Detriot Lions quarterback and former UGA star Matt Stafford married his longtime girlfriend over the weekend, according to multiple reports.

Stafford and Kelly Hall, a former UGA cheerleader, wed in a "lavish ceremony" Saturday night, surrounded by friends, family and Lions teammates, including Golden Tate and Joe Fauria, TMZ reports. Lions receiver and former Yellow Jacket Calvin Johnson was also in attendance, according to the Detroit Free Press.

The ceremony was held at The Foundry at Puritan Mill, on the westside, judging by photos posted online.

TMZ adds that each guest received a pair of Nike shoes and an airbrushed trucker hat.

Scenes from the event made their way online, often under the hashtag #fullystaffed4415; and the bride herself documented much of it. At least one part of the wedding included lots and lots of sparklers.

Stafford and Hall were engaged last April and returned to Sanford Stadium for their engagement photos.
