The award for hippest wedding entertainment goes to Sofia Richie. At Sofia, 24, and Elliot Grainge’s wedding on April 22 at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, France, several prominent family members performed in addition to the 24-year-old model’s father, legendary artist Lionel Richie, who played the piano and sang.
Since saying “I do,” Sofia has posted brief clips of video from the wedding weekend and of her wearing her Chanel gown on social media. On April 24, a new video was uploaded on TikTok that features excerpts from Lionel’s performance. Nicole Richie, Sofia’s sister, calls their father “Lionel effing Richie” in the film before it cuts to him singing “Stuck on You.”
Additionally, there is video of Sofia practicing her walk-down the flower-lined aisle while her friends sing Stephen Sanchez’s “Until I Found You”—a footage of the actual aisle walk and Sanchez performing his song is shown immediately after.
Joel Madden, Nicole Madden’s husband, and Benji Madden, a member of the band Good Charlotte, also performed their hit song “Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous” during what appeared to be an afterparty. Sofia can be seen jumping about on stage with the rockers in the moment’s footage.
Heading into the wedding day, Sofia’s friends had shared photos from France on Instagram, including snaps from her bridal breakfast. Guests at the wedding included family friend Paris Hilton; Cameron Diaz; and Summer Fridays cofounders Lauren Ireland and Marianna Hewitt.
Sofia previously shared a video from her wedding on TikTok in which she tosses her bouquet to her wedding party. It’s unclear who catches the flowers, but the video does reveal a better look at the detailing on the bride’s stunning white dress.
Nicole also shared a photo of her adjusting her little sister’s train on Instagram. She captioned the sweet pic, “I love you more than anything.” Sofia responded, “I love you more than life.”
Sofia and Grainge first got together in 2021. Sofia confirmed their romance on Instagram in April 2021 with a carousel of photos of the pair. A year later, Grainge proposed to Sofia with a gorgeous emerald-cut diamond ring. “Forever isn’t long enough @elliot,” she captioned the post.
Not long after their engagement was announced, Sofia’s famous father revealed he was thrilled for his daughter and Grainge. “I love Elliot,” the “Hello” singer told Access Hollywood at the time. “I’ve known him since he was 12 . . . It was one of those things where I don’t have to go back and check out the kid. I know who it is.”
