The perky blonde, 64, was seen in a strapless Marchesa gown which she noted ‘had pockets’ as she called herself the ‘mother of the bride.’

Couric beamed in the princess style gown which was tight around her chest and hips then had a flowing ballgown style bottom.
‘(Mother of the bride) baby,’ she wrote on one photo.
And the TV personality thanked the designer, Georgina Chapman, who used to be wed to disgraced Harvey Weinstein.
She also gushed over her child: ‘My baby… Ellie was a breathtakingly beautiful bride. Mark was a dashing and beaming groom. I’m still walking on air even though I can barely move. I’m so happy I could cry but there are no tears left. Wait! I’m crying again. Tears of joy.’

Earlier Katie admitted she was ‘going to be insufferable for the next few days because I will be sharing wedding photos and videos like a crazy person.’
The journalist added: ‘This is the ceremony. It was on the mountaintop of #cedarlakesestate in Port Jervis, New York. Ellie went to @campfernwood in Poland, Maine and wanted a camp like setting. It was perfect. The weather was perfect. (Thank you Jay.❤️)
‘Ellie was a breathtakingly beautiful bride. Mark was a dashing and beaming groom. Carrie was the maid of honor and sang “Songbird” like a well, songbird. Mark’s brother Dave was the handsome best man and his sister Christine’s adorable children, Auggie and Merritt, were the ring bearer and flower girl, respectively.’
She said the music was incredibly special.

‘I didn’t take many pictures because I wanted to be completely present and just take it all in. So now I’m looking for the best photos until we get the professional ones. It was such an incredible, moving, extraordinary weekend full of love and friendship and some serious competition during Field Day.
‘I can’t wait to share everything with you. I’m still walking on air even though I can barely move. I’m so happy I could cry but there are no tears left. Wait! I’m crying again. Tears of joy. More later on this Instagram station. ❤️.’

‘Baby you’re a firework. Happy wedding Ellie and Mark (heart emoji) (Of course more pics to come when I recover!),’ Katie captioned the snap on Monday.
The blissful newlyweds cuddled close as they took in the gorgeous display after finally exchanging vows following a two year long engagement.
Announcing her daughter’s engagement in February 2019, Katie revealed Ellie was proposed to with the same diamond ring her late father Jay Monahan had given her mother.
Katie and Jay wed in 1989 and had two daughters, Ellie and Caroline, who is now 25 years old. Jay was just 42 years old when he died of colon cancer in 1998.
Based on the photos posted on social media, the elegant affair looked like one to remember.

Katie paid tribute to her daughter on the day of her wedding with a lengthy yet heartwarming post which included photos of the bride as a young girl with her late father.
‘It seems like yesterday when Ellie was crawling up my body like a little gymnast and doing a back flip off my shoulders. When she wouldn’t take off her Belle dress—ever. When she got her wisdom teeth pulled and was so loopy she asked the dentist to lunch,’ she wrote.
‘When she would spin the volleyball before a serve. When she headed off to college where she met a wonderful guy named Mark. When she moved to LA for graduate school…and became a successful TV writer. And on and on.

‘It went by in a flash and today Ellie is getting married to her beloved Jersey boy. My heart is full of unbridled happiness for them both and for all of us who are coming to celebrate their love and life itself. Jay would be so proud. Here’s to love, here’s to joy, here’s to the future.’
Katie married John Molner on June 21, 2014, and she opened up about her new husband in a 2017 Time essay about what she has learned following Jay’s death.
‘I now have a new husband, a wonderful person I adore, who is warm and wise and so funny,’ she wrote.
‘He’s different from Jay, but I think Jay would approve. I think they would have been friends. His greatest gift has been allowing me to love them both.’
