An insider told The Sun: 'Danny and Jo were very emotional about Dani getting married. She was their first born and she was there through all the highs and lows.
'They couldn't be more proud and they love Jarrod like a son. Danny walked her down the aisle. Jo joked that they should both do it but they're keeping it traditional.
'Jo made sure Danny's speech wasn't outrageous.'
The source added that their wedding gift to their daughter was paying for her hen do and her £10,000 dress.
Dani and Jarrod's two-year-old twin daughters were flower girls, with her son Santiago, four, and brother Arty, 11, as page boys.
Days before the ceremony, Dani opened up about the touching role her dad Danny would play in her wedding to Jarrod.
She told of how her father and beloved EastEnders star would walk her down the aisle in a moment that would be 'filled with emotion'.
Speaking on their joint podcast, Live and Let Dyers, Dani revealed she was keeping her wedding dress a surprise from her dad until the big day to honour a special tradition.

'Have you not seen that first look when the dad sees their daughter in their dress and that? Oh, it's lovely,' she shared.
'Yeah, your dad's not meant to see it – it's a moment for the dad as well!'
Dani has had a whirlwind few months, filled with two lavish hen parties and all the excitement of getting ready for her big day.
Speaking to Heat magazine earlier this week, Dani said: 'I have finally done my table plans now. Until you are in there writing names out, making sure you have tables of 10, it's the most stressful experience ever - that's the only thing I've not enjoyed.'
Dani also revealed she will take on a double-barrell surname after the wedding, becoming Dyer-Bowen.
She said: 'I am going to keep the Dyer - I am going to do Dani Dyer-Bowen just because of my work. I feel like if I am Dani Bowen, it takes that thing away from me. We are double-barrelling it.'
The wedding will undoubtedly be an emotional day for Dani's father Danny, with the reality star saying he and West Ham star Jarrod are very close.
'We've joked so many times that Jarrod is marrying the wrong Dani Dyer!' she said.
The mother-of-three added she has really enjoyed the build up to the big day, which included a recent hen night in Ibiza with her pals.
Sparing no expense with her lavish nuptials, the bride-to-be shared a glimpse of her wild celebrations on Instagram, which included a boozy brunch, a boat trip and a raucous night in the lavish nightclub Ushuaia.
Dani and Jarrod have been dating since 2021 and share twin two-year-old daughters Summer and Star, while Dani also has son Santiago, four, with her ex-boyfriend Sammy Kimmence

A source told The Sun that Dani really splashed the cash during her hen celebrations, including a VIP night at Ushuaia that cost at least £8,000.
The insider said: 'Dani might have flown on a commercial flight but they splashed the cash when they landed.
'She spent Friday night at Ushuaia where they were on a VIP table with a minimum spend of £8,000. The next day they hired a boat to go around the coast before spending the rest of the time chilling at the Hard Rock hotel.
'Dani also had a boozy brunch at Beso Beach where her mates put on Jarrod masks and sang ABBA songs with her.
'They spent their last night at super club Hï Ibiza where they had a VIP booth. There were some sore heads when they touched down at City airport.'
Meanwhile, Jarrod jetted off to Las Vegas for his stag do as he prepared to marry the Love Island star.
Ahead of the stag, Dani admitted her fears over Jarrod's trip, with her dad Danny joking that there would be strippers.
Discussing the plans for the hen and stag parties, the daughter and father duo butted heads over one racy topic.
Explaining the timeline on their Live And Let Dyers podcast, Dani explained: 'I literally get back from my Hen on the Monday and then I get married on the Saturday. And if you can go, Jarrod gets back Thursday and then married Saturday.'
That's when Danny cheered and shouted out: 'Strippers!,' much to his daughter's dismay.
'No, you're not,' insisted Dani, who went on to explain that at a different Hen she attended, they had a butler in the buff.
Dani said: 'We had to draw him, we had to draw the naked man. It's different, it's so different. I don't care.'
Not giving in, Danny quipped: 'It's sexism this, this is sexism at its height ladies and gentlemen.'
The former Love Island star replied: 'It's not sexist, I'm just saying he was literally standing there in his apron and then you had to draw him. Then he turns around and straddles the chair.'
