Former Governor Andrew Cuomo and Kerry Kennedy’s daughter, Mariah Kennedy Cuomo, tied the knot with her longtime partner, Tellef Lundevall, on Saturday night, sources exclusively inform Page Six.

Lundevall gained some recognition during the COVID-19 pandemic when he moved into Cuomo’s mansion and was often mentioned as “the boyfriend” during the former New York governor’s daily briefings.

The Cuomo family gathered in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, a Kennedy family stronghold, where “nearly 400 Cuomos, Kennedys and their friends” gathered "at the Kennedy compound over the weekend to toast the happy couple,” according to a source.

“The weekend was absolutely gorgeous, not a single detail was left unattended,” the witness shares. “Mariah looked stunning. There was nothing but love from start to finish.”

Cuomo and Kennedy, who were married from 1990 to 2005 and share three daughters, “were visibly so proud and happy, beaming the entire time” according to sources.

The weekend included a “sailing race on Friday afternoon to kick off the festivities.”

Cuomo’s close friends, Billy Joel and his wife Alexis Roderick, whose wedding Cuomo officiated in 2015, “sailed into the Hyannis Harbor on his famed boat, the Alexa, to join the festivities,” sources reveal.

During the wedding, Cuomo, 66, and Mariah, 29, shared a father-daughter dance to Joel’s 1977 hit song “Just the Way You Are,” a source reports.

Guests enjoyed a menu featuring herb-roasted Chatham cod, filet mignon, and lemon-chive linguine.

Family members spotted at the wedding included matriarchs Matilda Cuomo and Ethel Kennedy, filmmakers Rory Kennedy and Maria Cuomo-Cole, Maria’s fashion designer husband Kenneth Cole, former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo and his wife Cristina Greeven Cuomo, and producer and activist Timothy Shriver.
