Ana Ivanovic and Bastian Schweinsteiger tie the knot in Venice

Serbian tennis player Ana Ivanovic tied the knot with Manchester United footballer Bastian Schweinsteiger in Venice.

With family, friends and fellow sports celebrities present, the couple headed to the Venice City Hall, with the bride wearing a beautiful frilled gown.

Ana's halter neck gown was a traditional bridal white, simple yet chic and highlighted her svelte and lean frame to perfection.

The gown also had an elegant keyhole detail, and the tennis star added a pair of white satin heels, a silver bracelet and a watch to complete her ensemble.

Ana also carried a bouquet of cream coloured flowers and had on statement diamond stud earrings, while Bastian wore a smart dark suit sans tie, matching his wife's understated style.

The newly married couple then walked to the jetty amidst a crowd of fans and admirers, and took a boat ride to their reception.
