Despite being rumoured to be Karl’s best man, James Packer pulled out of attending the wedding just days beforehand to attend his mother Roslyn’s birthday celebrations.

Shock jock Kyle Sandilands had also been invited but his girlfriend Imogen Anthony told Fairfax they weren’t able to go to the wedding because he’s been unwell.

Stefanovic’s former Today colleague Lisa Wilkinson has not been invited and his current co-host Georgie Gardner was given an invitation but won’t be attending due to a scheduling clash.

While the official event is still a couple of hours away, festivities have already been underway with welcome drinks and a rehearsal dinner being held at the resort in recent days.

Most of the guests were friends and family who had flown in a bit earlier for the wedding.

Speaking to The Sunday Telegraph on the eve of the much talked-about wedding, the future Mrs Stefanovic described her life with the TV host as “crazy, beautiful”.

“I am a very loyal person so choosing one person for life is a big thing for me,” Yarbrough said.

“It means having someone by your side while you navigate this crazy, beautiful and sometimes challenging thing called life.”
