With most players wrapping up their club football seasons in recent weeks, players have been taking advantage of the brief break before their next national fixtures and their return to training.
Code Sports reports Gorry met Markstedt while playing football in Sweden in 2022.
Photos shared on Instagram showed the adorable couple standing at the top of an aisle in white gowns.
Gorry stole the show in a daring two-piece ensemble while Markstedt sported a more traditional look.
The pair celebrated their big moment in front of an intimate crowd, photos show.
The couple have also shared snaps of their post-nuptials photo shoot with Gorry showing off her athlete's physique in a plunging, revealing outfit.
The shoreline shoot also showed the loved-up couple having a smooch.
As reported by Code Sports, Gorry is the second Matildas' player to marry this week with Ellie Carpenter marrying Danielle van de Donk last weekend at an elaborate celebration in France.
The couple, who went with public with their relationship in 2023, announced their engagement in January 2024.
Carpenter, 25, took personal leave from the last Matildas window to put the finishing touches on the wedding.
Matildas teammate Teagan Micah was part of the wedding party - making a quick trip to France after helping the Matildas beat Argentina earlier this month.
Carpenter took to Instagram on Wednesday night to share two photos of the happy couple with the caption 'I choose you. I always choose you.'
Both wore traditional white gowns. Carpenter donned a veil while van de Donk's dress had a stunning lace front.

Emily van Egmond and her partner Kat Thompson married in December last year.
Gorry missed the last Matildas window to prepare for the wedding but is understood to be available for selection for the upcoming window in Perth.
The Matildas are next in action on June 26 when they face off with Slovenia in a two-match series on home soil.
The Tillies also have a two-match series with Panama, beginning July 5.

Your cooking looks disgusting. Please, never stop posting it on Instagram
To the untrained eye, the plate was a mess of slop. On closer inspection, it must've been food of some description. Potatoes, maybe? Peas too. There was definitely a meat element, but it had been cooked for so long that it didn't matter what it was, or at least what it had once been. A thin sauce, presumably gravy, pooled in the middle of the plate. Remarkably, everything on the dish appeared a different shade of grey. A photo was taken, slightly out of focus, and posted online, accompanied by a simple caption: Cheeky Sunday roast. The person responsible for this situation was someone I barely knew, a friend of a friend of a friend, added to my Instagram account after a chance meeting years ago. We maintain almost no online relationship, but his cooking exploits are the highlight of my week. Every Sunday, without fail, he tackles something refreshingly regular – spaghetti bolognese, homemade tacos, a particularly raw-looking baked salmon – and he painstakingly documents the process. The results are unspectacular and occasionally alarming, but that's beside the point. In a world ruined by social media pressure, where everyone must always put their best foot forward, here is an average man unafraid to celebrate an average coq au vin. The glorification of everyday meals has long been stitched into the Australian national identity. We are the country of laid-back larrikins, a melting pot of cultures who refuse to take themselves (or their food) too seriously. That's why we laughed along in shared acknowledgment when Dale Kerrigan's mind was blown by his wife's rissoles in The Castle ('Yeah, but it's what you do with them!') and it's why we decided that the only fitting symbol for our democracy was a Coles sausage, covered in tomato sauce, served on white bread. Sure, we have a thriving food scene, complete with talented chefs serving world-class cuisine, but that represents the best of us, not the rest of us. At first, the rise of social media supercharged our ability to embrace our ordinariness. Twitter feeds like Rate My Plate, created in 2013, and the much-loved Instagram page Cook Suck (created by the late, great Darrell Beveridge in 2011) encouraged users to submit their horrific-looking home cooking for our collective enjoyment. The aim wasn't to shame (most of the time) but rather to celebrate how mediocre we can all be and how bad something might look, even if it tastes good. Then the inevitable happened: social media became less about slices of real life and more about curation and competition. Amateur home cooks became obsessed with viral recipes, abandoning their sloppy homemade pizzas (featuring packet cheese!) in favour of endless recreations of Alison Roman's caramelised shallot pasta or insane TikTok trends.

Headley Grange continues winning ways in Civic Stakes
Don't miss out on the headlines from Horse Racing. Followed categories will be added to My News. Headley Grange, racing's 'Mr Reliable', has surged through his grades this season and is now a stakes winner after he scored at Royal Randwick on Saturday. Trainer Joe Pride's talented sprinter has forgotten how to run anything but at his very best as he claimed the Listed $200,000 Civic Stakes (1400m). In a nine-race streak that began almost 12 months ago, Headley Grange has not missed a top two finish, winning five times. • PUNT LIKE A PRO: Become a Racenet iQ member and get expert tips – with fully transparent return on investment statistics – from Racenet's team of professional punters at our Pro Tips section. SUBSCRIBE NOW! 'It's crazy,'' Pride said when asked to comment on Headley Grange's remarkable consistency. 'He was good again, it was nice to see him step up that higher grade today. 'It was a tough win and that's never easy to do in a high pressure race with plenty of opposition. 'But he's a quality horse and he has come through the grades really well.'' Headley Grange, confidently baked into $2.45 favouritism, gave Jason Collett the third leg of a winning treble when he comfortably held off Welwal ($26) to win by a half length with Astero ($51) three-quarters of a length away third. The Bjorn Baker-trained Raikkonen ($5) settled outside Headley Grange early but then lost his position when stablemate Iknowastar came across in front of him. Raikkonen then ended up on the rail behind Headley Grange but when the winner eased away from the inside to make his finishing run, Baker's sprinter stayed close to the inside and rallied late to finish an unlucky fourth. But Headley Grange was a deserving winner - and he's not finished yet. Pride revealed plans to set Headley Grange for the South Grafton Cup (1600m) on July 13. The South Grafton Cup is one of a series of races where the winner is eligible to gain a start in the $3 million The Big Dance (1600m) at Royal Randwick on the first Tuesday in November. • It's A Knockout stuns rivals with dominant victory 'He's come back particularly well this preparation and we will go to the South Grafton Cup next,'' Pride said. 'We will try and qualify him for one of the Dances.'' Headley Grange has now scored successive wins to start his winter campaign after a brilliant first-up effort over 1300m at Royal Randwick two weeks ago. 'I don't think he was quite as sharp today as he was off that hot tempo the other day,'' Pride said. 'Maybe just second up he was a little bit vulnerable today but I would say he will bounce out of this win. 'I don't know if his best trip is 1400m or a mile (1600) yet. We want it to be a mile as there are not as many races around for 1400m races.'' Collett, who completed his treble on Headley Grange after his earlier wins on Callistemon and Lulumon, wasn't legged into the saddle on the Pride sprinter until the Civic Stakes field came out onto the track. Pride, who trained a double in successive races when Accredited won the closer, had made application to Racing NSW stewards to have Headley Grange walked out riderless from the Theatre of the Horse to the course proper. 'At the end of last preparation and again last start, when the jockey mounted Headley Grange he started to suck back and play up a bit in the yard,'' Collett explained. • Brave One's wide run no obstacle in Randwick triumph 'Joe asked the stewards if he could have me legged on last and be last onto the track and that way he is always moving forward and not in that environment. It worked as he was able to stay relaxed.'' The Civic Stakes proved an easy watch for Headley Grange backers as Collett gave the ever-consistent sprinter the smoothest of rides. 'The tempo was solid through the middle section and I had a horse travelling 'lovely' when the opportunity arose pretty early in the straight to pop off,'' Collett said. 'I did although it was a long way from home, especially at that tempo, but he just found another gear. 'When they came to him at the 150 (metres) he went again so that's a really good sign.'' Collett agreed with Pride's assertion that although Headley Grange's win wasn't as dynamic as his first-up effort, the rising five-year-old gelding showed there are better wins in store after he improved his race record to eight wins from 18 starts and nearly $600,000 prizemoney. 'The tempo of that race was different to last start,'' Collett said. 'It was genuinely run but Headley Grange has quickened off it and then he's had to tough it out. 'Both starts he has done it either way. Last start, a turn of foot and today he has had to show he was tough under pressure. They're great attributes to have – he's a really nice horse.''
