Michael Jordon has married his girlfriend, Yvette Prieto. The Los Angeles Times reported that the couple got married in Palm Beach, Florida over the weekend.

The 50-year-old NBA legend married the 35-year-old Cuban former model in a lavish reception at a private golf club with between 300-500 guests in attendance. The guests were transported by tour buses to the ceremony on Saturday April 27 at Bethesda-by-the-Sea Episcopal Church.

The couple has been together for five years and US Weekly confirmed that they celebrated at a reception at the Bear's Club in Jupiter Florida and it was planned by Sharon Sacks Productions.

According to US Weekly the bride wore a French silk voile corseted J'Aton Couture gown that had Swarovski crystals and handmade silk lace.

"The bride and groom selected white roses, peonies and tulips with accents of purple for their floral arrangements by Mark's Garden. After the ceremony, the flowers were donated to the Jupiter Medical Center," reported US Weekly.

Entertainment included Hollywoods hottest acts--Usher, Robin Thicke, K'Jon, DJ MC Lyte and the 18-piece band The Source.

They also had their wedding cake by Edda's Cake Designs which was a seven-layer, all white, white rum cake decorated with sugar crystals in their monogram.

"This is the second marriage for the former Chicago Bulls player. He was previously married to Juanita Vanoy for 17 years before they split in 2006. The former spouses share three children: sons Jeffrey Michael, 24, and Marcus James, 22, and daughter Jasmine, 19," reported US Weekly. USA Today reported that his divorce from Vanoy resulted in a settlement of more than $150 million which at the time would have made it the most expensive divorce in entertainment history.

An unidentified source told People.com about the wedding. "They've been planning for months and months," "He wanted to give Yvette everything she's ever wanted."
