Weddings are always a big deal, but when it’s the daughter of a global superstar, it’s extra special. Sofia Richie, daughter of the legendary singer Lionel Richie, had a wedding over the weekend that will be remembered for years to come. Her wedding in the South of France was nothing short of spectacular.
Sofia, a model, married British record executive Elliot Grainge in an incredibly beautiful ceremony. The South of France provided the perfect setting for their big day.
Sofia was born on August 24, 1998, to Lionel Richie and his second wife, Diane Alexander. The couple divorced in 2004. Sofia has been in the limelight for a while and has previously been linked to Justin Bieber and Scott Disick.
For her wedding, Sofia wore three custom-made dresses from the iconic fashion house Chanel.
Her first look was a stunning high-neck, long-sleeved Chanel Haute Couture gown, which she wore to her rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding. The gown was covered in intricate beads and looked absolutely breathtaking.
In a video shared by Vogue, Sofia said, “I’m scared to move because I don’t want to ruin one bead.” She added, “This is like a fairytale. It really is. It’s like an art piece. I feel like a princess, I really do!”
To complete her look, she wore diamond drop earrings from House of Harlow 1960, designed by her older sister Nicole Richie. Nicole was thrilled about it and posted on Instagram, “Making these earrings for my sister is a moment I will never forget.”
On the wedding day itself, Sofia dazzled in another Chanel Haute Couture dress with a halter neckline. She paired this dress with a sparkling veil and styled her hair in a low chignon.
Her natural, glowing makeup made her look radiant. Sofia shared a video of herself tossing her bouquet, giving her followers a glimpse of her stunning wedding outfit.
For the after-party, Sofia changed into her third Chanel custom dress—a chic Haute Couture two-piece minidress. She loved this outfit and said, “This, to me, is like my little girl dream. And the fact that it is inspired by Claudia Schiffer’s runway dress is iconic and dope.”
Sofia and Elliot began dating in 2021 and got engaged a year later. Before the wedding, Sofia converted to Judaism to honor Elliot’s faith.
The ceremony was absolutely gorgeous. We wish the happy couple all the best! Be sure to share this beautiful wedding story with your friends and family so they can enjoy it too!
