Grace and Tyler hosted 189 guests at the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda on April 14, 2023, under warm white uplighting that switched to purple for the last songs.

The grand entrance took a while on purpose. Their MC, Mitchell DeGuzman, warmed up the room, and every wedding party pair walked in to its own song, from Run DMC to BTS’s “Butter.” Grace and Tyler came in to Kanye West’s “Flashing Lights” with the uplights synced to the track.

After a money dance and a dress change, the floor opened with “Good Life.” They sent guests outside for the exit and took a private last dance to John Mayer’s “XO” before leaving to Kygo’s “Firestone.”
