Yesterday, Saturday, Tiffany Trump married the billionaire of Lebanese origin, Michael Boulos, in Palm Beach, Florida.
Tiffany, 29, is the daughter of former US President Donald Trump and actress Marla Maples, who were married from 1993 to 1999, and the half-sister to Ivanka, Don Jr, Eric, and Barron Trump.
Tiffany married Boulos, 25, at the Trump family's Mar-a-Lago resort, right after Tropical Storm Nicole passed through Florida, and three days before Donald Trump announced his candidacy for the 2024 presidential election.
"We are focused on this sacred union and welcoming beloved friends and family, not on politics," Marla Maples tells PEOPLE, adding that the family chose the venue because "this was Tiffany's childhood home and where she was brought into the world."
Tiffany chose her wedding dress as a nod to Boulos' heritage. "It's a Lebanese American wedding, so we were so happy to have Elie Saab create the magic," says Maples, who also wore an Elie Saab gown for her mother-of-the-bride look.
The couple's cake was modeled after Donald and Maples' custom, 7-foot-tall Sylvia Weinstock wedding cake.
Although Donald was reportedly in a bad mood after the midterm elections — "he has been upset and ranting like a raging bull for the past couple of days," according to a political source.
Maples said they tapped him for traditional fatherly duties with the wedding festivities, including walking his daughter down the aisle and partaking in a father-daughter dance.
Tiffany's closest friends from childhood were chosen as bridesmaids. Ivanka helped prepare for the big day, joining Tiffany's bridal party and offering "total support," according to a source involved with the wedding.
"Marla and Tiffany have talked about this day for a very long time," says the source. "She is so proud of her daughter and feels she chose the right man."
