Sunrise host David ‘Kochie’ Koch looked every inch the proud father as he walked his daughter Georgie down the aisle at her wedding on Saturday.

Georgie tied the knot with long-time partner Alex Merkel, known affectionately to the Koch family as ‘the German’, in an outdoor ceremony in Regent’s Park, London.

Before the sunny nuptials, Kochie and wife Libby had spent two weeks getting to know Alex’s parents, Uwe and Gerlind, in England.

The two families had not met in person beforehand due to the Covid pandemic.

Georgie, Kochie’s youngest child and the last to marry, looked radiant on her special day in a strapless white gown with a dainty necklace, pearl earrings and tulle veil.

Her ‘something blue’ was a pair of blue heels.

The Channel Seven presenter, 66, said: ‘Great to have the entire family together. Even though it was our fourth [family] wedding of our youngest daughter Georgie, it was just as beautiful, fun and emotional as the other three.’

Kochie’s daughters Brie and Samantha were bridesmaids. The bridal party also included granddaughters Matilda and Lila as junior bridesmaids, and two-year-old Ella as flower girl, reports The Daily Telegraph.

Georgie and Alex, who live in London, got engaged in September 2020.

Kochie, a father of four and grandfather of six, announced last month he was taking three weeks’ leave so he can attend his daughter’s wedding in the UK.

‘We’re all sharing a house with him and his parents for a week before the wedding and we’ve never met them,’ he said on air on June 23. 

‘It’ll either be Father of the Bride or Nightmare on Elm Street,’ he joked.
