Good Morning America host Robin Roberts has married her partner Amber Laign - with two of her former co-stars notably missing from the nuptials.

The newlyweds had an array of colleagues and celebrities join them for the bash including Al Roker, Erielle Reshef, Lara Spencer and Dr. Jen Ashton. Robin's co-star and meteorologist Sam Champion also joined the pair with his husband Rubem Robierb.
One very swanky guest came in the form of Robin and Amber's Tibetan Spaniel cross Papillon, who even had his very own suit and bow tie. An image shared to the pup's - named Lukas - Instagram account in his wedding attire was captioned: "My mommies are MARRIED! Married?.....yes.....married!!!!!"

Amy was married to actor Andrew Shue for 12 years and T.J. was married to attorney Marilee Fiebig for the same amount of time.
The couple were seen posing among a sea of flowers with Robin holding a wedding bouquet in her hands while Amber gazed at her lovingly. Both brides wore stunning traditional white gowns that had been custom made by designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka.
Amber opted for a scooped neckline on her dress, which featured a large train, Robin meanwhile had a high, beaded neckline and buttons down her spine. Both brides wore their hair in sleek up-dos to compliment their choice of attire.
As they entered their wedding reception at Farmington Gardens Elton John's Can You Feel The Love Tonight was played on a violin. Fresh from their big day Robin shared an Instagram post on Sunday morning showing off two photos of her and Amber.
