Marvin Nicholson, a personal aide to the president, married Helen Pajcic in Jacksonville, Florida, on Saturday.
Nicholson also plans the president's trips and frequently plays golf with him, the Washington Post reported.
Additionally, Pajcic worked in the president's administration for a while and the couple worked on the 2008 campaign, the newspaper reported.
Obama wasn't the only big-time name included in the wedding: Secretary of State John Kerry was the officiant.
