Liverpool star Roberto Firmino tied the knot with long-term girlfriend Larissa Pereira on Tuesday in Maceio reports The Mirror Sport.
The couple, who have been together since 2013, married at a lavish ceremony in Maceió, the hometown of the Reds striker.
Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho was Firmino's best man with teammates Alberto Moreno, Allan Souza and Lucas Leiva among the guests.
The civil ceremony was held at sunset at the Café de La Music overlooking a lagoon in Alagoas, north east Brazil with guests staying in hotels and resorts near the venue.
Other famous players including Barcelona striker and Brazilian national squad team mate, Neymar with his actress girlfriend Bruna Marquezine and Real Madrid manager were said to have attended the wedding.
Firmino was accompanied to the altar by his mother, Mariana Cícera.
Days before the event Larissa posted a touching message to her future husband in which she wrote: "I chose you and would choose you a thousand times over.”
The couple who have two daughters, Valentina and Bella, held an intimate religious ceremony last weekend, as is custom in Brazil, with a few relatives and friends guests in a Catholic church located in Pinheiro a neighbourhood in Maceio.
The pair, who recorded their big day on social network, declined wedding gifts, saying they have more than enough.
On a site specially designed to buy presents for the bride and groom, they asked their guests to contribute financially to a medical appeal for Miguel Enrique, a two-year-old child from Santa Catarina who is suffering from Spinal muscular atrophy, a degenerative disease.
After the ceremony the newlyweds held an all-night party with entertainment from some of the biggest names in Brazil’s music industry including Wesley Safadão and Thiaguinho.
