Around 50 people attended the nuptials, including Couric’s two adult daughters. “We wanted to keep the wedding just very low-key,” Couric told People. “This is not my first rodeo so I didn’t want to go too crazy and neither did John.”

The broadcasting legend’s first husband, Jay Monahan, died in 1998 from colon cancer.
