Facebook co-founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg marries his longtime girlfriend, Priscilla Chan, in an intimate backyard wedding with close family and friends last May 19, 2012. The nuptials were announced through Zuckerberg’s status update on the popular social networking website. The billionaire’s status change was accompanied by a photo of the beaming newlywed in their wedding attire. Soon after, more than a million “fans” liked Zuckerberg’s status.
The ever casual Zuckerberg wore a dark blue suit and tie while his bride wore a simple white sleeveless wedding dress with lace overlay designed by Claire Pettibone. The couple secretly planned their wedding for four months. As a result, guests were pleasantly surprised as they thought that they were there to celebrate the recent graduation of Priscilla from medical school.

The Facebook CEO designed a simple ruby wedding ring for his bride as guests ate food from a few of the couple’s favorite restaurants. For dessert, guests munched on mouse-shaped chocolate that the couple ate on their first date together more than nine years ago.
The couple met while studying in Harvard University where Zuckerberg started Facebook inside his dorm room before dropping out of the Ivy League School. Chan however, went on to finish medical school at the University of California in San Francisco. The couple shares a home together in Palo Alto with their adopted Hungarian sheepdog, Beast.
The wedding took place a day after Facebook’s initial public offering on the Nasdaq stock exchange. Zuckerberg’s shares amount to almost $20 billion as he retains major voting control over the company.
