Brunette Betty, 30, is the daughter of Armenian politician Mikael Vardanyan and looked radiant in her ivory dress, shimmering tiara and long veil.
The loved up couple - who appear to have enjoyed a whirlwind romance having only been linked with each last summer - enjoyed a romantic boat journey through Venice on Monday.
And they even shared a kiss on the water taxi for the three snappers perched on the front of the boat to capture the moment.
Mkhitaryan marked the moment with a photo of himself and his bride posted to social media.
And, showing true warmth and affection, he wrote touchingly on the heartwarming snap: "Marry me and stay with me forever."
The newlyweds are yet to speak publicly about their romance after they got engaged last November.
WHIRLWIND ROMANCE
Mkhitaryan - who missed Arsenal's Europa League final defeat to Chelsea in Baku because of fears over his safety - is the third Gunner to get married so far this summer.
Ozil forgot to smile for the cameras as he married stunning Amine Gulse.
The German's glum expression mirrored what many Arsenal fans have seen this season as he's suffered a frustrating time of it on the pitch.
The 30-year-old married Gulse in the Turkish capital of Istanbul, and held their reception at the Four Seasons hotel.
Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his wife Emine were witnesses during the ceremony.
Ozil was slammed by German Chancellor Angela Merkel's chief of staff for inviting the controversial Erdogan along.
Helga Braun accepted the decision of Ozil and Gulse was of a "private" nature, but suggested the "role model" was setting a bad example.
Emirates defender Kolasinac got married in secret earlier this summer.
