PHOENIX — WNBA stars Brittney Griner and Glory Johnson were married Friday at a resort in Phoenix, reports E! News.

Johnston, who posted a wedding photo on Instagram Saturday, wore a strapless champagne wedding gown while Griner sported a tan suit and white tennis shoes.

The wedding comes just two weeks after the couple made headlines after an argument at their home in Goodyear, Ariz., led to a 911 call and arrests of both for assault and disorderly conduct.

On April 28, Griner accepted a plea deal to enter domestic violence counseling, after which the charges against her will be dismissed, reports USA Today. Johnson enrolled in counseling voluntarily.

The couple were engaged last August.
