If it were me Id
1) ditch the hand held. They sound awful, pop like mad, look rubbish on camera and are rarely held consistently in the right place to make the audio good.
2) put my g3 on the speaker (inverted to reduce plosives)
3) put the receiver into the mixer to supply Pa
4) take a feed from the mixer for my recording

CARE! personal mics arent always best for PA applications and can be prone to feedback if driven too hard. Mke sure the levels are carefully set up and itll be fine

Do get an ISO of the main speaker
ie a complete recording of his mic on its own channel not affected by the mix at all. It will be important as he is the moderator

I think an issue you will run into if 1 mic is wireless and 1 is wired but they both contain the SAME persons voice is that there will be a DELAY on the radio mic signal. This may be less than a frame so nudging it in a video editor wont be possible to sync perfectly, and having both open in the mix can cause phasing issues or make your audio go rather metallic sounding.
Id try to use only 1

Id put a personal radio on everyone and get someone to mix it, whilst keeping a iSO feed to the presenter

Same reason as youd use a professional in any other walk of life.
Unless youre really good or can spend a lot of time on it, it wont be as good as a pro can get it.

Hi Ty
re PS. The noise reduction in FCP X can sometimes be surprising.

Do you have fcpx. I don’t, but Im wondering what options exist in fcpx to export audio (with handles obviously) to a sound dub studio.?
Either an OMF2 or aff file with embedded media?

Im not familiar with Audition. I dare say that it can manage cross mixes etc so in the context of your question I expect it can cope, but I dont use it.
I learned on the now defunct AMS audiofile platform, and moved across to Pro Tools HD many years ago. It is the “industry standard” pro studio tool (certainally in the UK and globally I expect) but it will be a steep learning curve.

Atmos or buzz tracks are a recording , perhaps 30 secs) using the same mics, mic position and ambient room noise and levels, but no noises or words. This track then becomes very useful for patching and mixing a seamless audio track as you should have it for all scenes.
Often referred to as wild tracks too.

Hi Ty
How do you find de verb when used in anger?
I often find it goes a bit watery before enough removal?
