Michael Jordan took the walk down the aisle for the second time in his life. Yes, his Airness married model Yvette Prieto Saturday in a super private, super exclusive wedding in Palm Beach.
Earlier Saturday, we told you the wedding was expected to have 2,000 guests. Shiny Sheet tweeted that guests included ex-NBA players Scottie Pippen and Patrick Ewing, as well as film maker Spike Lee. In addition to Pippen, Gossip Extra says Jordan’s former Chicago Bulls teammates Ron Harper and Toni Kukoc also attended the ceremony. Golfer Tiger Woods was another guest from the sporting world who was in attendance.
Jordan and Prieto wed in the same church where Donald Trump got married — the Episcopal Church at Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach. Below are photos of the church where the wedding took place, plus another picture of the massive must-see tent where the reception took place:

The Palm Beach Daily News has more details on the ceremony.
The reception took place by MJ’s home in the Bears Club area of Jupiter, Fla. Jeff Lichtenstein says Jack Nicklaus allowed MJ to put his massive 40,000 sq ft wedding tent on the driving range of the golf course. The tent is actually 5,000 square feet larger than Jordan’s huge home in Jupiter. Here’s a look at the setup:

So, how long will this marriage last? We’re wishing them a lifetime of happiness, but we will say it’s a good thing MJ has a prenuptial agreement in place.
