Though everyone expected Beyonce and Jay Z to mark their big day extravagantly and share it with a glossy magazine deal, the duo decided to tie the knot in secret instead, keeping their precious wedding day to themselves.

On April 4th 2008, the pair were said to have quietly picked up marriage licenses in Scarsdale, New York, and organized a classy, but low profile wedding attended by only 40 guests. At the time, the pair had been dating for six years, and they had made no mention of a planned wedding.

Even when Jay Z was congratulated on the news after the event had taken place, he replied “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
