can You Book a Hotel Room for Derek Jeter's Wedding?

Where: 135 West Gate Drive [map], Huntington, ny, United States, 11743

So apparently Derek Jeter and Minka Kelly are getting married next year if this report in the NY Post is to be believed. According to their undercover reporters, #2 and Minka are set to marry on November 5, 2010 at the Oheka Castle in Huntington, Long Island where recently the Jonas Brother, Kevin, got married.

Yet Oheka is not just a fancy castle where the rich and famous get married. You can actually spend the night there in one of the castle's 32 hotel rooms.

That is, if the cheesy copy on the website hasn't made you too queasy. A standout line?

Pamper yourself and your spouse with an in-room togetherness massage.

Luckily, the folks at the castle agree with us (it was once the country retreat of the Guinness family, which probably has something to do with it). So they’ve designated October as Guinness Month and 15 October as the date for a five course "Black and White dinner", where the head Brewer will talk about the black stuff.
