The Olympic champion has married her fiancé, pastor Mark Lassey, in a beautiful ceremony at Sandleford Wines in Perth, surrounded by their loved ones.
A Dream Wedding Come True
Stephanie took to social media to share the happy news, along with stunning pictures from their special day. “Overflowing with love, joy, and the tangible presence of God
. It felt like heaven touched earth,” she gushed. The couple’s wedding day was truly everything they had hoped for and more. As they begin their new life together, Stephanie and Mark are on cloud nine.
