The two were married in front of family and friends after McKinnon fulfilled his promise to rise from his wheelchair on their wedding day.
The 22-year-old's promising rugby league career was cut short when he suffered a devastating spinal cord injury playing for the Newcastle Knights in March 2014.He was diagnosed a quadriplegic and proposed to Ms Power from his hospital bed just days after the devastating accident.
The couple's journey has been inspirational and harrowing.
Ms Power, 23, has shared progress of his rehabilitation and just weeks ago shared a video of McKinnon walking with the help of a frame and two medical staff.
"So proud of all the hard work Alex McKinnon puts into his rehab," she said.
McKinnon, now 25, said earlier this year he considered himself lucky.
"A lot of people with spinal cord injuries aren't improving three years down the track," he told Fox Sports.
Brisbane Broncos skipper Darius Boyd was McKinnon's best man, and his wife Kayla posted a video of their daughter Willow Fox Sports for her role as flower girl.
