The guest list of roughly 190 people included Philadelphia Eagles All-Pro Saquon Barkley, Cleveland Cavaliers All-Star Donovan Mitchell with his new fiancée Coco Jones, singer Jack Harlow, and she even brought together Houston Rockets superstar Kevin Durant and former Golden State Warriors teammate Draymond Green where the two took epic photo after their beef.

While the guest list was A-list, who was the man of the hour himself?

It’s been revealed his name is Shane Fowler and the two met when he was at Harvard Law School. His proposal was an elaborate scavenger hunt across NYC. GQ has more exclusive details.

The wedding was a no-phone event — hence the lack of social media pictures that came out of it.

Rooks and Fowler jetted off to Greece after for their honeymoon. Congrats to the happy couple.
