Congratulations are in order for Grace Kelly’s granddaughter!

Charlotte Casiraghi, 32, tied the knot with film producer Dimitri Rassam, 37, during a civil ceremony in Monaco on Saturday, according to the Paris-based PR and communication agency Françoise Dumas. 

Casiraghi is the daughter of Monaco’s Princess Caroline and granddaughter of Princess Grace of Monaco, formerly known as the Oscar-winning actress Grace Kelly. 

Rassam is the son of French actress and model Carole Bouquet.

USA TODAY has reached out to the Consulate General of Monaco for confirmation.

Casiraghi and Rassam said “I do” at Monaco’s Prince’s Palace seven months after welcoming their first child together, son Balthazar, in October 2018. They each have a child from previous relationship.

For the ceremony, Casiraghi wore a long-sleeve, short brocade wedding dress by Yves St Laurent that featured three gray bows in the center. The groom opted for a traditional navy suit with a light blue tie. 

The bride went more traditional during a reception at the Villa La Vigie on the French Riviera in a white strapless Chanel gown, channeling her famous grandmother with slicked-back hair and a piece of her jewelry.

Casiraghi wore Princess Grace’s diamond Cartier necklace, which was a wedding gift to the Hollywood icon from her husband Rainier III, Prince of Monaco, in 1956.

The necklace is approximately 64 carats, according to Nadine Coleno’s 2009 book “Amazing Cartier: Jewelry Design since 1937.”

This is Casiraghi’s first marriage and Rassam’s second.

The couple sparked engagement rumors in March 2018 after Casiraghi wore a pink diamond sparkler on her ring finger at Monaco’s annual Rose Ball in March 2018.
