Beyoncé and Jay-Z just picked up their marriage license Tuesday - and they didn't wait very long to put it to use.
Although there is no official confirmation that the two have already wed, People is reporting that there was a private ceremony on Friday.
"It happened earlier this evening. Jay wanted it to be a really private affair – close friends and family," a source said.
After the ceremony, family and friends headed to Jay-Z's Tribeca apartment for a lavish party with DJ Cassidy hired to spin.
"Cassidy mentioned a week ago that he was really excited for the Jay Z and Beyoncé's wedding party to happen," the source added.
The party was held in a white tent with 50,000 to 60,00 orchids, according to People. Guests included Beyoncé's parents, her sister Solange, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams of Destiny's Child, and friend of the couple Gwyneth Paltrow.
