Love was in the air as Alex Warren performed at the 2024 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City.

The singer, 24, performed his hit "Carry You Home" during the yearly festivities down the heart of Manhattan on Nov. 28, appearing on Kinder's workshop-in-the-clouds float. NBC co-host Savannah Guthrie introduced the singer as "fresh off his global tour" before he began to sing.

For the performance of the love ballad, Warren was joined by New York City Ballet principal dancers Tiler Peck and Roman Mejia, who recently got engaged on Sept. 15, 2024.

Warren's song, originally released in May 2024, was written as a wedding song for his wife Kouvr Annon, who he married in June 2024. The music video was released that same month and featured sweet behind-the-scenes moments from their nuptials.

"This night felt like a fairy tale, I imagined this day my entire life but it was so much better than I could ever imagine," Warren wrote in the YouTube caption at the time. "Im a married man now, and it feels AMAZING."

Not to mention this year marks the first time the musician is spending the holiday away from his usual family traditions. "I've only ever been home for Thanksgiving, so that's going to be very cool to be somewhere else for it," he adds.

Warren experienced another exciting milestone earlier this year when he married his longtime partner Kouvr Annon. They tied the knot in a romantic garden ceremony at the Ethereal Gardens in Escondido, Calif., on Saturday, June 22.

"Getting married is extremely important to me," Warren told PEOPLE at the time. "When I met Kouvr and the way she made me feel, I never wanted to let go of that feeling."
