This weekend, on April 22th, Lionel Richie’s daughter, Sofia Richie, tied the knot with 30-year-old music producer Elliot Grainge in a beautiful ceremony on the French Riviera. The 24-year-old looked stunning in a body-hugging Chanel gown with a cross-over neckline, a train, and a beautiful veil. Her wedding dress also had a sweet and special touch, embroidering the couple’s initials and wedding date.
Lionel Richie walked his daughter down the aisle
The bride walked down the aisle with her famous dad, while the groom, dressed in a suit and bow tie, was escorted by his parents.
As the ceremony was about to begin, a beautiful moment was captured between the bride and her father, who was photographed giving her a loving kiss on the forehead while waiting to pose for the cameras.
In a stunning location
The wedding took place at the luxurious Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, which was decorated with beautiful white flowers, matching the interior decor.
This is one of the luxurious hotels in the area, a favorite among celebrities, and whose gardens have hosted several events, such as the fashion show of the late designer Karl Lagerfeld, who presented his Chanel collection there in 2011.
The guest list included famous names such as Paris Hilton, who wore a silver dress with a plunging neckline, and her husband Carter Reum.
Cameron Diaz attended with her husband Benji Madden and their daughter Raddix, who wore a pink dress with boots.
Of course, the bride’s sister Nicole Richie, Lionel Richie’s adoptive daughter, was also present with her husband, Joel Madden (Cameron Diaz’s brother-in-law). Nicole wore a beautiful dark blue dress with a unique geometric neckline and tied her hair in a tight bun.
Influencers Charlotte Bickley and Tania Shroff, good friends of Sofia, were also among the guests, along with model Talita von Furstenberg.
The newly weds, Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge, were photographed kissing. Grainge proposed to Sofia in Hawaii on April 19th, 2022. “Forever is not enough,” wrote Sofia on social media alongside their engagement photos. Sofia is Lionel Richie’s daughter from his second marriage to Diane Alexander.
