They were joined under the ‘chuppah,’ the traditional Jewish wedding canopy, by Tom’s son and two daughters as well as Jennifer’s children.

Rabbi David-Seth Kirshner, who officiated the ceremony, referred to the coupling as, “beshereth,” the Yiddish word for soulmate.

There, they enjoyed a candle-lit celebration, with champagne, caviar and a multi-course supper, followed by desserts and dancing. Tunes were supplied from the Elan Music band. Masterminds behind the wedding planning and design were Todd Events - the celebrity-favorite event planners behind the likes of Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton's wedding - to name by a few.

Guests present included George Stephanopoulos and his wife Ali Wentworth, Amy Robach, T. J. Holmes, Lara Spencer, Juju Chang, Corey Gamble, Donna Karen, Sara Gilbert and Al Michaels.

Jennifer is now on her honeymoon, and will be taking several days off GMA as a result. The popular star bid a temporary farewell to the show last week ahead of her wedding, and co-anchors Amy and T.J. gave her a wonderful send off.

As a special surprise, the pair surprised her live on the air with a cart full of Sugarfina's Sugar Lips candy specially made for her.
