Tiffany Trump also documented the celebrations on Instagram, sharing photos of herself in breezy summer prints and dancing on the beach with her husband, Michael Boulos.
Meanwhile, Eric Trump and Lara Trump were also present for the wedding festivities. No pictures of the bride and the groom were posted.
Notably absent from the shared photos were Donald Trump and Melania Trump, who reportedly did not attend the private ceremony.
Ahead of the wedding weekend, President Trump addressed the situation publicly on social media, writing that although he wanted to attend his son’s wedding, government responsibilities required him to remain in Washington, D.C.
“While I very much wanted to be with my son, Don Jr., and the newest member of the Trump family, his soon-to-be wife, Bettina, circumstances pertaining to government, and my love for the United States of America, do not allow me to do so,” he wrote. “I feel it is important for me to remain in Washington, D.C., at the White House during this important period of time.” He concluded the message by congratulating the couple.

During a separate Oval Office event, Trump also commented on the wedding plans, saying, “He’d like me to go, but it’s going to be just a small, little private affair, and I’m going to try and make it.” He added, “This is not good timing for me. I have a thing called Iran and other things. That’s one I can’t win on.”
Trump also joked about the media attention surrounding his attendance, saying, “If I do attend, I get killed. If I don’t attend, I get killed by the fake news. Hopefully they’re going to have a great marriage.”
Don Jr. and Bettina reportedly first connected through Palm Beach’s prominent conservative social and political circles. The pair quietly began dating around mid-2024 before taking their relationship public.
In December 2025, Don Jr. officially announced his engagement to Anderson during a White House holiday event. The 39-year-old had her bridal shower in April. The couple later legally married in West Palm Beach, Florida, before celebrating with an intimate wedding ceremony in the Bahamas.
