Celebrity couple Al Roker and Deborah Roberts’ daughter, Leila Roker, is set to have not one, but two wedding celebrations with her fiancé Sylvain Gricourt in the near future, with ceremonies planned in both the U.S. and France.
Roberts shared this exciting news on Live with Kelly and Mark, mentioning the need for a “small ceremony” in France due to Leila residing in Paris. The couple’s 26-year-old daughter announced her engagement to Gricourt back in March, setting the stage for what promises to be a joyous journey to marriage.
The decision to have dual celebrations was prompted by Leila’s connection to France and the necessity of an intimate gathering there before the couple’s main event back home in the U.S. The idea of two weddings was met with enthusiasm, with Roberts playfully mentioning that they might “blow the budget” on the second celebration.
Despite the challenges of planning two weddings, the family is already deep into preparations. Roberts expressed confidence in their progress, saying, “We have plans going and I think we’ve got everything done.”
Leila’s engagement to Gricourt was a picturesque affair in Venice, Italy, as shared on social media. The couple marked this significant milestone with heartfelt captions, reflecting on their journey together and the love they share as they embark on this new chapter.
As the excitement builds for the upcoming nuptials, the family looks forward to the wedding day in 2026. Roberts teased that they were still finalizing the details but assured that it would be a year to remember for the couple and their loved ones.
Both Roberts and Roker have expressed their delight in being involved in the wedding planning process, with Roberts eagerly anticipating dress shopping with her daughter and Roker hinting at the possibility of walking Leila down the aisle.
The love and joy surrounding Leila and Gricourt’s journey to marriage serve as a beacon of hope and happiness, resonating with fans and well-wishers alike. The dual celebrations in two beautiful locations symbolize the merging of two hearts and two cultures, creating a truly special union.
As the wedding plans continue to unfold, the anticipation and excitement only grow stronger, with family, friends, and fans eagerly awaiting the day when Leila and Gricourt will exchange vows and begin their life together as husband and wife.
