Quincy Jones' youngest daughter is officially a married woman—and in the process, she's become part of one of America's most high-profile families.

After nearly 14 years together, model Kenya Kinski-Jones and billionaire heir Will Peltz exchanged vows during a lavish wedding celebration at the Peltz family's Mount Kisco, New York, estate. Vogue UK was on hand for the ceremony, which not only united two influential dynasties but also made Nicola Peltz—Will’s sister, perhaps best known as the wife of Brooklyn Beckham, son of David Beckham and Victoria Adams Beckham—officially Kenya's sister-in-law, further linking the Jones, Peltz, and Beckham families.

The wedding was packed with personal touches that celebrated Kenya and Will's relationship while paying tribute to her father's extraordinary legacy. The couple married in the same backyard where Will had proposed, after first exchanging private vows before the larger ceremony.

Kenya carried a bouquet wrapped in one of Quincy Jones' ties, while a piece of his handwriting was embroidered into her custom Brandon Maxwell wedding gown. She also walked down the aisle to "You Put a Move On My Heart," one of the legendary producer's best-known collaborations, performed live by Magnus Ferrell.

"When I looked down the aisle and saw him, I couldn't contain my smile," Kenya said of seeing Will waiting at the altar. "I was coming home to the man who I've known and loved my entire adult life. I'll never forget how I felt looking into his eyes and holding his hands in mine under the chuppah."

Will shared a similarly emotional reflection, saying, "When she came out, everything faded away, and all I could see was her. The togetherness I felt is something I wish for everyone [to experience]."

The celebration also underscored how closely connected the two families have long been. Kenya and Will later learned that Quincy Jones and billionaire investor Nelson Peltz had been friends for roughly 40 years before the couple ever met. "There was somewhat of an invisible string," they said while reflecting on the unexpected connection.

Meanwhile, family members took on prominent roles throughout the ceremony, with Nelson Peltz walking Kenya down the aisle alongside her uncle Richard Jones, while Claudia Heffner Peltz escorted her son to the altar. Their black Labrador, Bandit, even stole a few moments of the spotlight during the ceremony.

Fashion also played a starring role throughout the weekend. Kenya collaborated with celebrity stylist Jason Rembert on her custom Brandon Maxwell gown before changing into a Rodarte dress and Air Jordans for the reception, while Will opted for a custom tuxedo featuring embroidered tributes to loved ones stitched into its lining.

Then came one final unforgettable twist. As dinner wrapped, the reception briefly shifted into sports mode when guests gathered around a television to watch the New York Knicks compete for the NBA championship. Will had arranged the last-minute setup so family and friends wouldn't miss the historic game, and once the final buzzer sounded, everyone headed straight back to the dance floor.
