Blaxell married Carolyn Penfold at a lavish ceremony at Vaucluse yacht club, and the couple have already produced a remarkable three sons.
It is believed a condition of the wedding was Carolyn vowing to support Michael's footballing obsessions, while he reciprocated with a promise to (occasionally) walk the dog.
Thankfully, Blaxell resisted the temptation to dress in his Lotto cycling jersey, instead donning what fashion experts have termed "a unique creation suited to this unique individual."
While Team Fyfe captain Eddy Blaxell was in attendance as one of three "goonsmen," there was no question who was the captain on the day.
Carolyn was more approriately dressed in a white dress which "could pass, at a pinch, as a wedding dress."
In a longwinded and corny speech, Carolyn quashed suggestions that the dress was the reason behind the marriage: "I would love to say that we're getting married because I found this beautiful dress, but the truth is that we love each other, and that's why we're getting married."
Without further ado, here are the photos you've all been waiting for (click to enlarge):
