Jeff Bezos, together with Lauren Sánchez, plans to host one of the most spectacular weddings of this year. The Amazon founder and his Emmy-winning fiancée are set to exchange vows in June at Venice in a ceremony that aims to become the definition of billionaire marital festivities. With a guest list packed with world leaders, Hollywood elites, and tech titans, Bezos’s wedding isn’t just a personal milestone—it’s a global event.
For months, speculation swirled over where Jeff Bezos, the world’s third-richest man, would say “I do.” Now, all signs point to Venice. The couple has long had a deep connection to the city, making it a fitting backdrop for their dreamy celebration. According to reports, two of Veniece’s most famous hotels—the seven-star endeavour of Aman Venice and the celebrated Gritti Palace — have already sold out from 26th June until the 29th.
Then there’s Koru, Bezos’s $500 million superyacht, which was initially thought of as the wedding venue itself. Though sources deny this now, the boat—one of the world’s most expensive and biggest sailing vessels ever—is set to have a role in the celebrations. In all likelihood, it will act as a floating palace for pre-wedding festivities, private guest excursions, and even the departure point for the newlyweds’ honeymoon.
When billionaires wed, the world’s most powerful figures RSVP “yes.” This event will be no different. Invitations have reportedly been sent to a mix of Hollywood royalty, tech moguls, and political heavyweights.
Among the expected attendees: Leonardo DiCaprio, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, and fashion icon Diane von Furstenberg. Media personalities such as Gayle King and Eva Longoria will also be in attendance, along with A-list couples like Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom.
One name on the guest list is causing significant buzz—former U.S. President Donald Trump. Jeff Bezos, who was once one of Trump’s most vocal critics, has reportedly rekindled his relationship with the former president, even attending his inauguration earlier this year. His presence at the wedding, alongside other political figures, will no doubt make headlines.
The couple, who got engaged in 2023, have made no secret of their admiration for each other. Jeff Bezos previously told CNN, “Lauren is the most generous, most big-hearted person that you would ever meet. She never misses a birthday. The network of people that she gives birthday presents to is gigantic. And that’s just a small example.”
Their relationship has been highly publicized, from romantic yacht getaways to red-carpet appearances. “We’re really great teammates, and we also have a lot of fun together. And we love each other,” said Jeff Bezos.
When Lauren Sánchez walks down the aisle, she will do so in a gown that could define wedding fashion for years to come. According to reports, she has enlisted Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour as an advisor for her wedding dress selection, and all signs point to a custom Oscar de la Renta creation.
Given Lauren Sánchez’s penchant for bold fashion, expect intricate detailing, dramatic silhouettes, and a high-fashion moment that will dominate social media. “She’s always been glamorous, but for her wedding day, she wants something truly timeless,” a fashion industry insider told Page Six.
Jeff Bezos, worth an estimated $200 billion, is not one to do things modestly. From his $500 million yacht to his $165 million Beverly Hills estate, the Amazon founder’s lifestyle is defined by scale. His wedding is no exception.
While no official figures have been disclosed, insiders suggest that this wedding will outspend previous high-profile ceremonies, including Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s $42 million royal wedding. With Venice’s most luxurious venues booked, an elite guest list, and a fleet of water taxis reserved exclusively for the event, the final price tag could soar well into the nine-figure range.
Venice is no stranger to extravagant weddings—George and Amal Clooney famously tied the knot there in 2014. But Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s nuptials are expected to surpass anything the city has seen before.
From the exclusive locations to the guest list and the sheer scale of the festivities, this wedding isn’t just a celebration of love—it’s a power statement. In a world where billionaire weddings set new precedents for luxury, Bezos’s Venetian affair will be the one to beat.
And when the final vows are exchanged and the last champagne flute is raised, one thing will be certain: the billionaire wedding of the century will belong to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez.
