Jeff Bezos June Wedding – But Is Venice Ready?
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are finally officially ready to walk down the aisle. The billionaire and his long-time fiancée plan to tie the knot in Venice, Italy. Some people are concerned that an extravagant wedding will be far too chaotic for Venice’s locals, but Mayor Luigi Brugnaro is doing everything in his power to shut that narrative down.
Here’s what the mayor’s saying about this whole ordeal — plus, here’s how Lauren described her internal monologue and mindset as Jeff’s fiancé in a cryptic Instagram post not long ago.
Details About Jeff and Lauren’s Venice Wedding
Mayor Brugnaro has high hopes that the Bezos/Sanchez wedding won’t wreak too much havoc in the city of Venice. He said, “We are mutually working and supporting the organizers to ensure that the event will be absolutely respectful of the fragility and uniqueness of the city.”
According to People, the city of Venice published a statement, writing, “The many speculations and fake news circulating about Jeff Bezos’ wedding day are completely unfounded. [It] is their utmost priority to make sure the city functions as normal for all, with no abnormal disruption to anyone.”
BTW, it’s no shock that people think Jeff and Lauren’s wedding will set off a feeding frenzy—there’s plenty of juicy drama fueling the buzz.
Jeff has a whopping net worth of $214 billion, according to Bloomberg. When you’ve got that level of wealth, you’re not just planning a wedding—you’re curating a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle.
Think private islands, designer everything, and a guest list dripping in fame and fortune. And in Venice? The possibilities are beyond cinematic. Picture a candlelit ceremony in a centuries-old palazzo, gondola arrivals down the Grand Canal, couture gowns sweeping through marble ballrooms, and an afterparty on a yacht anchored just off the lagoon. The cost of this wedding will be out of sight.
Jeff and Lauren have been dating since 2019, and engaged since 2023. Preparing for their upcoming wedding has clearly taken a while because they want to make sure each and every detail is perfection personified.
Jeff married his first wife, MacKenzie Scott, back in 1993—just a year before he launched Amazon. They were together for 25 years before calling it quits. So, it’s safe to say their nuptials weren’t on anyone’s radar. This time around, people assume Jeff is ready to go big or go home.
Venice is one of the most iconic vacation destinations on the planet. Couples glide along romantic Venetian canals in gondolas, feed the birds in the Piazza San Marco, or sip on Bellinis (at €25 a pop) at Hemingway’s old watering hole Harry’s Bar.
But… How elaborate and costly will Jeff’s wedding to Lauren actually be? According to CNN, 3 days of celebrations are planned from June 24 to 26, 2025. And the wedding is set to take place on Jeff’s $500 million super yacht, which will be conveniently anchored in the Venice lagoon. 200-ish guests will be present to celebrate the couple. We cannot wait to see any photos they’ll release to the press when the time comes.
Lauren Sanchez Has Been Cryptic on Social Media
If you’re curious to know how Lauren feels being engaged to someone with Jeff’s mega-wattage, she shared a cryptic Instagram message back in February.
Before Valentine’s Day 2025, Lauren uploaded a pic of herself in a private plane with a caption that said, “Some years start with turbulence, but that’s just the wind reminding you to spread your wings. Good to be back in the air… Here’s to flying farther than we ever imagined.”
Perhaps the “turbulence” she’s hinting at is just the nonstop spotlight that comes with being linked to someone like Jeff? Ever since they went public with their relationship, all eyes have been on Lauren.
Outsiders have endless questions about her—who is she, really? And how did she manage to charm her way into the inner circle of one of the richest, most powerful men on the planet. BTW… Lauren has a ton going for her – with or without Jeff.
Lauren Sánchez isn’t just Jeff Bezos’ fiancée—she’s got a headline-worthy résumé of her own. An Emmy-winning journalist, author, philanthropist, and licensed pilot (yes, really), she’s been flying high in more ways than one. Before stepping into the billionaire spotlight, she made waves as an entertainment reporter—a savvy move that put her right where the cameras love to linger.
At this point, it seems Jeff and Lauren are on track to making their Venetian wedding dreams pan out precisely the way they want.
