[Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Jae-hee] Jennifer Gates (25), the eldest daughter of Microsoft (MS) founder Bill Gates and his ex-wife Melinda French Gates, held her wedding ceremony on the 16th (local time).

According to the New York Post, Jennifer Gates held a grand wedding with groom Nayel Nassar (30) at a horse ranch in Westchester County, New York, USA.

Among the hundreds of guests who came to celebrate the wedding was Georgina Bloomberg, daughter of former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and captain of the equestrian team 'New York Empire.'

The horse ranch where the wedding took place is owned by Jennifer and is reported to be worth $16 million (about 18.9 billion KRW), according to the newspaper.

The wedding was held in a recently constructed building on the ranch, a circular botanical garden-style building with a roof and walls entirely covered with glass windows.

At the reception after the wedding, the popular British rock band Coldplay and folk singer Harry Hudson performed.
