Melinda Gates and her bride-to-be daughter Jennifer arrived at Manhattan’s Plaza Hotel in style Wednesday ahead of Jennifer’s extravagant wedding, exclusive photos show.
Jennifer Gates, 25 — who will tie the knot with fellow equestrian Nayel Nassar, 30, on her bucolic horse farm in Westchester County on Saturday — wore a lacy, all-white dress with a matching purse and long red locks as she rolled up to the hotel.
Melinda Gates, the 57-year-old billionaire ex-wife of Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, rocked a pink dress and wrap with heels as the Gates gals arrived with a large security detail.
Nassar was spotted sporting a more casual look with jeans and sneakers as he arrived at the posh hotel in an SUV on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Jennifer’s father, Bill, was spotted over the weekend in Indian Wells, California, watching the BNP Paribas Open tennis tournament.

Images of the Microsoft founder taken Sunday show him sitting next to a gray-haired woman believed to be his longtime paramour Ann Winblad — the woman he dated before settling down with Melinda and with whom he took getaways each year. His sister Kristi Gates was also in attendance at the tennis tournament.
Staff for the Gates family have been working to build massive, raised pavilions with floor-to-ceiling glass windows for the wedding on Jennifer Gates’ 124-acre, $16 million North Salem farm.
