Australian boxer Tim Tszyu and his longtime partner Alexandra Constantine tied the knot in an intimate wedding ceremony in Sydney on Sunday afternoon.
The couple, who have been together for eight years, sealed their wedding vows in Sydney’s east in front of 120 guests.
Tszyu and his brother Nikita were dressed in stylish black Armani suits, while Alexandra wore a stunning designer dress by Steve Khalil.
Tszyu’s Hall of Famer father, Kostya, attended the ceremony wearing a baby blue suit.
A convoy of luxury cars drove from the boxer’s home in Caringbah to the wedding ceremony.

“I’m getting married,” he told George Rose.
“Boxing can’t compete with my wife,” he said. “I love her dearly and that is my number one priority right now.
‘I have always put boxing as number one, all my life, boxing, boxing, boxing.
“You come back and think, you know what, family is actually number one.”
The pair met at a boxing class in Rockdale 2016, and it was love at first sight for Tszyu.
The fighter, who normally refuses to hold the pads for anyone else, was beaten. It was her smile that did it, he said.
When the class was over, the pair started talking and the two have been inseparable ever since.
Constantine, who speaks fluent English, French and Macedonian, has been ringside at most of Tszyu’s professional fights.

She told the press last week that getting married was less stressful than one of her husband’s fights.
“In terms of atmosphere and nerves, a wedding is a walk in the park compared to a fight,” Alexandra said News Corp.
‘Just give me a wedding. We actually planned it in a very short time – about six weeks, which is unheard of.
‘Tim’s weight loss usually takes longer than six weeks, so we are doing well.
‘We have about 120 guests and we keep it small and nice.
‘We also managed to secure a very special location for our shoot, which has never been done before, but you’ll have to wait to find out.’
