Michael Jordan‘s second wedding was an occasion to behold. The entire experience was magical from the lights, sounds, and atmosphere. However, his tying the knot with Yvette Prieto became doubly special in various ways. Not least was an awesome present for the newly married couple from some of the people closest to them.

With the help of Upper Deck, whom the Chicago Bulls legend had a working relationship with, his friends would arrange a meaningful gift for the pair, who ostensibly, have everything, from fame to luxury, that one can hope for.

A huge picture of the two with a black outline became the canvas for 16 of their close friends to sign and give special notes to. Among the group were some legendary names. These included: Ahmad Rashad, Brandi Chastain, Brett Hull, Chris Chelios, Dwight Freeney, Flex Alexander, Julius Erving, Ken Griffey Jr., Mario Lemieux, Richard Dent, Ron Harper, Salli Richardson, Toni Kukoc, Vince Coleman, Wayne Gretzky, and Winn McMurry.

With the likes of Usher and Robin Thicke performing live, the guests had to up their gifting game as well. Thankfully, this group was more than able to pull off the impossible. However, they weren’t the only ones aiming for the skies.

The marketing manager of the trading card company, Chris Carlin, would reveal their efforts to make this dream a reality. As he would reveal to Yahoo.com, making the day special for their longtime partner was of utmost importance to the team.

How did the gift for Michael Jordan and Yvette Prieto come about?

Carlin made sure to point out how important it was for them to deliver a gift that was both meaningful and unique to the former owner of the Charlotte Hornets. “Upper Deck has enjoyed a fantastic relationship with Michael Jordan over the years. We wanted to create something that would be meaningful not only to Michael, but to his new wife Yvette as well. Over the past few weeks, we have worked to collect a variety of autographs from sports legends and personalities who are close with both Michael and Yvette.”

“This unique collectible is just a small way of saying thank you to MJ for his friendship over the years and a way to wish both he and Yvette the best as they start a new life together.” Further, Chris would reveal how this was the first such item to cover both of them.
