Nov. 30 (UPI) — Sen. Cory Booker<\/a> married his fiancee, Alexis Lewis, on Sunday in two ceremonies — one in his hometown of Newark, N.J., and one in hers, Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The newlyweds announced their nuptials in a joint statement<\/a> on Instagram that included photos from the ceremonies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Overflowing with gratitude,” the statement said. “We said ‘I do’ in two places that shaped us — Cory’s beloved Newark and Alexis’ hometown of Washington, D.C. — first at the courthouse, then with our families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Hearts full and so grateful,” the pair said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cory, 59, was the mayor of Newark from 2006 to 2013. He was then elected to the U.S. Senate for the state of New Jersey, a seat he has held since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He announced his engagement to Lewis in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the post to Facebook<\/a>, he said Lewis “transformed me, helping me to ground and center my inner life, and discover the joys of building a nurturing home with someone you love.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
