 Michael Jordan  set many records over the course of his NBA career, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the former basketball player scored another with his 2013 wedding to wife  Yvette Prieto . After the sports legend and model said, “I do” at Palm Beach’s Episcopal Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea, the couple hosted their reception at the Bears Club, founded by legendary golfer Jack Nicklaus. The party was held in a 40,000-square-foot tent. According to the HuffPost, the venue was the “largest tent in wedding history.”
