Silicon Valley's richest bachelor is getting married next month.
Google Inc. co-founder Larry Page, whose stake in the Internet search leader is worth about $20 billion (euro 13 billion), and Lucy Southworth are getting married in a ceremony scheduled for the weekend of Dec. 8, according to a report published on Tuesday in the San Francisco Chronicle.
Page, 34, is following in the footsteps of Google's other founder, Sergey Brin, who married Anne Wojcicki six months ago in an exclusive ceremony in the Caribbean. The location of Southworth's and Page's wedding was not disclosed.
After Brin's wedding, Google invested $3.9 million (euro2.6 million) in Wojcicki's biotechnology startup, 23andMe Inc.
The invitation list to Page's wedding is expected to include many of Google's current and former employees, as well San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom and billionaire Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin Group.
Former Vice President Al Gore, a senior adviser at Google, told the Chronicle he has been invited to the wedding but will not be able to make it because he will be picking up the Nobel Peace Prize at a ceremony in Oslo, Norway. He said he still hopes to make an appearance through video conferencing.
Southworth was a biomedical informatics doctoral student at Stanford University, where both Page and Brin were studying as graduate students before leaving to start Google in 1998. Page has been dating Southworth for more than a year.
