“We’ve been waiting for 18 years,” her father said. But Maria quickly interjected with a small correction: “20 [years]!”

The TV host also shared with her mother that an unlikely source gave her some inspiration before the big day: “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” matriarch Kris Jenner.

“You know what, Mom? Kris Jenner told me at Christmas Eve the other night… She said, ‘Tomorrow’s never promised,’ and she’s right. And I love you, and I want you to be there, and it’s gonna be amazing!”

Steve Harvey is set to perform the wedding ceremony live.
