MrBeast marries girlfriend and content creator Thea Booysen: ‘It was the best day of my life’

Guests at the wedding week enjoyed resort activities such as snorkelling, feeding the kangaroos which live on the island, and kitesurfing, before Mr and MrsBeast said “I do” at a ceremony officiated by a family friend who is also an ordained minister.

For the special occasion, Donaldson wore a Ralph Lauren tuxedo, while Booysen donned a custom dress created by Nicole + Felicia Couture.

After the ceremony, they celebrated at a reception, where they had their first dance to the soundtrack of Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ tune Die With A Smile.

The new husband and wife, and their wedding guests, also enjoyed a feast of food including sushi, fish and wagyu beef, followed by a carrot wedding cake.

Celebrity event planner Marcy Blum was responsible for organising the week of festivities, which Booysen told People was just a “formality” in her mind.

She said: “It sounds silly, but this is really just a formality. Ever since we started dating, we’ve been doing it with the goal of marriage.

“The difference is now the world knows we’re married, but we’ll still come home to our house and dogs and cats, and then we’re off to our next adventure!”

Of her new husband, Booysen added: “Jimmy really went out of his way to make all the guests super comfortable and feel included, and got to know my extended family, and it was all so incredibly special.

“It just made me love him all the more.”

Donaldson and Booysen first met back in 2022. MrBeast was visiting Booysen’s home country in South Africa and was out with a mutual friend, who invited Booysen to join them.

They “vibed instantly” and started a long-distance relationship after exchanging messages on X (formerly known as Twitter) a month later, before making their first public appearance at the Kids’ Choice Awards in April 2022.

Donaldson proposed on Christmas Day 2024.

The couple are hoping to mark their anniversary with a week of celebrations every year, as Booysen said: “We work a lot and don’t get to be around all our friends and family, so to have everyone in one place was really special.

“We decided we want to start doing something like this every year, where we put aside a week to have our friends and family join us to spend time together, and all the guests said the same thing.”
