According to People, WNBA player Megan Gustafson and LNB Elite player David DiLeo have tied the knot. They did so during a Bridgerton-inspired ceremony at the Bella Salla venue. Many friends and family members attended, as did their dog, Pancake Rose Gustafson.
This ceremony marked the second in two days for the 29-year-olds. One day before the big event at Bella Salla, they held a private Catholic ceremony for the immediate family members.
"We are most excited about just doing life with each other," the couple told People. "Normal, everyday things as a couple, building a family and loving each other through every step of the way.
"As athletes, we travel and have been long-distance quite a bit. And so we are looking forward to being with each other in person much more in our future, supporting one another through the rest of our careers and beyond."
