Amar’e Stoudemire and Alexis Welch have tied the knot!

The New York Knicks baller and Welch jumped the broom in Miami on Saturday in a lavish ceremony at the Vizcaya Museum & Gardens. The pair were already legally married last December but wanted to host a formal ceremony to celebrate with friends and family.

The happy couple are the parents of four children and have been together since 2002. Stoudemire proposed to Welch last year in Paris by presenting his longtime lover with an enormous 8.5 carat diamond rock.

Celeb guests at the upscale affair are reported to have included Carmelo Anthony and his wife La La, as well as Timbaland and Swizz Beatz with wife Alicia Keys.

Congrats to the happy couple!
