“I don’t care if the the world was ending at this moment! Nothing could of kept me from my wife,” Griner captioned a photo from the day on Instagram. “I think I cried the whole day until I saw her walking down that isle. Then in a instant I was calm and full of love and all the tears turned into huge smiles and a joy that no one can explain unless you have found and married your soulmate. I love you so much my beautiful Wife.”
