LITTLE PIPE CAY — Donald Trump Jr. married Bettina Trump in a private ceremony on Little Pipe Cay in the Bahamas over the previous weekend. The couple shared a behind-the-scenes wedding video on social media on Friday.
The video shows the couple swimming in turquoise waters during a pre-wedding photo session, wearing coordinated light blue and white outfits and embracing on the shoreline. It includes footage of wedding preparations such as champagne toasts, close-ups of Bettina Trump’s crystal-adorned silver heels, her silk wedding dress hanging next to a bridal robe, and a custom charm bracelet featuring photos of her late father.
A candle featured in the video bore the phrase “Love Trumps All.” Donald Trump Jr. is shown preparing for the ceremony in a tan suit without a tie, with the inside of his jacket featuring a custom embroidery of a cursive 'B'—for Bettina—inside a heart. He also appears sitting on a lounge chair reading what appeared to be handwritten wedding vows or a note to his bride.
Fewer than 50 guests attended the wedding. Family members and close friends are seen in the video helping the couple prepare, sharing hugs, smiles, and celebratory moments. Donald Trump Jr.’s children—Kai, Tristan, and Spencer—were seated in the front row of the chapel during the ceremony. Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner were seated together, while Tiffany Trump and her husband Michael Boulos were seated in the back row.
Donald Trump Jr. arrived at the wedding chapel via golf cart. The video ends with a sparkler send-off and the couple sharing their first kiss as husband and wife, set to the Ronettes’ song “Be My Baby.” Former President Donald Trump was absent from the wedding video.
“La noche en que me casé con mi mejor amiga, mi amor y mi eternidad. Bettina, has traído tanta paz, alegría y luz a mi vida. Estando a tu lado, rodeado por nuestros hermanos, tu madre, Donnie y Kai, nunca me he sentido más agradecido ni más seguro de nada. Mi esposa. Mi corazón. Mi eternidad.” Donald Trump Jr. wrote in the social media post accompanying the video.
Prior to the video’s release, family members had shared Instagram photos, including one showing the inscription “Mrs. Trump” embroidered in cursive on white silk and a cocktail napkin quoting Jane Austen: “My heart is, and always will be, yours.” Additional security precautions were implemented after the wedding location was leaked.
