Google co-founder Larry Page has married his girlfriend, Lucy Southworth, this weekend on a tiny private island in the Caribbean, The Times reported.

Page, 34, America's fifth-richest man with a fortune of GBP 9 B, was marrying Lucinda "Lucy" Southworth, 27, a student in biomedical informatics at Stanford University who already has a masters degree from Oxford.

The star-studded ceremony took place on Sir Richard Branson's exclusive Necker Island and media reports said all guests have been swore to secrecy.

The bride is on course to gain a doctorate at Stanford. Her groom dropped out of his PhD programme at the same Californian university to start Google.

One of Southworth's friends said in an internet posting: "They are really nuts about each other; they make google eyes to each other all the time." Denise Hale, a San Francisco socialite, said: "They are a very well-matched couple. She's stunning and bright, and he's very attractive and bright."

Al Gore, the former vice-president, had to decline his invitation because he is due in Norway tomorrow to collect his Nobel peace prize.

Bono, the U2 singer, was a guest and was expected to perform.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers also played at the reception.

Hillary Clinton was invited, but said she would not attend the wedding as initially reported.
