The couple’s religious ceremony took place on April 19, 1956 at Saint Nicholas Cathedral in front of 600 guests and 30 million television viewers. Kelly wore a now-iconic ivory gown with lace sleeves and embroidered seed pearls, put together by Helen Rose and three dozen seamstresses. Rainier and Grace later enjoyed a wedding luncheon and drove around town in a cream and black Rolls Royce offered by the people of Monaco as a wedding gift.

Kelly and Rainier had both civil and religious weddings. The 40-minute civil ceremony took place in the Palace Throne Room of Monaco on April 18, 1956, and was broadcast across Europe. To cap the ceremony, the 142 official titles (counterparts of Rainier's) that Kelly acquired in the union were formally recited. The following day the church ceremony took place at Monaco's Saint Nicholas Cathedral. Kelly's wedding dress, designed by MGM's Academy Award–winning Helen Rose, was worked on for six weeks by three dozen seamstresses.
