Trump throws luxurious MAGA wedding for his top aide Dan Scavino at Mar-a-Lago… as blushing bride stuns guests and Elon Musk arrives with his baby mama

Donald Trump is hosting an extravagant wedding for his aide Dan Scavino at his dazzling Florida estate – with MAGA bigwigs, from Marco Rubio to Elon Musk, in attendance. 

The White House deputy chief of staff is marrying Erin Elmore, the director of Art in Embassies at the U.S. Department of State, at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach.

Scavino proposed to Elmore in September 2025, sharing footage of himself dropping down on one knee – as his dashing bride-to-be looked elated and said yes. 

On Sunday, the top players in the Republican Party descended on Mar-a-Lago to celebrate the nuptials  – including Musk and Shivon Zilis – a high-level executive at Neuralink who birthed four of his children.

The pair, who have rarely been seen in public together, looked dashing as they arrived at the Florida estate for the nuptials – with Musk wearing a red cravat. 

The White House’s fierce press secretary Karoline Leavitt was in attendance – accompanied by her husband Nicholas Riccio. The pregnant mom-of-one kept her look simple with a classy black dress, with matching high heels.

The pair recently announced that they are expecting their second child later this year. 

Trumps’ Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem surprisingly walked into the celebration with Stephen Miller, the deputy White House chief of staff for policy. 

Noem, wearing an understated patterned dress with a fur jacket, has been at the forefront of criticism in recent weeks for the way ICE and Border Patrol agents have handled arrests in parts of the country, particularly in Minneapolis.

Despite the tense climate across the country, Noem and Miller – the architect of Trump’s deportation push- smiled as they entered the club alongside one another.  

Secretary of State Marco Rubio showed up to the wedding with his wife Jeanette, who wore an elegant cream overcoat for the winter wedding. 

Pam Bondi, Trump’s Attorney General, wore a chic red shirt and floral skirt combination as she arrived with her long term partner John Wakefield. 

She has also faced public and private criticism in recent weeks over the handling of the Epstein files. 

Trump reportedly backed Chief of Staff Susie Wiles’ assessment that Bondi ‘whiffed’ on the Epstein files, something Wiles told Vanity Fair in the magazine’s controversial cover story in December. 

Wiles too made an appearance at Mar-a-Lago on Sunday – wearing trousers, heels, and a chic jacket with fur trimmings.   

Brooke Rollins, Trump’s Secretary of Agriculture was also in attendance, holding arms with her husband Mark Rollins.

And members of Trump’s own family also descended on the estate to celebrate the big day, including new mom Tiffany Trump, the president’s second daughter.

She wore a floral dress as she arrived with her husband, Michael Boulos. 

Kai Trump, the president’s golf-obsessed Miami-based granddaughter, looked smart in a black overcoat paired with delicate diamond earrings as she stepped inside. She was accompanied by her mother, Vanessa Trump, who used to be married to Don Jr. 

Laura Trump – the president’s daughter-in-law – wore a tailored black suit and a tennis necklace as she showed up for the nuptials on Sunday. 

Two prominent women in Trump’s family were noticeably absent from the festivities – the president’s wife, Melania, and his first daughter, Ivanka.   

Melania celebrated big this weekend, with her self-titled documentary hitting the big screen on Friday. The First Lady already receiving box office praise for the endeavor. 

Mother-of-three Ivanka Kusher was also seemingly missing from the line up, with her husband, Jared Kushner, looking sharp as he arrived at the wedding on his own.

Donald Trump Jr., the president’s son, and Bettina Anderson were in attendance at the wedding on Sunday. 

Fox News power couple Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt were present at the wedding – with Earhardt styling her all-black outfit with an iconic Dior Lady Diana bag. 

Also in attendance was US Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff and his wife Lauren Rappoport, who smiled as they arrived at Mar-a-Lago.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and his wife Kristine, White House trade advisor Peter Navarro, and Secretary of Veterans Affairs Doug Collins and his wife, Lisa, made their way to Florida for the occasion.

Medicare and Medicaid Administrator Mehmet Oz and wife Lisa showed up to celebrate. 

The blushing bride prepared herself for the ceremony, taking photos with friends and family. She was accompanied with a young boy, who held up a ‘Trump Made This Happen’ hat.  

Trump throws parties at his Mar-a-Lago club frequently – with one of the most recent being a New Year’s Eve bash for his friends and family. 

Trump’s big bash included a performance from live artist Vanessa Horabuena, who painted an abstract portrait of Jesus Christ that was auctioned off for $2.75 million for charity. 

Some members of the president’s inner circle noticeably chose to skip the circus to opt for alternate, more low-key parties to welcome 2026.

And in October, Trump hosted a Great Gatsby-themed party at Mar-a-Lago, filled with glamorous women in roaring twenties outfits and even a burlesque dancer.

The lavish Halloween bash at his Palm Beach residence was officially named ‘A little party never killed nobody’, in reference to the Fergie song that made up part of the soundtrack of the 2013 cinematic adaptation of F Scott Fitzgerald’s 1925 novel.

In one image from the party, a burlesque showgirl posed in an enormous Martini glass, while footage showed dancers in flapper costumes entertaining guests with cabaret routines.

Gigantic gold and silver balloons decorated an outdoor pool while the exclusive line-up of attendees drank champagne and dined as 1920s music played.

It has not been confirmed how much guests paid for entry, but tickets for previous parties at the Mar-a-Lago have been $1,000 each.

Trump sat at a table with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, his wife Jeanette, as well as Judge Jeanine Pirro, and his son-in-law Michael Boulos, who is married to Tiffany Trump.

Trump’s eldest daughter, Ivanka, and her husband Jared Kushner were also in attendance.
