Other Interesting Facts:

• She was raised in Greenwich and is the daughter of William Bessette of White Plains, N.Y., and Mrs. Richard Freeman of New Canaan, Conn. Her stepfather, Dr. Richard Freeman, is an orthopedic surgeon. She spent two years at Greenwich High School before transferring to St. Mary High School, a defunct Roman Catholic institution also in Greenwich. She graduated in 1983.
   

• She came to Boston University right after high school, majored in elementary childhood education and received a bachelor of science degree in January 1988. She is described as ''not overly athletic and very low-key, a nice person,'' by one college friend.
   

• Although she never became a teacher, Bessette is said by a former college classmate to have considered social work. Instead, she ended up doing marketing in Boston for That's Entertainment, a part of the Lyons Group nightclub consortium. Joe Verange, who brought her into the firm, remembers her as ''a good schmoozer, a good networker.'' She staged parties at a variety of Lyons clubs -- including Citi (now Avalon), Axis and Zanzibar -- for such clients as Reebok, Lotus and Manufacturers Hanover.
   

• Wedding Facts: Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg's three children -- daughters Rose and Tatiana and son, Jack -- were the flower girls and the ring bearer. Rev. Charles J. O'Byrne of the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola in New York City flew in to perform the Roman Catholic ceremony in the island's First African Baptist Church, which has been in continuous use since being built by freed slaves at the end of the Civil War.
