Cory Booker Weds Investment Exec Alexis Lewis

Big news for Senator Cory Booker! He’s officially a married man. The U.S. Senator recently tied the knot with his fiancée, investment executive Alexis Lewis, in a private ceremony held in Washington, D.C. This intimate celebration comes just months after the couple announced their engagement, marking a beautiful new chapter for both.

An Interfaith Union in the Capital

The wedding took place on November 29th, described as a small yet elegant affair. What made the ceremony particularly special was its interfaith nature. Alexis Lewis, who is Jewish, and Cory Booker, a practicing Christian, were blessed by both a pastor and a rabbi. This beautiful blend of traditions honored both of their backgrounds.

Keeping the event private, only close family members were in attendance. This decision allowed the couple to celebrate their union away from the usual D.C. spotlight, focusing on their personal commitment. Prior to the D.C. ceremony, they had already made their union legal at the U.S. District Court in Newark, a city with significant ties to Booker’s political career.

A Whirlwind Romance Culminating in Marriage

The couple shared their joy on social media, captioning their post with “Overflowing with gratitude.” They added, “We said, ‘I do’ in two places that shaped us—Cory’s beloved Newark and Alexis’s hometown of Washington, D.C.—first at the courthouse, then with our families. Hearts full and so grateful.” This sentiment perfectly captures the significance of their journey.

Their love story began in May 2024 when they were introduced by a mutual friend. Alexis, who was based in Los Angeles at the time, traveled to D.C. for their blind date and the connection was immediate. Their romance quickly blossomed, leading them to move in together and eventually to an engagement in Hawaii this past August. The announcement of their intention to marry followed shortly after.

A New Chapter for the Senator

Alexis Lewis, a native of D.C., has a background in the political sector, having worked with former L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti. She has since relocated to the East Coast to be with her husband. For Senator Booker, 56, this marks his first marriage, ending his status as one of U.S. politics’ most eligible bachelors. At 38, Alexis will now stand by his side as he continues his political career.

While Booker, a former presidential candidate, has publicly considered a run in 2028, his immediate focus remains on his re-election campaign for the Senate next year. With this new personal milestone, it’s an exciting time for the Senator and his new wife.
