Grammer wore a “royal-inspired” Malan Breton gown and was escorted by her father Joseph Donatacci as she walked down the aisle to meet her groom.
“The sky was blue, the sun was setting, a breeze was blowing and it was so romantic,” recalls Grammer. “It was like something out of a fairy tale. And there was a rainbow. To me, that means we’ve made it over the rainbow and found each other. This is our new life.”

After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a meal with “Hawaiian flair” that included a filet, local fish wrapped in banana leaves, poi and taro chips. “We wanted everything to be really authentic,” says Grammer, reports PEOPLE.
The party got lit - literally - when fire dancers wowed the crowd, as well as hula and traditional Hawaiian dancers. And then the party really began. “There was eating, drinking and dancing,” says Grammer. “Kyle and I were cutting a rug!”
When the reception finally wound down at 11:30pm, Grammer says she was grateful for her perfect day. “I’m so excited to share my life with David,” says Grammer. “It was a spectacular day, and I feel just wonderful.”
