After getting engaged in May 2023, Jeff Bezos (61) and Lauren Sanchez (55) are preparing for a summer wedding in the romantic city of Venice. Invitations have reportedly been sent, confirming the event long anticipated since Bezos proposed with a massive diamond ring aboard his $500 million megayacht, Koru. Sanchez has mentioned her dress choice, possibly an Oscar de la Renta piece selected with guidance from Vogue's Anna Wintour.
While the exact venue remains unconfirmed, reports suggest luxury hotels like the Gritti Palace and the Aman (site of George and Amal Clooney's 2014 vows) are fully booked around late June, fueling speculation. Bezos's yacht Koru might play a role in festivities, but regulations likely prevent it from being the primary location.
The guest list is anticipated to be star-studded, reflecting the couple's connections across tech, entertainment, and politics, potentially including figures like Bill Gates, Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian, and possibly even Donald Trump. The celebration's scale is expected to be immense, reflecting Bezos's status as one of the world's wealthiest individuals (estimated worth $212 billion).
This wedding follows their high-profile relationship which began in 2019, leading to divorces from their respective previous spouses, MacKenzie Scott and Patrick Whitesell. Sanchez, a former Emmy-winning journalist and licensed pilot, plans to take Bezos's name. Before the wedding, she is also set for an 11-minute sub-orbital space flight on Bezos's Blue Origin rocket, leading an all-female crew.
This wedding is set to be a landmark event. What are your predictions for the wedding of the century? Let us know!
