Cory Booker Marries Alexis Lewis in Two Emotional Ceremonies Across N.J. and D.C.
U.S. Senator Cory Booker is no longer one of Washington’s most famous bachelors he’s officially a married man. Booker tied the knot with fiancée Alexis Lewis in two intimate wedding ceremonies held days apart in Newark, New Jersey, and Washington, D.C.
A Simple Newark Courthouse “I Do”
The first ceremony happened on November 24, 2025, at the federal courthouse in Newark. Only their parents attended the quiet civil wedding, a deeply symbolic location tied to Booker’s long career in New Jersey public service.
A Second, Interfaith Celebration in D.C.
Five days later, the couple hosted a second, heartfelt ceremony in Washington, D.C. This event honored both their backgrounds with a pastor and a rabbi jointly officiating under a Jewish chuppah. Close family gathered as the couple exchanged vows again in the city where their shared life will continue.
Who Is Alexis Lewis?
Lewis, 38, is a rising finance executive with degrees from NYU and Cornell. She works as a vice president at Brasa Capital Management and previously served in the Los Angeles Mayor’s Office. The pair reportedly met on a blind date in 2024 and quickly became inseparable.
A New Chapter for the Senator
Booker, 56, has long been known as one of the nation’s most eligible political figures. His marriage — just months after announcing their engagement — marks a personal milestone that many of his colleagues and supporters celebrated online.
With ceremonies in both cities that shaped them, Booker and Lewis described their wedding week in three words: “Hearts full, grateful.”
