Overview
- The couple legally married in Palm Beach County, Florida, on Thursday, May 21, as shown in a marriage license obtained by multiple outlets.
- They then held an intimate destination celebration on a private Exuma island reported as Little Pipe Cay with about 40 guests that included Don Jr.’s five children and siblings Ivanka, Eric and Tiffany Trump.
- President Trump did not attend and said he remained in Washington because of official duties related to Iran, and First Lady Melania Trump also did not travel to the island.
- Family members posted selective Instagram photos from the weekend that showed scenery and relatives but largely omitted images of the bride and groom, and the couple shared only small personal details such as wedding bands and a ‘Mrs. Trump’ post.
- The pair scaled back earlier plans for a larger White House or Mar‑a‑Lago wedding because of wartime optics, and they plan a bigger reception later this year, possibly at the White House.
