(JTA) — Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg married a day after taking his company public
Zuckerman, 28, and longtime girlfriend Priscilla Chan, 27, announced their marriage Saturday by changing their Facebook statuses to "married" and posting a wedding photo. More than 280,000 people liked Zuckerberg’s status change, Reuters reported.
The couple, who met 10 years ago, were wed in a small backyard ceremony. Chan recently graduated from medical school; the guests thought they had come to a graduation party for her.
Facebook raised $16 billion in its initial public offering last Friday.
