Feb 02 2026

Alex Bruesewitz, a key figure in President Trump's media strategy, married former Miss Nevada Carolina Urrea at the Doral Miami Golf Course on Saturday. The event drew a notable crowd, blending political heavyweights with celebrity guests.

While President Trump was absent, he sent a heartfelt video message to the couple. “There is no one tougher, smarter, sharper or knows more about politics,” he remarked about Alex, adding, “From everything I hear, Alex, you got very, very lucky.” His well-wishes were met with cheers from the attendees.

The guest list read like a who's who of MAGA supporters. Boxing icon Mike Tyson mingled with rapper Nicki Minaj, while actress Amber Rose and NBA player Tristan Thompson also made appearances. Donald Trump Jr. and his fiancée Bettina Anderson were present, alongside White House staff members including press secretary Karoline Leavitt and communications director Steven Cheung.

Political figures such as FCC Chairman Brendan Carr and Republican National Committee Chairman Joe Gruters added to the event's significance. Senators Jim Banks and Bernie Moreno, along with Florida Representatives Bryon Donalds and Anna Paulina Luna, were also in attendance. Kari Lake expressed her excitement on social media, stating, “I have never been in a more MAGA room.”

Business moguls were not left out; Youngjin Chung, grandson of Samsung's founder, and Juul creator Riaz Valani were among the elite guests. The couple’s wedding was meticulously planned by Whitney Carillon Events, featuring an elegant display of white roses.

During their first dance, country star Warren Zeiders serenaded the couple. Carolina dazzled in a white lace bodice and satin skirt as Alex lifted her in a spin. The celebration included performances from various artists, including Sexyy Red.

Culinary delights featured beef tallow burgers from Steak ‘n’ Shake and an impressive seven-tier wedding cake. The festivities kicked off with a party at Mar-a-Lago before transitioning to Miami for the wedding.

Alex and Carolina's love story began in 2024 on the campaign trail when Alex invited Carolina's friends to meet Trump in Las Vegas. Their connection led to a viral TikTok moment and blossomed into a relationship that culminated in their engagement last June.

As the mastermind behind Trump's podcast strategy for the 2024 campaign, Alex has played a pivotal role in shaping the president's outreach to younger audiences through platforms like TikTok and Instagram. Carolina, a full-time model, previously placed third in the 2018 Miss USA pageant.

The wedding not only celebrated their union but also highlighted the intersection of politics and celebrity culture within the MAGA movement.
