It’s unclear exactly how many guests have been invited to attend the wedding of current Today co-host Karl Stefanovic and Jasmine Yarbrough. Some reports say up to 200 people were on the guest list which has dwindled down to around 50. Who will actually turn up?
James Packer pulled out of attending the wedding just days before the big event.
The billionaire is understood to have changed his plans after his mother Ros flew to Argentina to meet him and continue her 80th birthday celebrations in South America.
“Unfortunately he is not able to make the wedding due to this being such a special opportunity to spend time with his mother on this auspicious birthday for her,” a source told The Daily Telegraph.

Stefanovic and Yarbrough met at a Sydney boat party, and started dating in December 2016.
They announced their engagement in February, four months after Stefanovic and his ex-wife Cassandra Thorburn’s divorce was finalised.
The pair had been married for 21 years.
Yarbrough is expected to wear a custom dress by Sydney-based designer Jess Andreatta, which could cost as much as $25,000.
Andreatta gave few clues as to the dress’ aesthetic, but hinted it would take into account the “location and overall vibe of the wedding”, The Daily Telegraph reported.
It has been reported that Stefanovic and Yarbrough completed the formalities of their marriage some time ago, and this will be a party for friends to celebrate their marriage.
