Michael Jordan Wedding Tent The Largest In History! Yvette Prieto - Michael Jordan Marriage Details - 2,200 Guests!

The Michael Jordan wedding tent is the largest in history.  Michael Jordan and Yvette Prieto got married on Saturday. Prieto, a former model, got engaged to basketball superstar and icon Michael Jordan in December 2011. The two have been together for five years.

The wedding tent in the Michael Jordan-Yvette Prieto wedding in Palm Beach, Fla. was the biggest in history, and bigger than their home!

About 500 people arrived by tour buses for a service in an Episcopal church called Bethesda-by-the Sea. It's the same church where, in 2005, where Donald Trump was married to Melania. An additional 1,500 people joined Jordan and Prieto for reception at the Bears Club.

The Bears Club is a golf course community in Jupiter, Fla., where Jordan recently built a 38,000-square-foot home. It was designed by the noted Jack Nicklaus. And somehow, all 2000 guests fit in because of the size of the huge wedding tent.

JeffRealty.com had details about the production, saying "Michael Jordan's Wedding Tent is 40,000 sq ft, 5000 sq ft larger than his 35,000 sq ft home in the elegant and classy Bears Club in Jupiter, Fl. As you can see from the aerial, Jack Nicklaus has graciously allowed Jordan to place the largest tent in wedding history on the driving range of his renowned golf course in order to house the only 2,200 invited guests!"

The website goes on to detail the sound system and other elements, saying "The sound system for the affair arrived in four semi-trailers and the band spent the entire day Friday rehearsing for the BIG EVENT. Golfers had a great time on the course, with a backdrop of music to play to.

"So, to recap, Michael Jordan's wedding reception occurred in a temporary tent larger than his own house, complete with bathrooms big enough to host a separate large wedding and a dance floor with its own lighting effects system. What an intimate affair!"

We wouldn't exactly call it an "intimate affair", but it does sound colossally elaborate.
