The high school sweethearts got engaged last year in January.
Stock recently swapped her cosmetic nursing gig to become head nurse at Cottesloe’s new general practice, Soleil Health Medical Centre.
The couple will now enjoy their honeymoon on the Maldives.
“(The off season is) a nice time to relax a bit more and take time away from footy,” Stock recently told The West.
“But I see football as such a privilege that Andy’s in this career and it’s brought us so many opportunities and brought us to Perth, which I never would have expected. I’ve really learned to love the game over the last eight years.”
It’s the season of love for AFL players, with Gold Coast star Daniel Rioli kissing his bride Paris Lawrence late last month.
A highly emotional Rioli shared photos of his gorgeous wedding to Lawrence at an exclusive estate in Byron Bay.
The wedding was at the end of October but the AFL superstar and Lawrence, a well known DJ, dropped the stunning pics this week while on their honeymoon in Japan.
Rioli was overcome with emotion during the ceremony, wiping tears from his face as his stunning wife walked down the aisle.
It was an intimate affair with around 80 guests — including many (past and present) Richmond and Gold Coast stars at luxury estate Deux Belettes.
The Riolis are the most famous First Nations family in the AFL, with line of superstars that dates back generations.

Recently retired Willie Rioli was at the wedding as was current Tiger Maurice Rioli.
Richmond legend Dustin Martin was also there along with three-time premiership coach Damien Hardwick, plus Rioli’s former Tiger teammates Shaun Grigg and Jacob Hopper.
His teammates from Gold Coast included Mac Andrew, Ben Long, John Noble, Joel Jeffrey, Will Powell, Jy Farrar and the recently departed Sam Flanders.
Former Indigenous AFL stars Jarrod Harbrow and Xavier Clarke were also among the guests.
Earlier in October, Western Bulldogs captain Marcus Bontempelli and long-time partner Neila Brenning were also married.
The happy couple tied the knot at a luxury ranch in the Napa Valley in California on Thursday, just under 12 months after Bontempelli popped the question while on holiday in Italy.
Neila shared a snap of herself with Bontempelli in the background, while the couple’s Melbourne-based florist shared a series of photos from the occasion.
“Currently waiting to board my flight back to Melbourne and have had some time to process how incredible this week has been!” Andrea Sanchez wrote.
“I feel so grateful to have been given this opportunity. It was all so surreal and wonderful.
“Here are some in-between moments before, during and after setup for the beautiful wedding of Neila & Marcus.”
