As her official wedding photos reveal, Ivanka Trump was a stunning bride in her custom Vera Wang gown and diamonds from her own fine-jewelry collection.
Trump, 27, married Jared Kushner, 28, in a private Jewish ceremony at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, in front of 500 of their friends and family members. Among the star-studded guests were: Russell Crowe, Natalie Portman, Barbara Walters, Regis Philbin, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and the current New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo.
The bride, the co-host of Celebrity Apprentice and a vice president at her father’s real estate company, and her new husband, who is the publisher of the New York Observer and an executive at the Kushner Companies, released few photos and kept most of the details of their wedding private. Donald Trump told PEOPLE he offered a simple toast to the couple: “Be happy and enjoy your life.”
The newlyweds, who are planning to honeymoon in Africa, did spend most of the night dancing. “It was a great wedding,” said the father-of-the-bride. “I’m very happy. They’re really a beautiful, smart couple. I think you’ll hear a lot of great things from them in the years to come.”
It’s official!
Ivanka Trump wed Jared Kushner, publisher of the New York Observer, in a ceremony at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J., on Sunday.
“She looks amazing,” a rep told PEOPLE of the bride.
She walked down the aisle in a Vera Wang gown inspired by Grace Kelly, before celebrating with her new husband, her father Donald Trump and more than 500 guests, including Regis Philbin, who was called on to sing at the reception planned by celebrity event designer Preston Bailey.
The bride was looking forward to “dancing like a maniac with all of my friends,” according to a recent post to her Twitter account.
Trump, 27, who got engaged on July 15, told Brides.com, “I always envisioned myself having a traditional and elegant wedding.”
Perhaps to work out some of those pre-wedding jitters, the bride got a little exercise before the ceremony.
“Just finished a gorgeous hike. The leaves are spectacular and the sun is shining,” she posted Sunday to Twitter. “Everything is simply perfect! I’m getting married today!”
