United States senator Cory Booker is now a husband. He married Alexis Lewis, a real-estate executive at an L.A.-based firm, in two separate ceremonies this past week: One on Monday at a courthouse in Newark, New Jersey and another on Saturday at an undisclosed location in Washington, D.C.
The Bookers announced their marriage in a joint Instagram post, where they wrote they were “overflowing with gratitude.” According to the New York Times , they celebrated after the courthouse with Italian pastries for Lewis and a vegan chocolate chip cookie dough cake for Booker. (The Times noted that Lewis is not vegan like her new husband.) Their interfaith ceremony in D.C. was attended by family only and hopefully had more food options.
