"Not only have we found a new home together, we have found the perfect place for our exciting new projects to live with A&E Network," McCarthy and Wahlberg said in a joint statement.
"We're so excited about this deal and look forward to a long and successful relationship creating entertaining and provocative unscripted programming with our partners at A&E. Our feeling is, who better to make our first show for the network about than about us? We love working together and with our crazy schedules this gives us the chance to both work and play together."
The 10-episode series will mark the launch of Walhberg and McCarthy's own production company called D&J Productions.
"We're thrilled to join Donnie and Jenny as they begin the next chapter of their lives," added A&E executive vice president Dave McKillop. "Viewers have enjoyed following their relationship on Wahlburgers and we look forward to sharing this next part of their journey."
Production on Donnie Loves Jenny is currently underway. Besides the premiere, each episode will be a half-hour long.
The series will kick off with behind-the-scenes moments from the couple's wedding and the events that follow their nuptials, including how they'll blend their families and daily routines.
Donnie Loves Jenny is being produced by 44 Blue Productions in association with D&J Productions. Wahlberg, McCarthy, Rasha Drachkovitch, Lily Neumeyer and Devon Graham are serving as executive producers.
