The rumors are true. Jay-Z (Shawn Carter) and Beyonce Knowles finally tied the knot. Based on reports by the Washington Post and other media outlets, the marriage ceremony took place on Friday, April 4, 2008. Here are the details. . .
THE WEDDING PARTY
In the style of a very public, but private couple, the wedding party for the newlyweds was small. It only involved a few close family members and friends. To date, we know the following people attended the wedding along with a few anonymous staffers who helped the nuptials come to life.
Matthew Knowles
Tina Knowles
Solange Knowles
Gloria Carter
Kelly Rowland
Michelle Williams
Steve Stoute
Gwyneth Paltrow
It was a close-knit group that only includes the people most intimate with the couple. This is special because it shows that the dynamic duo only wanted to exchange vows in a circle of love. (Good for them.)
THE CEREMONY AND RECEPTION
Unfortunately, the actual location of the wedding is still a mystery. So far, reports indicate that the actual ceremony took place in New York under the direction of the bride's minister. It's speculated that it may have taken place at Jay-Z's Tribeca apartment. However, it is yet to be confirmed. What we do know is that the reception definitely occurred there.
Wedding guests (dressed in all-white) arrived at Jay-Z's apartment along with a crew of caterers. This event is what confirmed for many that a wedding had taken place between the two lovers. When large floral arrangements were dropped off, it was obvious that more than just a casual party took place. Plus, it was all over the news that Jay-Z and Beyonce had filed for a marriage license recently. Since the license was only good for a couple of months, it was only a matter of time before the two actually wed.
