Wedding bells were ringing for Giannis Antetokounmpo over the weekend, as the Bucks superstar married longtime love Mariah Riddlesprigger in his native Greece, according to reports.

Joined by 200 of their closest confidants — reportedly including LeBron James — the couple became husband and wife at the Costa Navarino resort, Greek outlet Proto Thema reported, in what was described as a “Greek Orthodox and Catholic hybrid ceremony,” per Sportskeeda.

The festivities began Friday with a welcome bash that boasted a “strictly white” dress code, per Proto Thema, followed by a Nigerian-inspired affair on Saturday, a nod to Antetokounmpo’s heritage.

The celebrations concluded with the wedding ceremony on day three of the gathering.

Speculation around the big day began swirling last week when members of Antetokounmpo’s and Riddlesprigger’s inner circle shared social media posts from Greece.

Hailee Lopez, the wife of Milwaukee center Brook Lopez, posted an Instagram snap from Mykonos with Riddlesprigger.

“Celebrating you is easy,” she wrote on Aug. 28.

A separate post shared by Lopez features Riddlesprigger wearing a white mini dress and a veil in another.

Bucks star Khris Middleton and Antetokounmpo’s former teammate, Jrue Holiday, were also among those invited to the offseason affair, according to Euro Hoops.

Together since 2014, Antetokounmpo and Riddlesprigger are parents to three children: sons Liam, 4, and Maverick, 3, and 11-month-old daughter Eva.

The couple confirmed their engagement to People last fall.

He and the Bucks finished the 2023-24 regular-season campaign at 49-33.

Antetokounmpo did not play in Milwaukee’s first-round playoff series against Indiana as he dealt with a calf strain.

The Pacers defeated the Bucks in six games and reached the Eastern Conference final before losing to the eventual-champion Celtics in a four-game sweep.

The Bucks open the season on the road against the Sixers in Philadelphia on Oct. 23.
