Cory Booker Marries Alexis Lewis in Two Ceremonies in Newark and Washington

A joint Instagram post highlighted Newark as his touchstone, with Washington as hers.

Overview

  • The couple legally wed on Nov. 24 at the U.S. District Court in Newark, with Judge Julien Xavier Neals officiating and their parents as witnesses.
  • They held a family-only interfaith ceremony in Washington on Nov. 29, where a rabbi and a pastor blessed them beneath a huppah at an undisclosed location.
  • The pair announced the news on Nov. 30 in a coordinated Instagram post, saying they were "overflowing with gratitude" after saying "I do" in two places that shaped them.
  • Booker, 56, and Lewis, 38, met on a blind date in May 2024, moved in together in April 2025, and got engaged on Aug. 24 in Kauai, Hawaii.
  • Lewis is a real-estate investment executive at Brasa Capital with prior service in the Los Angeles mayor’s office, and the couple lives in Newark’s Central Ward with a foster dog named Cooke.
