As Karl Stefanovic and Jasmine Yarbrough celebrate their nuptials in Mexico with their A-list guests, the hot new couple shared new video footage of their day with fans.
Stefanovic’s Today Show colleagues Deborah Knight and Brenton Ragless aired the footage that they “sent” to them from their wedding bash that is said to have cost upwards of $1 million.
Knight introduced the footage, saying: “It was a special weekend for one of our Today Show members as well. Karl tieing the knot to his beautiful bride Jasmine in a ceremony in Mexico.
They sent us this video of their special day to show you this morning at home, lots of happy smiling faces amongst the action.”
Watch the video above.
The footage showed Yarbrough walking down with her father Bobby and Karl alongside his brother Peter Stefanovic and his wife Sylvia Jeffreys.
Knight and Ragless also stated that the first dance they danced to as a couple was to Van Morrison.
Ragless, who is widely tipped to replace Karl on Today, also said that Karl would be “back in the new year”.
But it was unclear if he meant on the Today Show or at Nine on TV in general.
“They asked us to thank you, all of you for your lovely messages and phone calls. They’re off on their honeymoon. Karl will be back in the new year when the Australian Open kicks in.”

KARL’S FIRST WORDS TO JASMINE
“Holy s--t, you’re hot.”
Those were the first words Karl Stefanovic said to his bride when he saw her in her wedding dress.
According to sources at the lavish ceremony, Jasmine Yarbrough sent her groom a secret note on the day of their wedding asking him to meet her at the chapel for a private moment before the guests arrived. Bucking the trend of not seeing the bride before the wedding, he agreed and they spent some time together before the craziness of the day.
HOW THE BIG DAY UNFOLDED
It was a moment of solitude before the celebrity wedding of the year.
The couple said their I Do’s surrounded by loved ones as Stefanovic’s sister Elise Pointon presided as celebrant on the steps of the Mexican chapel at their luxurious Cabo San Lucas resort.
Wearing a bespoke creation from up and coming designer Jess Andreatta, Yarbrough was walked up the aisle by her doting father.
Her sister, Jade, and Mara & Mine business partner Tamie Ingham were in the bridal party, along with five of Yarbrough’s friends from school.

On Stefanovic’s side was motor racing legend Mick Doohan, businessman Ben Tilley and his brothers Peter and Tom, and friends Steve Marshall and Alan Regina.
Stefanovic’s three children — River, 12, Ava, 13, and Jackson, 19 — were also at the chapel with the 200 guests.
Guests were given white painted maracas to shake in celebration at the kiss.
A giant silk-wrapped arch has been elevated above the resort’s private beach with a fairy light canopy.
Guests including Stefanovic’s Today Show colleagues Richard Wilkins and Sylvia Jeffreys will get to dine and dance under the giant structure.
Security has been stepped up for the event, with the Mexican army providing patrols around the five-star resort.
