The Duaa is


بارك الله لكم‏ وبارك عليكم وجمع بينكما في خير
barak Allahu lakum wa barak 'aleikum wa jama' bainakuma fi khair.

Meaning: May Allah bless you, surround you with blessings, and bring you both together in virtue and prosperity

Below are references for this dua', the first is from the collection of "Sunan ibn Majah" and the second is from "Musnad al-imam Ahmad". Please note that the second reference also indicates that the customary congratulation suggested in an earlier answer has been forbidden for Muslims:

‏عن ‏ ‏أبي هريرة ‏أن النبي ‏ ‏صلى الله ‏عليه وسلم ‏ ‏كان إذا ‏ ‏رفأ ‏ ‏قال‏ بارك الله لكم‏ وبارك عليكم وجمع بينكما في خير‏

It was reported by Abu Huraira that when somone was united in marriage, the prophet ‏صلى الله ‏عليه وسلم would say barak Allahu lakum ..."


‏عن ‏ ‏عبد الله بن محمد بن عقيل ‏ ‏قال ‏
‏تزوج ‏ ‏عقيل بن أبي طالب ‏ ‏فخرج علينا فقلنا ‏ ‏بالرفاء ‏ ‏والبنين فقال ‏ ‏مه ‏ ‏لا تقولوا ذلك فإن النبي ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏قد نهانا عن ذلك وقال ‏ ‏قولوا بارك الله لك وبارك عليك وبارك لك فيها ‏

"It was reported by Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn 'aqil, he said: 'aqil ibn Abi Talib got married then he came out to us so we said bilrafa`i walbaneen, so he said wait! Do not say this, for the prophet ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم has forbidden us from this and [he] said 'say may Allah bless you, surround you with you blessings and bless her for you'".
