The picture shows the bride and groom surrounded by the Norwegian royal family as well as their wedding party and Märtha Louise's three daughters - Maud, Leah and Emma. Also in the photo were other royal guests, including Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden, her husband Prince Daniel, and her brother Prince Carl Philip and his wife Princess Sofia.
In the photograph, Märtha Louise , 52, dazzled in her Tina Steffenakk Hermansen wedding dress, complete with a 3.5 metre-long train, while Californian shaman, Durek, looked dapper dressed in a black tuxedo and trousers with a gold cummerbund and tie knot, in a nod to 1700s court dress.
Two additional images were released earlier in the day as part of HELLO! and HOLA!'s exclusive coverage. One breathtaking snapshot showed the couple after exchanging vows in front of their 350 guests. A second image showed the bride gazing into her groom's eyes with the majestic backdrop of the fjords behind them.
Märtha Louise and Durek are married
The pair enjoyed a three-day wedding extravaganza featuring a boat trip along the Geiranger Fjord to Geiranger village and a Latin American-themed pre-wedding party at Hotel Union.

Ahead of their nuptials, Martha, the daughter of King Harald V and Queen Sonja, said: "I had decided not to get married again. But after meeting Durek in 2018, I changed my mind.
"For me, getting married will seal the closeness between us. It's a way of elevating the energy and entering into a new phase of our relationship."

Meanwhile, Durek, 49, described marriage as "a very spiritual thing" before adding: "It's letting the world know this is the person I love in a declaration before family, friends and God."
Durek has been warmly welcomed by Martha's family. Musing on his decision to seek permission from her parents, King Harald and Queen Sonja, Durek told HELLO!: "I have old school views on courtship, and asking for Martha's hand in marriage was about respect.
"The King and Queen asked me questions about myself and the future, and went quiet for a bit. I was sweating as I waited for their response - and then they turned to me and said they'd love to have me as part of the family."
