From Diamonds to Dolce: Inside Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s Lavish Venetian Wedding Weekend

A celebration of love, legacy, and luxury—Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez say “I do” in Venice with star-studded guests, couture fashion, and crystal-studded elegance over a dazzling three-day affair.

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez have officially tied the knot in a wedding that was as extravagant as it was intimate. The couple exchanged vows on Friday, June 27, 2025, in a breathtaking black-tie ceremony on the picturesque island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, Italy—surrounded by family, friends, and a guest list that could rival any Hollywood gala.

The wedding weekend was a grand affair, lasting three days and featuring everything from pre-wedding dinners to a glamorous pajama-themed afterparty. Among the luminaries in attendance were Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Brady, Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Karlie Kloss, and Usher. Not to mention global icons like Queen Rania of Jordan, Bill Gates with partner Paula Hurd, and fashion royalty Domenico Dolce, Tommy Hilfiger, and Diane von Fürstenberg.

The couple’s children were present for the special occasion. Sánchez’s sons Nikko (24) and Evan (19) walked her down the aisle, while her 17-year-old daughter Ella, who served as maid of honor, wore a custom Dolce & Gabbana suit and delivered a heartfelt reading during the ceremony. Though it remains unconfirmed whether Bezos’ four children were present, the event remained an intimate family celebration at its core.

Lauren Sánchez stunned in a corseted, mermaid-style gown by Dolce & Gabbana, inspired by the dress worn by Sophia Loren in the 1958 classic Houseboat. Made from hand-appliquéd Italian lace and adorned with 180 silk chiffon-covered buttons, the gown reflected Sánchez’s transformation over the years. “I am a different person than I was five years ago,” she told Vogue, referencing her evolution in both personal style and life.

Adding a touch of glamour, Sánchez wore Dolce Alta Gioielleria Miracolo diamond earrings—crafted from a single stone and inlaid in white gold. They were so precious they were delivered by armored van under guard. For her “something blue,” Sánchez wore a keepsake from her Blue Origin spaceflight, symbolizing the convergence of Bezos’s aerospace ambitions and their shared journey.

Her fashion choices didn’t stop there. For the wedding dinner, she wore a Rita Hayworth-inspired gown with a sweetheart neckline. At the reception, she dazzled in a custom Oscar de la Renta dress embroidered with 600 yards of hand-sewn chain and 175,000 crystals. To cap it all off, the post-wedding pajama party saw her in a crystal mesh Atelier Versace ensemble complete with a matching gown.

Guests didn’t leave empty-handed. They received curated Venetian gift bags, complete with plush Amazon-branded slippers for the ladies and Vibi Venezia velvet slippers for the men—an elegant nod to the couple’s worlds uniting.

Shortly after the ceremony, Sánchez updated her Instagram handle to “Lauren Sánchez Bezos” and shared the first official photo of the wedding, capturing the joy of their new chapter together. She captioned the image simply: “06/27/2025 ♥️.”

Their wedding marked the culmination of a love story that began in 2019 and was confirmed publicly in 2023 with their engagement. While their romance has unfolded in the spotlight, their wedding felt deeply personal—a blend of old Hollywood glamour, Venetian elegance, and modern love.

From priceless diamonds to pajama couture, Jeff and Lauren’s celebration wasn’t just a wedding—it was a statement of style, partnership, and a future built together.
