Beyonce And Jay-Z Are Married

Apr 6, 2008 AT 07:48 am

Should I call her Mrs. Z? According to a source over at People Magazine - the answer is yes! Jay-Z wanted a small wedding amongst close family members and that is exactly how it happened.

"It happened earlier this evening. Jay wanted it to be a really private affair - “ close friends and family."

The reception followed suit - although it was said to be a "lavish party" where the family celebrated the union alongside... Gwyneth Paltrow? WHAT? You learn things everyday. That's her arriving in the white.

The ceremony was followed by a lavish party at the rapper's Tribeca apartment that drew BeyoncÃ©'s mother Tina Knowles, her father/manager Mathew, her sister Solange, her Destiny's Child mates Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, and the couple's friend Gwyneth Paltrow.

Crazy in Love...A few rumors I want to throw out there:

Both singers are said to have tattooed IV on their wedding fingers.
The couple is planning on celebrating on a much larger scale in France later next month.
No word on whether or not she will take Carter as her last name.

Seeing these images are a semi confirmation that something did go down. Although I wouldn't consider this the start of their wedding album, I do think that getting close family and friends together is a great sign that there is some truth to this despite rep confirmation. Best of luck to this very happy couple.UPDATE: Mary J Blige gave them a congratulation shout out during her concert. Something tells me this is the real deal.

But co-headliner Mary J. Blige on the "Heart of the City" tour couldn't maintain the same level of silence, shouting to the sold-out Greensboro audience: "Congratulations to my man, Jay-Z, and my girl B," before starting her set with "You're All I Need."

They should report right. Gwyneth was there with Chris Martin who has worked in Jay Z on records in the past. I doubt Gwyneth is a close chum of Jay Zs.

Why do they try to hide?

If they are married and it kind of sounds like they are despite the lack of a confirmation, then congrats to them. Everyone looks so unhappy like it could be a funeral they are going to and not a wedding.

I love that they got married! They make a wonderful couple. i doubt that she got married because she was preggers. They have been talking about marriage in the media for a while. As far as Gwen and Chris they are known as friends of B and Jay Z I seen several pics of them together. i am so happy for them and although i would love to see the wedding picks i would also like to respect their privacy congrats! loves it!
